This already happened in 1992. By early summer, Ross Perot was LEADING in some of the polls. Then he hit the self-destruct button.

Then later that year, he got back into the race, just to make sure he would pull about a fifth of the electorate away from voting for Bush over Clinton.

And it worked! Despite acting as crazy as a bat, he got 19% of the country to vote for him that November.

Perot hated Bush and that is why he got back in the race to be the spoiler. He gave us the Clintons and that will be his epitaph.

Perot hated George Bush, period. But whatever were his motivations, what makes you think that Trump is a carbon copy of Perot?
