Rep. Tom Cole, R-Okla., said Wednesday morning that it may be too late for a third party candidate to enter the presidential race, and that it’s mostly likely down to Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton at this point.
“I think it’s awful late for that,” he said when asked on “Morning Joe” about a third party option.
“Look, I think you’ve got three choices. You can vote for Hillary Clinton and elect her and lose the presidency, the Supreme Court, maybe the Senate, maybe the House,” he said. “You can vote for Donald Trump, we have a much better chance of being successful in the Senate and the House.”
“Or you can vote for a third party, and that’s almost always a wasted vote, and I think it would be this time,” he added.
Cole said it would take an “act of God” at this point for Trump to be unseated.
Trump won uncontested primaries in Nebraska and West Virginia Tuesday night.
