It will be interesting to see where his supporters go next... If they all go to Trump that could be bad.

From watching and reading independent journalists, owner-class media, and more, it seems, IIRC, a good amount of his supporters are for Trump.

It would help third parties if they left the duopoly, though.

a good amount of his supporters are for Trump.

Which could be a problem. This race is too close and any more support for Trump is dangerous.
