What if Donald Trump had gotten the reform party nomination for president in 2000? How well would he have done? who would have been his running mate? What would this have meant for the future of the reform party?
also, would he be running for president this year?
The republican party wasn't ready for him back then. They needed eight years of boiling turmoil and then a tea party revolution to demolish the establishment first. This election is a special one, the large number of people in the primaries give him a golden chance that comes once every 50 years or so.
Would Pat Buchanan have decided to run for the constitution party nomination after losing to Trump?
