He was rapping not a year ago at an event (and it was terrible). He talks a big game but not 5 years ago was a pharma dweeb. He was hand picked decades ago to ask a question at a town hall event. He’s not to be trusted. He has some baggage if you perform a tertiary research.

This dude thinks there’s only 2 genders, and says kids wanting to cut their anatomy off is a mental illness…. How dare him.

First of all, Merry Christmas. Like your post and appreciate the satire. I see folks trashing Vivek often and don't understand what he's doing wrong. Lol
I understand he has no experience or track record, but he talks more about the Constitution than any of the others, including Trump.

Merry Christmas to you. I really don't get the hatred either.
People try to imply he is a plant, but with no real evidence.
I think people don't like him personally because he does sort of come across as a know it all. And he is. He is probably a little overconfident.
Part of it is that he is Hindu. He says he has people, especially older people, tell him they really like him but will not vote for a Hindu.
I've read his books and I think he is genuine. I see no evidence he is a plant. His political experience is limited, but he did amass a billion dollars in wealth at an early age.
I think he would probably be more effective than Trump is in that he would be less easily manipulated
and more consistent. I think he would immediately pick up on deep state tactics and aggressivel counter them.
As he is an ideologue as much as a pragmatist, he is more likely to remain true.

Yes. But if there's one thing Republicans and Conservatives love, it's being lied to. They're addicted to the grift.

The funny part is that most of your thumbs down are because some people don’t understand or appreciate sarcasm. Good post.

What people completely fail to comprehend is if something would happen to Trump before the primaries and he would have to removed from primary ballots, Ron, Nikki, and Christie would not see more than a 2-3% bump while Vivek would be leading the polls. His numbers are only low because of Trump.

True. David Horowitz was a communist. His parents raised him communist. Douglas Murray also had communist parents.

Skepticism is not the same thing as hate. Nobody (or very few) hates Vivek. Nearly everybody on the Right gives him credit for his rhetoric - he's spot on, aggressive and persuasive in ways nobody else on the Right is. But the fact is he's new to "conservatism" and can come across like an opportunist. I'm a fan and hope he proves to be genuine, but at this moment distrust/skepticism isn't unhealthy where Vivek is concerned.

And who are you not skeptical of? Tell me, and let's determine whether or not you should be?

I'm skeptical of everyone. There isn't a perfect candidate.
DeSantis has "presided" the best but has been a shitty candidate.
Trump is more compelling but sucked balls in 2020.
Vivek sounds great but hasn't done frick all as a conservative.

When folks see the error of their ways, it is a quick awakening! I don’t fault his past as long as he sees the future clearly!

I'm voting for Trump. I like Vivek, so everyone can go frick themselves. Especially liberals.
Posted on 12/25/23 at 7:05 pm to RiverCityTider
He’s deep state scum. He’s Barack jr. I hope you understand this.

Most of life isn’t complicated. It is pretty simple to do the right things or do what we are supposed to. Simple, but for humans it’s not easy. We are our own worst enemy.

Suuure. Look at our wonderful Louisiana republican leadership. Both chambers of the Congress and majorities in both chambers. We are chock full of these converts. It gets them where they need to be but doesn't do much for the ones they sucker into voting them in. They don't vote the way you'd expect.or maybe they do depending on how progressive you consider yourself. Bottom line, they can't win the left, so they fake a right.

This is where I'm at. 2024 isn't Vivek's year but he's on the map now. Anyone willing to run interference and wreck liberals the way Vivek is currently is good in my book.

Vivek and Pete Booty Juice were at the same event by MSNBC, for the 2004 presidential race, highlighting at least one Dem. These people are always selected ahead of time. It's a little weird.
And bush and Obama are all buddies now. And Liz Cheney is a best selling liberal author.
