H Ross Perot was in a third party.

Trump is running in the GOP.

Just saying. I supported Perot, but this is not the same.

In this case party doesn’t matter because for the nomination, each candidate IS essentially different party in some respects. And, in this contest, his candidacy represents a diversionary siphon of votes that could be cast for a couple of more earnest candidates who have a real chance at knocking Jeb Bush out of the nomination.

Trump isn’t serious about it and by the time he backs out, he may have already done the damage.

Actually pretty similar—both humongous egos diluting the real conservative vote.

First, don’t get your panties in a wad if Trump goes third party. It would be foolish to assume he’ll actually officially enter the Republican Primary. I”m not assuming he won’t, but you should not assume he will.

Second, his schtick is the same...just let me fix it...Perot and his “I’ll look under the hood, find out what’s wrong, and fix it” idiocy is just like Trumps bluster that he can negotiate Eskimos into buying ice from him.

Why do you keep falling for this?
