Ever since the Democrats stole 2020 it was always going to be this way. Everyone pretending otherwise is deluding themselves.

It is either fight the corruption or pretend it is not there and surrender to it. Trump is the only one willing to fight it head on.

Vavek is horrible. This was the first I saw him in action. I definitely wasn’t expecting that.

Yep, that is a good way of putting it. This debate is my first introduction to Vivek as well and I'm not impressed.

How are Twitter video views counted?

What metric is used for the View count? The main Twitter video view metric is triggered when a user watches a video for at least 2 seconds and sees at least 50% of the video player in-view. This applies to View metrics for both uploaded videos and live broadcasts.

It seems the largest audience for this farce tonight was FR’s resident Neo-Cons. All that love for Haley, Christie, and Pence here.

DeSantis and Vivek won with Scott third. The rest need to go away.

Not sure what you were watching, but he looked like the fast talking fraud he is to me.

I think that Ramaswamy has thrown a great big wrench into the rino-republican primary. He is hogging up the votes they need to even attempt to take on Trump in the primaries.

Because he’s a fraud, top to bottom, pure and simple.

Says what folks want to hear, but his actions don’t remotely back up the rhetoric.

He’s a less talented Slick Willie with more melanin.

Is your opinion based on his interaction with the other debaters, delivery, substance etc.? What was horrible? I thought his adrenaline was his biggest enemy, but I found no glaring fault with his positions and stances. I thought his closing statement was on point and will positively affect his polling. We’ll see...

Hahaha...

This entire crowd combined won’t managed more than 30-35% of the primary vote when its all said and done.

This is all theater folks... and bad theater at that.

“Ramaswamy…got beaten up.”

Yes, they did pile on him. Pretty much the whole group was focused on taking him out. Too smart for his own britches.

He’s been through this before. Brown kid in majority black public schools. Then in Junior High got beaten up bad enough to require surgery. His parents were professionals but not rich by any means, but they pulled him out of public school and put him in the local Jesuit run St. Xavier High School. He had been bullied but was not beaten. He excelled in high school, was a nationally ranked tennis player for his age group. Class Valedictorian. In 2007 I believe it was, William (Bill) Lee, a leading patent litigator and on the board of Harvard Corporation, was talking with a few of us patent attorneys and spoke highly of Vivek after meeting him at his graduation from Harvard, how impressed he was and how he knew Vivek was going to go far. While he is coming from nowhere for a lot of people, he will keep going and he is a force for good.

I personally don’t support Ramaswamy and yes his presentation was a little hurried at times maybe. But I think he is seen as a guy who is speaking truth to power and who wants to take on the system. That will get him more support and he acquitted himself well enough in the process. We’ll see but I think that his poll numbers will be going up.

I thought RDS sounded programmed. His adviser suck. As a supporter, I gave him a 7 of 10. I think that they all lost, in a sense. GOP voters are furious with the Nazi prosecutorial tactics used against Trump and his allies. Any candidate who declared that ALL charges against Trump are totally bogus, and election interference and fraud would have skyrocketed in the polls. None did.

He doesn’t speak truth to power, he says what he thinks the audience wants to hear... like all con men.

Don’t have to dig deep to find out this guy isn’t what he claims, not even close.

I don't think that necessarily translates to being POTUS which is what the whole deal was about tonight. We already have Trump as the unruly candidate, we don't need a second choice. lol
