Sorry for the headline. I don’t know why they don’t just say it’s Vivek Ramaswamy.

To that end, I will accept Russian control of the occupied territories and pledge to block Ukraine’s candidacy for NATO in exchange for Russia exiting its military alliance with China. I will end sanctions and bring Russia back into the world market. In this way, I will elevate Russia as a strategic check on China’s designs in East Asia.

    Neither, I think his job is to absorb the negative attention so T looks less unhinged or maybe separate off the crazier magas.

        Would you put someone “just nuts” in front of a tv camera? But really, I’ve never known the gop to just roll with whomever, their messaging is tightly controlled. If he is up there it’s for a reason.

          Have you seen today’s GOP? Trump, Marj Green, Lauren Boebert, Jim Jordan… the crazy is a feature, not a bug, In Republican politics.

          I’ve never known the gop to just roll with whomever, their messaging is tightly controlled.

          All the tightly message-controlled Republican candidates in 2016 got thumped by Trump. The Republican party doesn’t even have a platform. They’re literally just rolling with some guy right now.

          If he is up there it’s for a reason.

          Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity… or craziness.

            Yeah, occam’s says it’s a political ploy. We are literally discussing candidates and how they present themselves. To legitimately bring in mental health seems a stretch.

          That’s generally what happens because it draws in ratings.

          We’ve put Trump, and previously 2nd term Reagan in front. So…yes?
