I think Pence and Vivek also did very well. I would like to see those 4 alone in future debates along with Trump if he would like to show up
DeSantis was laser focused in the debate last night, very good performance. Pence has experience, as Trump VP, and played that but has zero chance. Christie and Haley did well, performance wise. Same with Burgum at times. Vivek self-destructed by being a jerk throughout the entire evening. Scott was nice guy, but clearly out of his element. Hutchison was there, why?
Pence went from being a stiff vice-principle type to now being a cranky sounding get-off-my-lawn dweeboid.
Christy came off like some ballooned east-coast restaurant manager with a wiseguy attitude who likes to poke his finger in people’s moobs and spittle on them.
Ramaswamy needs to link up with Harold because he has a better chance of finding white castle than the white house.
Can’t remember who the suit guy was. I think he might have been from Arkansas. He is definitely a different breed than the guy from Arkansas who actually did get into the White House once, but he wont. He’s a boring suit guy.
DeSantis tried to hard to over people and over the crowd, and he couldn’t. PEEP PEEP
I don’t want to say Haley won, but she won by default. She didn’t lose
Whoever else I missed, they were even more boring than the suit guy.
I keep seeing that, and I disagree a little.
I thought Vivek came across like every VC person I’ve ever seen. He is aggressive and believes he is the smartest guy in the room. He probably is, most of the time. But the problem comes when you think you are...but you aren’t. Knowing the difference is critical when you are making important decisions.
Pence came across as steady, but I thought he was targeting the deep religious right side of the party. Thats OK in a primary, but it’s not going to fly very far in the general. Also, he came across as “older” and I don’t think that is going to play deep into the process as well.
I thought DeSantis was fine. Christine sang one song. Tim Scott was present. Nikki sounded OK. Asa should go home and give Burgam (sp?) a ride.
We need to clear the deck, and fast. These guys who don’t catch fire pretty soon, need to move out, and move on. The “fight” for the nomination should be down to two people by the end of February.
