Just so you understand, I’m not advocating for Trump to run 3rd party. I hope he doesn’t.
I am arguing against the conventional wisdom that Perot caused Bush to lose, which I don’t think is proven, or even provable.
The situation is so much different today what with the fraud that is happening in just about every election, I don’t see either Trump or DeSantis being allowed to win even in a two person race.
And as of now, we don’t even know if DeSantis is running.
I think most likely Perot caused Bush to lose as he siphoned off votes, how many it is not provable. Trump can’t get out of his own way as he alienates his own base like crazy...Just this weekend he alienated his biggest base the Christians.
