Donald Trump, Revoking a Vow, Says He Won’t Support Another G.O.P. Nominee

Donald J. Trump said on Tuesday night that he no longer vowed to
support the Republican nominee if it isn’t him, despite a loyalty pledge that all
Republican primary candidates signed last year.

“No, I don’t anymore,” Mr. Trump said at a town hall forum on CNN when
prompted by the moderator, Anderson Cooper. “No, we’ll see who it is.”
When Mr. Cooper pointed out that Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, Mr.
Trump’s chief rival for the nomination, had walked up to the line but not
crossed it in terms of saying he wouldn’t support the nominee, Mr. Trump
replied, “He doesn’t have to support me.”

Cruz "stopped short of saying he wouldn’t support Mr. Trump" but did not pledge to support him either.

Gov. John Kasich of Ohio was more explicit, saying that if the nominee is someone who “is really hurting the country and dividing the country,” then he just wasn’t sure.
