Donald Trump may have to decide on that third-party run as soon as Sept. 30
If Donald Trump wants to participate in the South Carolina Republican primary, he'll need to have ruled out any plans for a third-party bid by the end of September, CNN reports.
Trump has repeatedly threatened the Republican Party with an independent bid, even though he has a commanding lead in the polls, with the latest from South Carolina showing him garnering the support of 30 percent of respondents. But he will need to submit a signed pledge to the GOP by Sept. 30 at the latest if he wants to compete in the Palmetto State's primary.
