The worst hurricane (in modern times) we ever got in the Northeast was in 1938.

It must have been caused by pollution from all those Ford Model Ts.

Lol.

2020 Trump loss had many components.

1. voter fraud in purple states.
2. Mean tweets by Trump had turned off many voters who pined for someone to behave more presidential.
3. Trump made a dumb statement in spring 2020 that this Chinese virus is just another flu and will die away when warm summer weather arrives.
4. Biden played it smart by hiding in basement and wearing a burqa. Petrified seniors construed that as Biden was taking covid more seriously and would protect them better.
5. Voters wrongly assumed the good economy under Trump would just keep rolling along with mild mannered Biden.
6. Biden cloaked himself as a centrist.
7. Pence was not very effective debating Kamala during VP debate.

I like Ram. Don't care what my fellow Anti-Ram Freepers think or post. This guy can convey his ideas succinctly and he is a a successful businessman who is anti-Silicone Valley.

Is there a video of the complete exchange between PMSNBC AirheadAndrea and Vivik Ramaswamy, other than Vivik speaking while AirheadAndrea stares in a mental vaporlock (like CocaineMitch)?

Which other candidate has the courage to confront liberal lefty media SO EFFECTIVELY?

It doesn’t even appear difficult for him. I want to know what his IQ is. He’s a humdinger.

[entropy12]

Rammy has IQ off the charts. He can remember details and can enunciate those faster than any politician alive. And he smiles a lot while demolishing liberals. Even Bill Maher said to Rammy, you are a likable fellow.

[BigEdLB]

Ranaswamy has a Soros aura about him. Too bad. Seems a smart dude.

[Clutch Martin]

“Which other candidate has the courage to confront liberal lefty media SO EFFECTIVELY”

Ramaswamy forensically and pragmatically decapitates foul arguments and places the bloody mess back in the laps of the originator. Effectively leavings them stammering or rambling nonsensical gibberish in their feeble attempts to counter.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Arguing about the number of people who MIGHT have died because of climate change is a ridiculous fool's errand. It focuses on what MIGHT be instead of what is demonstrably true. He should throw this back in her face that fossil fuels have EXTENDED and SAVED BILLIOMNS of lives the past 100 years.

• The increased standard of living made possible with fossil fuels caused the average lifespan to increase from 30 years to 80 years over the past 150 years.
• The world's population was 1.6 billion in 1900 and is 8 billion today. That only occurred because of fossil-fuel derived fertilizer (urea from natural gas) and agricultural mechanization with diesel and gasoline engines. You could not use horse powered ag to feed 8 billion.
• The total number of people who have lived from 1900 to today is probably 20 billion (people living today as well as all who died in that period). If we didn't exploit fossil fuels, I'd wager that half of them would never have lived.

So fossil (and nuclear) fuels saved TEN BILLION lives. The blue dashed line below is a linear growth of global population with no fossil or nuclear fuels (i.e., no abundant, low-cost energy). The dots from 1900 to 2100 are actual world population WITH abundant energy.

He should ask Mitchell if she would have denied all those billions of longer, healthier lives without manual drudgery or denied all those billions life in the first place.

Some Republican needs to get versed on this and understand the untold benefits that we have reaped from fossil fuels. They are idiots for not doing that.

He might make good media spokesman in Trump’s administration

My (beloved lib) wife asked my opinion of Ramaswamy. My answer was "Trump Lite".

[NavyShoe]

When I read the name Andrea Mitchell I read it the way Rush used to say it.

[basalt]

hes a flake...but with the media, hes 5 stars!!...hes the one that got Don Lemon canned...that interview was a scream. He had Lemon almost in tears and hes looking at him with that goofy smile...good stuff.

[Migraine]

Roger that on point #1. Case closed, as I see it.

The other points seem like potshots through the rearview mirror.

Obviously, just my opinion.

[Blueflag]

The select few in the bend of FL can legitimately say that.

[RedMonqey]

Given that area being hit and the age of the Floridan being quota, sure
But that’s why antidotal evidence should be taken with a grain of salt.

I don’t know how many times I’ve read about”the worst murder scene I’ve ever seen” by some sheriff or cop.
Which sounds terrible but given that it’s a small town or city it’s not so remarkable.

I belonged to a country club (Royal Oaks golf and country club) for many years. I met all the local politicians there. They all hate confrontations. But I enjoyed their company because they were not prejudiced and were a happy bunch to play golf with and good fun on the 19th hole.

[entropy12]

Reason you are wrong is, Trump will win in 2024 proving my point that it is possible to overcome margin of fraud with other items. Unless of course he makes bad statements like he did about covid in 2020.

Voter fraud is an American institution. I became familiar living in Chicago when Nixon lost to JFK with dead people voting in Cook county. If voter fraud was omnipotent, Nixon-1968, Reagan-1980-1984, Bush-elder-1988, Bush-GWB-2000, Trump-2016 would not have been possible.

[Migraine]

Sorry — I guess we’re talking past each other.

I, too, believe Trump will win in 2024.
