“I don’t know,” Trump said during a telephone interview with MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “I’m just chugging along. You know, maybe people will get tired of me. Who knows? This press is crazy,” he remarked.

Responding to another question about a report from The Hill that he could seek an independent bid if the Republican National Committee treats him poorly during the primary season, Trump said that the RNC is currently treating him “with tremendous respect.”

“The best way to win is to win as a Republican. I do not want to do independent at all. If I’m treated poorly, that’s one thing,” Trump said.
