He helped the rapist get elected twice.
“He helped the rapist get elected twice.”
No he didn’t. If you look at the actual polling data Perot took more votes from Clinton than Bush in 92. In 96 he got less than half of what he got in 92, and Dole was never close. He did prevent Clinton from getting a majority instead of a plurality.
Old myths die hard, and that one is a favorite that the GOPe loves to repeat so they don’t have to acknowledge what lousy campaigns they ran.
