re: For those of you that say Vivek is obnoxious

I really think the anti-Vivek crowd are RINOs or nwo communists. To attack the ONLY candidate saying what needs to be said with such weak and flimsy crap has to have some ulterior motive.

What does this mean?
What do you suppose is his real agenda?
Vivek has very, very little record that is relevant and even with that little record there are inconsistencies. Many things about his stances and life story don't add up or run counter to what he has done. That's why he needs to run for Senate or Governor or serve in government in some other capacity before anyone thinks about giving him the keys to the car.
I don't think he is a complete fraud but I do think he is fundamentally a guy that made his money because he convinced people to give him money to invest with. He's a tremendous salesman and that's a great asset. Unfortunately that's only one very small part of being President. When his company went public for instance he only had a handful of employees, most of which were family members. It's ok not to have been in government before but even Trump got his arse handed to him by the Swamp and he had 1000x the experience in the private sector and had been dealing with government in a variety of ways for decades.
I think the biggest issues with Vivek is his hubris. He acts as though he is the only one to think of many of the ideas he has and simply because he read a book and is smart that he can just magically make things happen. The problem is DC is filled with some very smart people who read the same books and then some and have decades of experience destroying guys like him. You have to run a super tight ship with a real plan and lots of allies to have a chance in DC and Vivek simply doesn't have those assets. DeSantis is the only one who does.

Is that a bad thing?
What will Trump supporters say when he's part of Trump's administration?

Agree with all that.

I don't know but I know what these "experienced" politicians have done. But I guess I'm just criticizing their record because I don't have one.

I don't remember that, but I'm sure it was a wide spread sentiment and easily demonstrable.

It’s easy to criticize when you have no foundation to stand on.
This may not apply to you Roger, but the irony of anyone who voted for Trump saying this is off the charts. I see people that I know voted for Trump say some variation of this over and over, on TD and in the real world.
I think it’s obvious that most Republicans are desperately searching for candidates that have experience outside of politics. It seems that most of the insiders with experience hold views more aligned with warmongering Nimrata than Thomas Massey.

There’s a blueprint out there that gets followed every election.
A successful businessman/woman declares their candidacy for some Republican position.
Voters say “Whoa. He was successful at business. And if you can run a business, you’re going to be good at government. We should elect him/her.”

My position on Trump the first time was that if he was going to wreck the GOP, that deserved four years. Anything else was gravy. He got his four years. He did what I wanted done. I don't have to support a second term to validate my choice.

This.
Was he speaking "truth" 18 months ago when he was taking the opposite positions? Or is he "speaking truth" now?
What about when he switches back as it becomes convenient? Will that be "truth?"
I think he's good to have around as an attack dog against liberals (right now, anyway, as long as he hasn't flip flopped his stances), but anybody who thinks he POTUS material has been sniffing too much Scotch guard.

Did he? They've dug in and are fighting even harder. Just curious. Who do you support this go round?

My son asked that I thought of this person. I had no favorable reason to like him.

Did you expect them to lay down and die? Get up and vote. The House and Senate are both within reach for the next president.
I support Desantis. I know he's a longshot, but anything can happen. He's the candidate conservatives have said they wanted since Reagan.
