During both of Bill Clinton's campaigns, A wealthy lifelong democrat
showed up and started making conservative noises.
Ross Perot drew off enough votes to ensure a Clinton victory.
Just giving money, he would have been limited in how much he could contribute.
Running, his amount was unlimited.
1992
Nominee Bill Clinton George H. W. Bush Ross Perot
Percentage 43.0% 37.4% 18.9%
1996
Percentage 49.2% 40.7% 8.4%
Both elections Perot likely disrupted the election.

Fast forward 24 years, Another Clinton running, and another wealthy person
with a not so conservative past, is making conservative noises.
The Republicans establishment does not want Trump,
and he could draw off enough votes to change the election.

'cept Trump is winning. He's not some third party disruptor. Hell, even Cruz could go Independent and swing the vote.

The flaw in the plan could have been if Trump was too popular.
 
Why would Trump invest this much time, energy, and money into such a scheme?

That said, how cool would it be if Trump won and immediately after being sworn in he rips off his mask to reveal he is actually Andy Kaufman? :)

Better if Scooby Doo and the gang captured him and ripped off his mask.

Well, despite the claim he is funding his own campaign, the only money that he put into it was in the form of a loan.
