    That would be a nice ticket. Nikki was impressive from what I saw. And, call me sexist (or not), but her voice isn't annoying the way Hillary and Kamala are.

        Be afraid.

        Be very afraid!

        “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

        Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

            It's interesting how politics makes people proudly admit to failures they would otherwise be ashamed of. Your typical tribalist lefty will proudly claim to not understand how anybody could possibly be in the other tribe, and they'll also proudly claim to be utterly terrified of what will happen if that other tribe wins an election. Most adults don't go around crowing about how dumb and cowardly they are, but enter politics, and all of a sudden an inability to understand other human beings, along with a fear response that causes you to panic, are badges of honor.

              Typical republican projection at its finest. Don’t you feel ashamed?

              Your brainwashing began with Limbaugh and continues full force with Fox and company. What’s it really like to be a member of a cult? Is there self awareness?

                I did not watch it and have only heard parts of the debate. But I agree 100%.

                They should not have an audience for future debates. They only "minus" from the debate and add no "plusses"

                  Is a very popular word now.

                  You can really make yourself look clever by claiming someone lacks self-awareness.

                    If Ramaswamy was the biggest loser of the night, Haley was the biggest winner.

                    According to fox

                    https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/first-republican-debate-biggest-loser-biggest-winner

                    I wish they would tell us who had the best self-awareness.

                        Vivek's answer to that is that 30% of the US population gets psychologically ill when Trump is in office, but he, Vivek, doesn't have that effect. I don't think he helped his cause last night, if he's looking to keep people from going nuts at the prospect of President Ramaswamy.

                            glad to remove the veil covering your eyes.

                            Now that you can see, it's time to truly be a patriot like me, instead of a whining right wing rube who actually hates America. Projection will only go so far.

                                Sure that is some brilliant video

                                But the phrase "racist dog-whistle" is actually a racist dog-whistle.

                                This man must be cancelled.

                                        GOv Christie agrees.

                                        “If Vivek thinks that Donald Trump is the greatest president of the 21st century, what the hell is he doing running?” Christie said. “He should drop out tomorrow.”

                                          One opinion on the current state of the "GOP" candidates.

                                          QUOTE
                                          The first Republican presidential debate on Aug. 23 revealed three categories of candidates: a couple who might be sensible pragmatists, a couple others who might be sensible if they weren’t trying to contort themselves into ruthless conservatives, and a third group in hot pursuit of the fringiest elements of the GOP.

                                          The most sensible candidates don’t always win national elections.

                                          Many voters value performance over substance or want somebody who makes them feel good rather than promising responsible governance. ....... it’s likely the GOP nominee will be a bomb-thrower rather than a Reaganite establishmentarian.

                                          Normal:
                                          Nikki Haley
                                          Asa Hutchinson

                                          Semi Normal:
                                          Chris Christie
                                          Doug Burgum

                                          Abnormal:
                                          Mike Pence
                                          Ron DeSantis
                                          Tim Scott
                                          Vivek Ramaswamy
