Vivek Tells The Truth About The GOP

Excerpt:
"In what some have called "the greatest opening statement ever," GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy 'unleashed hell' at the start of the 3rd primary debate tonight.

Zero shits were given and no punches were pulled as the tech mogul began his opening statement by inviting Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel to resign on stage in the aftermath of the disastrous Tuesday night election results.

"There's something deeper going on in the Republican Party here and I am upset about what happened last night," he said.

"We've become a party of losers," he continued, adding:

"...there is a cancer in the Republican establishment... Since Ronna McDaniel took over as chairwoman of the RNC in 2017 we have lost 2018, 2020, 2022, no red wave, that never came."

And then the haymaker...

"We got trounced last night in 2023 and I think that we have to have accountability in our party," he went on.

"For that matter, Ronna if you want to come up on stage tonight. You want to look the GOP voters in the eye and tell them you resign... I will turn over my time to you."


Vivek then switched focus to the fact that the debate is being moderated by NBC, saying that the GOP debates should be moderated by Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, and Elon Musk:

"We'd have 10x the viewership, asking questions that GOP primary voters actually care about!""

    The republican party and the democratic party are two cheeks on the same a$$. Both only care about power. Vote libertarian.

      I agree on D's and R's. Both are filled with treasonous looters.
      We'll never see another fair election until after a successful insurrection
      punishes the traitors and looters in D.C. and its evil spawn in statehouses.
      Voting in the US today is a perfect example of Einstein's definition of insanity.

      Voting with your feet will likely give you more satisfying results.

    As rhfinle said that is the root of it. I call the political parties the "Big Government Party", it just has 2 wings but the same mantra, Grow Government. It just about it in different ways. The left wing starts wars, the right wing ends them. The left wing installs socialistic programs, the right wing complains but keeps funding them. In politics the rule is that if you are narcistic and an egomaniac, you will advance. If you are in need of a nursing home, you may be a fit for the Senate or the Presidency. There a few good ones in politics but all in all, there are not that many even though they think they are the best and brightest. For them, if you watch, the more power they have, the better.

    I liked Vivek Ramaswamy from the first speech I heard him make. Unfortunately, I don't think he is electable at this time.

      Why don't you think he is electable?

        He's way too low in the polls, which means he's not getting good traction. If the commies manage to knock out Trump, it will be a whole new ball game and maybe he'll pick up. I will definitely vote for him if he's on the ballot because he speaks honestly and with strength on issues very Trump-like. It will be nearly impossible for the MSMM to smear him as a racist or xenophobe for his border stance or any other issue. They won't be able to accuse him of being "too Christian", either. Someone put up a link to a video of him in college where he seemed a bit left or DS connected, but I think he's grown a lot since then. Sorry, I don't recall the name of the video.

          Oh, I thought you meant "unelectable" in the sense he lacks the qualities of a good candidate. But, yeah, he is honest and not tied to the Deep State, unfortunately he is far down in the polls and the MSM will attack him if he starts to gain momentum, but like you say, the "racist" slur or the "sexually assaulted me 30 years ago" contrivance will not work.

    Here is a root cause of the problem: There are so many left-leaning, self, serving, wishy-washy people in the Republican party that, for years, I've been saying that you can't tell the Demoblicans from the Republicrats. One thing I've learned from Libertarians is to use objective reason to determine a position, then to stick to your gnus and ignore the expediency. Most Republicans don't do that. I believe that the recent up-and-coming "Radical Conservatives", Constitutionalists, Trump supporting and otherwise, are moving in the right direction, but are being castigated by not only the flaming Left, but the RINO herd in the middle of the Republican party.
    In 1861, as the Confederacy broke away from the US, they wanted to keep the Stars and Stripes, as they believed that the South represented the original Union, and that the Jacksonian Republicans who had wandered far from the original precepts, should get their own flag, If course, this wouldn't happen. Modern Constitutionalist Republicans should keep the Republican pachyderm banner, and push the centrist crowd to call themselves something else, and get a new logo (preferably something with a long horn on its nose). But, of course, that won't happen. At least there's a name for the RINO's now.

    To the extent that the GOP "got trounced," it's because of the anti-rights abortion policy of many of its candidates. Roe may have been bad law, but Dodds is worse. Regardless, Vivek had a good run, and I like some of his rhetoric, but put a fork in him.

    The GOP would rather have Chris Crispycream on the ticket. It's over. The GOP is in dire straights now. The candidate the media has chosen to represent the party 1. doesn't come to debates 2. will probably end up in shackles (which doesn't necessarily mean he's a bad guy, anymore) 3. failed to drain the swamp 4. got distracted by twitter tweeting trying to respond to the (brilliant) MSM leftists who figured out late in his term how to play him like a fiddle.

    We need somebody like Vivek. Let's get him in there and suspend elections for 20 years so he can get the time to get it done....(haha....)

      Perhaps Trump will like him enough to be a running mate.

        Yeah, I think Vivek will be on staff w Trump, should Trump make it back in. Vivek is a wrecking ball and that's exactly what we need. I used to say that Trump was "just an unexpected speedbump" for the Dem progressives and their agenda. Looks like I nailed that one as they are pulling out all the stops, laws and rights be dammed, to derail him. But, Trump isn't nearly as impactful as I'd hope to see. He needs to focus, not waste tweets, keep the Fauci's and others like him off the staff. The left is at war. The right hasn't really realized yet that there even is a war. Time to get a little dirty and a lot focused. Some of us non-leftists have, as Patton said, put our hand in some kind of goo that used to be our best friends face...but many still don't know what to do. (I always loved that line from Patton's speech...Google it for entertainment...)

    Ramaswamy is my 2nd choice behind DJT. Actually I would like to see Tom Cruise as president. We would have a leader who is already popular all over the world.

    But what in God's name is opinionated, hate-mongering NBC doing "moderating" the debate?

    That's like going to a war and supplying the enemy with weapons.

    Republican lose all credibility when they allow and legitimize NBC or any of the legacy media to manage their debates. You don't put your declared and pernicious enemy, who is trying to destroy you, on a pedestal and thereby granting him undeserved respect.

    For good or bad Americans love a fighter, stand up and speak up, no surrender to fake charges for the sake of a quiet run.

    On top of that, the points Vivek raised were good and correct.

    The UniParty desperately wants us to vote “correctly” so they don’t have to steal another one.

    I used to think in warfare that when one side didn’t immediately go after the capital of the other side it was out of some kind of professional courtesy. Now I believe it’s another reason entirely. The WORST thing an enemy of the United States could do is take out the current regime. Which can be bought. Oh heck no with these clowns in charge America’s enemies sleep safe at night. Say in the event of a nuclear exchange. Half the population is vaporized in the cities. Pretty much the DNC base. The mass of armed angry hornets that remained would be terrifying. If Xi moved on the west coast he would probably be welcomed as a liberator. If he Nuked the west coast the rest of us would never stop fighting him

    these so called 'debates' are really just a way for the RNC to decide which candidate to put up there to go against the democratic one. It a pre=popularity contest. Worthless to watch really.
