Donald Trump announced his first bid for President of the United States on October 7, 1999, as a member of the [[Reform Party]] (RPUSA). He ran on a platform of populism and [[electoral reform]]. Trump's campaign was initially endorsed by [[Jesse Ventura]], then the [[Governor of Minnesota]]. [[Ross Perot]], then a leading member of RPUSA, considered endorsing Trump for the upcoming [[primary election]], however ultimately decided not to endorse anyone. Ventura left RPUSA in February 2000, leaving Trump without any vocal support within the party for the primary. Trump officially ended his bid on February 14, 2000, instead endorsing the paleoconservative political activist [[Pat Buchanan]]. Buchanan went on to win the RPUSA nomination for the [[2000 American presidential election]].<ref>[https://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/presidential-campaign/256159-a-look-back-at-trumps-first-run/ A look back at Trump’s first run]</ref>
