Vivek is a con man who can’t con.
What is the root cause of your obsession (hatred) of Ramaswamy ? I know what Reno’s is. Has to do with this employment decades ago. He was laid off/fired/replaced whatever.. and he is carrying a grudge which he projects onto Ramaswamy. But what is yours ?
haley
DeSantis
Desantis was a non factor, irrelevent. Vivek won. Best dressed? Sen Scott.
I didn”t like him.
Vivek had the money quote of the nite, “Man maded climate change is a HOAX!” He’s right!!!
Haley destroyed Vivek on foreign policy… best non-canned exchange
Any ticket with Haley’s name on it will get ZERO electoral votes in the south.
One of the symptoms of late stage TDS is constant foul mood swings.
“They can take it up with the Wikipedia gods...”
I think one of those Hindu gods is the creator and destroyer of worlds, so I gotta place my bets on them....
Lol.
Ramaswamy’s numbers will be going up after tonight. Every other candidate’s numbers will go down. Christie is the big loser tonight followed by DeSantis. DeSantis was overshadowed by Ramaswamy.
Why is the Indian guy the only one calling climate change a hoax?
Donald Trump is a Debate Winner Even Without Taking the Stage
The ex-president’s lead in the Republican primary is so commanding he doesn’t have to play the same game the other candidates do.

Donald Trump—who is expected to surrender to authorities Thursday, the morning after the debate, in his fourth felony indictment—entered the race as the GOP’s clear favorite. But the former president’s grip on the party has only seemed to tighten in recent months: His legal troubles have dominated the news cycles; even most of his opponents have treated him with deference and entertained his fantasies of political persecution; and DeSantis, his closest rival, has come to seem less like Trump 2.0 than a glitchy knock-off. There has been some appetite, within the GOP, for a Trump alternative, be it an acolyte like Ramaswamy or an antagonist like Chris Christie. But no one, so far, has done much to alter the overall 2024 landscape.
It’ll be harder for them to do so if he makes clear he is not bound by the same rules as the rest of the field: He has refused to sign the loyalty pledge the Republican National Committee has mandated for its candidates to appear in debates. And he is not only skipping the debate in defiance of RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel—he is counter-programming it with a Tucker Carlson interview. McDaniel is a stickler when it comes to the rest of the field. In response to criticism from anti-Trump Republican Will Hurd and other candidates who didn’t make the debate stage, McDaniel more or less shrugged: “The rules are the rules,” she told Politico, adding that there will be “consequences” for candidates who flout the required pledge to support the eventual nominee. But that doesn’t really apply to Trump; any punishments the RNC comes up with are unlikely to have a real impact on his candidacy. He’s not subject to the dictates of the Republican Party—he is the Republican Party.
Hey.. The “Great Pumpkin”!
Oh.. 2 of them!!
Linus was right!
Once you watch the debate, it will be clear. Vavek is horrible. This was the first I saw him in action. I definitely wasn’t expecting that.
And what are the values of current Western society? Christian? Please.
Destroyed? Only if you are globalist interventionalist. Haley is a classic chicken hawk.
