> Ross Perot who also ran for the Reform Party Like Trump
The Reform Party was created in an attempt (unsuccessful, but that's another story) to institutionalize the relative success of H. Ross Perot’s 1992 independent run, and qualified for federal matching funds in 2000 based on the (lesser) showing of Perot in the 1996 election under the party banner.
Trump, David Duke, and others sought to take advantage of those matching funds by running for the Reform Party nomination in 2000, but Trump’s run wasn't much like Perot’s.
