NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Donald Trump says he's going to make a decision once and for all about whether he'll mount a third party bid if he loses the Republican nomination for president.
Trump told reporters following a speech in Nashville Saturday that he's going to make a decision "very soon."
He says he thinks the decision will make a lot of people "very happy."
Trump has so far refused to pledge to support the eventual Republican nominee. He says it gives him leverage.
But his hands are largely tied: He'll have to sign a pledge to do so if he wants to appear on the ballot in South Carolina and potentially several other states.
Trump was courting tea party voters at a conference hosted by the National Federation of Republican Assemblies.
