Post-Republican Debate Poll: Vivek Ramaswamy Deemed ‘Real Winner’
Breitbart ^ | 24 Aug 2023 | HANNAH BLEAU

Anti-woke businessman Vivek Ramaswamy has been deemed the “real winner” of the first Republican primary debate, according to a J.L.Partners/DailyMail survey released Thursday.

The survey asked registered Republicans, “Who do you think was the REAL winner of the debate?”

Twenty-two percent chose Ramaswamy, followed by 21 percent who said former President Donald Trump, despite the fact that he was not present at the debate. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis followed both Ramaswamy and Trump with 20 percent deeming him the “REAL” winner of the debate. No other candidate came close, as eight percent said former Vice President Mike Pence, six percent said South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, five percent chose former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, and three percent said former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum:

Who do you think was the real winner of the debate?

Ramaswamy 22%
Trump 21%
DeSantis 20%
Pence 8%
Scott 6%
Haley 5%
Burgum 3%
Christie 3%
Hutchinson 3%

The survey also asked respondents whom they believe had the “BEST debate performance.” Again, Ramaswamy took the lead, as 28 percent said he had the best debate performance, followed by DeSantis (27 percent), Pence (13 percent), Scott (eight percent), Haley (seven percent), Christie (four percent), Burgum (three percent), and Hutchinson (two percent). p>The survey was taken among 504 registered Republicans who watched the debate and has a +/- 4.4 percent margin of error.

Indeed, Ramaswamy had a few breakout moments, facing off against Haley over her support of financial aid to Ukraine. During the exchange, Ramaswamy asserted that

"Ronald Reagan used to be a Democrat. Same thing with Donald Trump."


At least they weren't anchor babies...

Of course he’s the winner. WEF and Soros, Inc. said so.

Ramaswampy lsot ground after the debate.

He’s down in polls and het betting markets.

It is a common belief on Free Republic, that Vivek is tied to George Soros, and or a tool of Soros, a Trojan horse is what some Freepers call him.

Vivek is a solid conservative and an American patriot who is MAGA all the way. But on this board, I have seen him called an illegal alien, an anchor baby, a Soros puppet, a WEF stooge, a Trojan horse, a Trogen horse (from Trogen, Switz.--what's wrong with that?), a Godless pagan and even a Communist. I have never seen so much hatred on this board for someone who is never indicated that he is anything but a conservative patriot.

Everyone knows President Trump won the debate without even attending.


It seems pretty evidently so.

Ramaswamy never took so much as a nickel from George Soros.


They are referring to accepting a scholarship from Paul Soros.

PD Soros Fellowships for New Americans
The Paul & Daisy Soros Fellowships for New Americans program honors the contributions of immigrants and children of immigrants to the United States. Each year, we invest in the graduate education of 30 New Americans—immigrants and children of immigrants—who are poised to make significant contributions to US society, culture or their academic field.

‘views’ means someone at least hovered over the video feed for at lease two seconds. Others who have spoken on the subject suggest that there may have been 20 million who actually watched it - which still blows away Fox’s numbers.

Because many do not know that there is more than one Soros in the world, nor that the ‘tie’ is simply accepting a post-grad scholarship in a professional, scientific, JD, or medical degree program.

So claims here say that more than double that watched a Tucker live-stream interview with President Trump.


For at least two seconds, on one of the X feeds which had a link on it. The figure is probably right, but the definitions of ‘watched’ are apples to speed-boats to each other.

There are a lot of changes in Trump circa 2012. He changed a lot of positions, beliefs, as well as behaviors, at about that time.

“He came to our after-party and he blatantly told us that he believes climate change is real,” Benji Backer, founder of the American Conservation Coalition, told CNN. “So, he changed his position again.”


Or Backer doesn’t understand the difference between Climate Change, and the Climate Change Agenda. For example, Bjorn Lomberg believes there is climate change, that humans have at least a part in it (though the portion of that part is questionable), and that the Climate Change Agenda is batshit crazy.

Maybe...but do you have any evidence of strings to the *scholarship* fund? It’s not a fund for politicians in training. It’s to pay for grad school in a professional, scientific, JD, or medical degree program. The scholarships I got involved no input from the giver aside from an offered visit to their business at one point, and a report of grades. This one’s qualifications appear to be just as limited, except that it is for immigrants and children of immigrants.
