    Ramaswamy’s probably the one to keep an eye out for, DeSantis might represent white rebellion against “wokeness” but Vivek’s imported grievance culture with caste equity policy is a dangerous thing to just shrug off when folks of his caste heritage are more common than not among who’s allowed in via our current immigration system.

      I keep wondering if Vivek gets the win (unlikely because trump) would the super racists in the tiniest of towns even vote for him? Probably, because Dems bad, but i can also imagine them just not voting

        It’ll certainly be a funny predicament to behold

        "OH NO! THE WOKES HAVE INFILTRATED THE PARTY AND MADE ME VOTE FOR ONE OF THEM!"

        I was realizing last night that I wished Yang had Ramaswamy’s energy. Well, maybe not so manic, but Yang got nowhere in the polls because he was just way too quiet during the debates. He needed to speak up more and call others out like Ramaswamy does.

        But I absolutely hate Ramaswamy and think he’d be really dangerous as President.

        Well it was obvious that trump is a complete shitstain and will do nothing but damage the country and yet people still voted for him. If the concept of evil itself ran as republican, they’d vote for it.
