Ramaswamy’s super weird. He’s a superficial corporate candidate that came out of nowhere. Most of what he does is say he agrees with trump. He also wants to raise the voting age to hold off zoomers from voting for a couple years.

lol maybe he's angling for a veep position under trump

[-] Azarova@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

I feel like they're all doing that or campaigning for cabinet positions. I would be surprised if any of them were actually deluded enough to think they could beat Trump. That, or they're holding out hope that his legal troubles stop him from being the candidate.

he's, by far, the least bad one lol. I wouldnt be surprised he came out on top, although he may be too soft on china/rusia. The other ones are complete ghouls screaming who is more warmonger than the other.

[-] QueerCommie@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 1 year ago

A low bar. He’s still terrible.

[-] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

"Let's stop trading with China" only sounds reasonable because all the other candidates are just chanting "BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD!"

I forget where I read this, but he is a defender of the caste system.

I wouldn’t be surprised. I heard the Modi regime is trying to become the next Zionist lobby. They want to make “Indian” synonymous with Hindu and increase Islamophobia. He’s probably funded by them as an Indian far-right politician. I know Tulsi Gabbard is. (I think both are posturing “anti-war” [anti-ukraine], but hawkish on China and “Israel.”)

The Republicans trot out one of these types every election -- somebody who by any real metric is just another Bush Era Conservative, but who also mouths whatever dumb kind of pseudo-populism happens to be in vogue on the fringes of the party. They're almost always women or minorities: Sarah Palin was one of the first, then we got Michelle Bachmann, Ben Carson, etc. And for about a month suburban wine moms and soccer dads go into ecstasies on social media about how "this is true political INNOVATION, we Republicans are the ones with REAL diversity" and many other such inanities, only to fall in at last behind whatever bland mainstream candidate the party leadership has been grooming all along.

Yeah, “I’m young and different, but also want to keep all the young and different people out of the country and out of politics.”

[-] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

They just really don't want anyone escaping the country when they hit the blatant fascism button huh?

[-] 201dberg@lemmygrad.ml 27 points 1 year ago

Well tbf they are pretty much doing the blatant fascism with Palestine. It's just that people don't care until it gets pointed at them.

Republicans and walls are an iconic duo in more ways than one

[-] Buchenstr@lemmygrad.ml 24 points 1 year ago

This is literally a south park gag, wtf are they doing?

After building a wall around the US: fill it with water.

do we get to build another US on top like the Land of Wano because i am SO down.

[-] romaselli@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Close down all international airports and cut them off from the global internet as well.

[-] Shinhoshi@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 year ago

Can we at least keep the radicalization pipeline open?

[-] juchebot88@lemmygrad.ml 4 points 1 year ago

A plan with pros and cons.

Pro: it will keep the burger eaters from destabilizing and destroying the entire world.

Con: all that American-ness concentrated in one place might produce a cursed nexus which, by warping the fabric of space and time, might end up destroying the world anyway.

[-] asg101@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

That's a gofundme I would contribute to.

[-] TheLastHero@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

We need to shut the US down until we can figure out what the hell is going on

[-] M68040@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

We have to stop, uh, Jean Jaques Renault

[-] GaryLeChat@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 1 year ago

Seems pretty neat to me, so long as it's to keep the Americans in lol

[-] anicius@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The ensuing cage match might top the 1998 Hell in a Cell match between Mankind and The Undertaker.

i wonder what that guy's up to these days? What a storyteller. i loved his bit.

[-] juchebot88@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 year ago

This guy is just another one of those clowns who tries to ape Trump without having an ounce of Trump's peculiar.... shall we say "panache."

[-] bigboopballs@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

great, please keep the yanks inside their containment dome.

So we've got to just skate to where the puck is going — not just where the puck is

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Republican lawmakers have been complaining more frequently about the northern border in the context of unauthorized migration, but the numbers remain a tiny portion of the U.S. total.

For simply musing idly about the possibility of a Canada wall, Scott Walker drew merciless ridicule in the 2016 campaign.

Gary Doer wondered how Walker, the governor of a Great Lakes state, Wisconsin, no doubt aware of that body of water, intended to build a wall across the monumental natural boundary.

The New York Times obituary for his failed campaign said his string of gaffes had unnerved supporters, and it specifically cited the Canadian wall comment.

With just a year to the election, Ramaswamy's campaign has already lasted longer than Walker's and is in fourth place in hypothetical national primary polls.

He remains a distant longshot, however, languishing approximately 54 percentage points behind Donald Trump, the Republican frontrunner, who skipped Wednesday's debate.


The original article contains 495 words, the summary contains 143 words. Saved 71%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
