sometimes I wonder where we would be right now if Ross Perot had been elected in 1992
He was the real Trump figure
He was the real billionaire
He was an honest to God WAR HERO
He was a sawed-off tiny little runt
And he single-handedly carried injured troops across enemy fire lines, showing the most amazing fucking courage and dedication, and refused any honors or medals afterwards, insisting he was just doing his job and didn't want any fanfare at all.
after his military service, he married his high school sweetheart, and asked her father for a $10,000 loan
unlike Trump, he turned that $10,000 loan into 4 billion dollars
He actually kind of invented the idea of personal computers... He was working for IBM, and one day he had an opportunity to meet the president of the company, and he introduced himself and told him "I envision everybody in the world having their own personal computer"
and the head of IBM told him "there are currently four computers on Earth, and that's three too many"
and Ross Perot promptly told him to his face "I QUIT!" Right there on the spot
So he started his own company and became a billionaire
when the Iran hostage situation occurred during Jimmy Carter's administration, America tried to send in the Delta Force but we all know what happened out in the desert that fateful night
meanwhile, Ross Perot had some of his employees held hostage in Iran, So he arranged a mercenary paramilitary raid, picking the very best special forces soldiers he knew and worked with in the past.
and being a true American hero, Perot insisted he would never send his men in to do a mission that he wasn't willing to do himself, so he also geared up and they flew into the compound with a helicopter and got ALL OF THEIR EMPLOYEES OUT OF THE COMPOUND and flew out without a single person being injured or killed
He was a mother fucking badass
In 1992 he correctly predicted every single thing that has happened that took us to the point where we are
