Jesse Ventura to Go 3rd Party if Hillary Wins Nomination

ventura

Jesse Ventura, who won the governorship of Minnesota as an independent, says he is prepared to mount a 3rd party challenge if Hillary beats Bernie Sanders for the democratic nomination.  Although Ventura has had good words to say about Donald Trump, he says there are three areas where he disagrees with Trump.  They are foreign policy, ending the war on drugs and campaign finance.

“They’re setting the groundwork for me.  Because if Bernie loses, by the time we get to June, how sick are the people going to be of all these people?”

Ventura does say that he likes Trump and he likes the fact that he’s giving the republican party fits by not falling into line like the other candidates:

“I love what Trump’s doing to the Republicans. He’s got them in complete disarray.  In fact, it looks like the WWE when you watch their debates.”

Ventura also weighed in on the David Duke endorsement :

“Anyone can endorse you. Why is it up to the candidate to denounce any endorsement?  In our country you are free to vote for whoever you want to vote for. If David Duke wants to vote for Donald Trump, he’s welcome to do that. I think the media is out of line to think a candidate immediately has to denounce somebody.”                                                                                                                                                                                
For the record, David Duke says he never endorsed Trump, although he said he would probably vote for him.  He says the media made up his endorsement.  I can believe that.  They’ve lied about everything else.
