Perot was a better person, a man of integrity, and a much better businessman. And he would have made a great president. He got my vote twice.
I voted for Trump in 2016 because he was anti establishment and anti Clinton. Trump will not go down in history as a great president, but he's doing a decent enough job.
I was a big Perot supporter in 92. I have always agreed with him on trade and the national debt. He does share some similarities with Trump. The biggest difference between them however is temperament. Perot would not have engaged in all the silly feuds trump has and he would have run a more professional government. Perot would have made an excellent President IMO, if elected in 92 we could have avoided a lot of job loss and unnecessary federal spending. It was an opportunity to change our national direction and we blew it. Now we have 20 trillion in debt, massive foreign trade imbalances and all of Perots charts seem to have come true. President Trump is trying to fix the trade problems but they are 30 years in the making and just a huge monstrous problem that may be bigger than one presidency.
RIP Ross Perot
Perot was from a different era. If he had to endure the mudslinging and daily character assassinations the Leftist/Democrats are doing to Trump, Perot no doubt would have taken to twitter today too to defend himself.
You can't be gentlemanly if the opposition plays dirty. He'd have no chance against the Left if he was the Perot of old. He'd be looked at as weak. See Romney.
Trump is doing exactly what he needs to do against such ferocious and hateful Leftists Democrats.

Wasn't Perot Trump before Trump was Trump. Most common criticism of Perot was that he was in it for his own self advancement, etc His own party accused him of that.
Perot was a patriot and he knew Trump was for this country he loved, as opposed to the current crop of socialist progressive radical Leftist Democrats.
I do not speak ill of the recently departed, but I do not think the following would be considered having done so.
Though I do not harbor any ill will toward Perot, never forget that he likely caused us to get Bill Clinton as president, rather than having Bush re-elected.
In modern day terms that means we still feel the effects of decades of Ruth Bader Ginsberg and Stephen Breyer on the scotus (not to mention all sorts of other leftist/liberal federal judges).
