Most people know that Donald Trump was rumored to have considered a bid for the Presidency, as a Republican, in 1988. However, he was a Democrat up until 1987, and according to Wikipedia, "After rumors of a presidential run, Trump was invited by Democratic senator John Kerry of Massachusetts, House Speaker Jim Wright of Texas, and Arkansas congressman Beryl Anthony Jr., to host a fundraising dinner for Democratic Congressional candidates and to switch parties. Anthony told The New York Times that "the message Trump has been preaching is a Democratic message." So what if Trump did make the run that year, but as a Democrat and not a Republican?
