First; Trump is not a Tea Partier.
Second; let's not get ahead of ourselves. The serious candidates are only just now getting their ducks in a row. No serious committed Tea Partier is considering a 3rd Party. The Tea Party is all about bringing the Republican Party back to it's conservative values or we will go after the RINO's who don't get the message and vote them out where we can; as in the last election.
Any one who is suggesting an independent run is not a true Tea Partier and is probably just a bomb thrower who's only purpose is to ruin the chances of the dominant party; knowing they can't win. That would be true whether it's Trump who would hurt Republicans or someone like Nader who hurts Democrats.
If a true Conservative runs as a true Conservative, they will win. Reagan proved that, and it would work again. Obama is Carter on steroids and he will be defeated by sincere Conservative effort. If it was someone even close to Reagan, the election itself wouldn't even be close.
