Based on what I have seen.
I could see him as a Trump VP.

If this guy is running a con it’s a good one. I would pay to watch a fair debate between him and that idiot Kamala

I'd give him a cabinet position that closes a half dozen agencies.

I like what Vivek says. But I’m afraid voters who support him will be as disappointed as his investors were after believing what he said.

It’s a shame some FReepers won’t just go listen to say, his first reply, about specifically how he wants to dismantle the FBI and reorganize federal law enforcement. You don’t hear anything this specific and logical from ANY other candidate.

But the good news is, Vivek’s future in politics has nothing to do with the opinions of FReepers. It largely depends on Trump - if he can’t run, Vivek’s boat will rise. If he does, and wins, then it seems pretty likely that a bright, young outsider like Vivek will have a place in Trump2.

Even if neither wins, we haven’t heard the last of him by any means. It’s leaders like Vivek that give me some hope for the future.

“Candidate Vivek” glibly expounds on any issue no matter how outlandish;
but a (God forbid) “President” Vivek would not say some of those things.

The wily Vivek needs....and desperately wants....attention.
And being a cunning slickster, he knows this is the way to do it;
say all the bombastic things that raise eyebrows.


Most of all he loves to hear the sound of his voice......
that makes him a poor VP candidate.....he’d be too eager to overshadow Trump.

This is like something Linda would say.
Impossible to ever get passed but feel good to GOP voters.

The only con this guy might be running that would be disqualifying is if he has 7+ years in politics and somehow has concealed it. Political experience disqualifies people since that defines the Swamp.

If he has 0 political experience, that means he is the only one qualified among the also-rans.

Politics is NEVER going back to what it was. The gasping about “the Republican party cannot possibly endure a nominee who is in jail”. Only the GOPe drawing a relevant paycheck cares if the Republican party endures. But it would find a way, simply because of those paychecks.

Never going back to what it was. Get used to it.

Make him the Agency Downsizing Czar, or assign the responsibility to him as VP. The massive administrative state has to be brought under control.

Did Vivek have a list of questions and answers given to him by Soros?

Just an observation. If I were running for president, the last thing I would want to do is pretend to be something I am not. Keeping track of lies at that level of national politics is nearly impossible to achieve. People would see right through the insincerity. The only way to be successful is by being yourself. At this point, I am giving Ramaswamy’s sincerity the benefit of the doubt.

Of course, I am voting President Trump, but would like to see Ramaswamy’s obvious talents utilized in the service of MAGA and America First. I hope President Trump interviews him for a position in his new administration.
