Republicans what are your thoughts on Vivek Ramaswamy?

[Stoner710]

I love trump I don’t plan on voting for him in the primary for 2024 I’m a DeSantis guy, or a Vivek Ramaswamy guy. In the primaries is likely going to be DeSantis. In the General I will support the republicans candidate. And this is coming from a guy who voted for Trump technically 4× time 2 primaries and 2 generals

As of right now, Vivek is my first choice followed by Trump. Trump has a significant advantage on the foreign affairs side since he's the only one that our political rivals and "friends" respect and doesn't have to prove himself to be heard. DeSantis would be fine, but he's a bit too cozy with some of the party scum for my liking- he's getting set up to be a George W Bush 2.0 (excellent governor going into the white house with a lot of strings attached that prevent him from delivering and will certainly under-deliver). His only path to the presidency is to run to the right of Trump, which he's kinda/sorta not really doing, no doubt because his big donors have him on a leash. Burning that bridge was an asinine decision on his part.

The rest I think are pretty pathetic candidates who have all outed themselves as completely out of touch if not outright dismissive of their own voting base.

Make sense, I like DeSantis over Trump I want to support Vivak but I don’t think he’ll win. He’s running the the what I call the Andrew Yang lane (except on the republican side). And yes the rest are crap even though I like Tim Scott he might me a good VP but I don’t think he would do well as POTUS

I like what I hear and how he presents it. A+

He has no military experiences and has not served in the armed forces to my knowledge. F- ... like many others, except others have dealt with such issues.

He may be a great strategist but not so sure he can deal with foreign leaders, in this environment, effectively.

he would draw some of the middle, maybe.

To be fair we haven’t had a president who survived in the military since George H. W Bush

[lightbulb27]

desantis at least was in military, not necessarily combat. legal skills seem quite relevant as well as knowledge of military.

[Stoner710]

I actually did not know that about DeSantis I guess he was a naval lawyer. Makes me want to support him even more even though I already support Ron DeSantis. Ron DeSantis. (I also like to Vivak) trump is a meh even though I love Trump.

VR is THE man for the times.

He's the only candidate that I can see who will get all U. S. citizens headed in a better direction.

VR in '24!!!

[Avicenna]

Seems like a good candidate. It's great to have another candidate with extensive business experience.

[gorydetails]

He sounds too good to be true at this point.

I’m a Trump fan as well, but would certainly vote for Ramaswamy if he made it as the Republican nomination for President

[Stoner710]

What an about the primaries?

I love Trump I think he’s bad with independences like my parents are not planning on voting for Trump or Biden. They didn’t vote for Trump or Biden in 20/21. We’re in Washington, so it’s not like our vote matters. (Parents recently moved to Arizona.)

I am hoping he wins the primary.
