    DIdn't watch, as I said, but its kind of fun to watch flash-in-the-pan Vivek.

    Smart guy - arrogant AF, immature AF, obnoxious AF. I can see why he did well in business. That's the reason Donald Trump got elected he'll never make it in politics.

    My God, imagine working for him. It would be horrendous.

        He'd clearly prepared that comment, which makes you wonder what caliber of advisors he has.

          He's a fighter and probably has some sadism lurking underneath, which he thinks he can get away with as long as "the other person started it".

            I'd be willing to bet he has a high IQ too 🙂

            EQ, not so much. He's socially incompetent.

              So he didn't mean to call Zelensky a Nazi, he was just 'talking quickly and oscillated his words'. Riiiiiight. How exactly does one oscillate their words?

                To be honest, what with BoJo, Trump, Biden etc. I think I've had enough of people who can't string coherent sentences together being in charge of countries.

                  There is plenty to be said about Ukraine not being an idyllic liberal democracy, but nobody is saying it. In the transparent battle for the hearts and minds of western voters, messaging is carefully sculpted.

                    It does seem an unfortunate lack of ability for that particular position. every word out of your mouth is parsed to the nth degree.

                      There's plenty of corruption, I'm sure, as there is in most of the countries in that region. It's still a shit-ton better than the barbaric criminal dictatorship in charge of Russia.

                      Calling him a Nazi is echoing Russian propaganda. What an amazing coincidence. Oh sorry, total accident, Freudian slip. I meant that guy in Canada.

                        There is a choice.

                        The West can either support a thoroughly corrupt authoritarian regime - a mafia state- that extorts and makes war with its neighbours and sows political mischief internationally.

                        Or

                        The West can give its support to a chronically corrupted democracy that has been trying to deal with its past, establish a rule of law and defend its right to exist as a sovereign nation.

                        I know which one of the two I will support.

                          Nonsense. Corruption in Ukraine has been openly discussed and addressed since the 90’s. It has prevented Ukraine from becoming a member not only of the EU but a number of other international organisations.

                          No it’s not an idyllic liberal democracy by any means. But it is not moving towards becoming a totalitarian mafia state like its hegemonic neighbour.

                            Ramaswamy’s team didn’t include the Haley jabs in their best of compilation. Pretty good compilation.

                              I am sure it’s a hotly discussed topic in your circles. The subject doesn’t come up in the messaging that trickles its way to me, except from those who don’t mind being labeled pro Russia agents.

                                        You’re safe now in Texas. You can vote Republican without the least fear of shaming, shunning or Black Panthers blocking your polling station.

                                        If I were an American I would have absolutely no qualms about marking my X next to Nikki Hayley’s name on the ballot either.
