The Federalist Papers : No. 68
"A small number of persons, selected by their fellow-citizens from the general mass, will be most likely to possess the information and discernment requisite to such complicated investigations."
"No senator, representative, or other person holding a place of trust or profit under the United States, can be of the numbers of the electors."
"But as a majority of the votes might not always happen to centre in one man, and as it might be unsafe to permit less than a majority to be conclusive, it is provided that, in such a contingency, the House of Representatives shall select out of the candidates who shall have the five highest number of votes, the man who in their opinion may be best qualified for the office."

So if Trump was to break off and run on his own and their are not enough electoral college delegates to make a majority after the vote the House Of Representatives would select the candidate most suitable to fill the office of the Presidency.
