Perot was too short, and had a high pitched annoying voice. His chances of winning were poor at best. On top of that he acted paranoid about someone crashing his daughter’s wedding and dropped out of the race, to rejoin later. He was a strange character. But he was patriotic.
Perot started to get close enough to win and the “establishment” then threatened his weak spot. He really didn’t want to be President. They knew it. He was gone. Trump may have to be shot.
