I can see why #Ramaswamy has gotten some traction in the #GOP. He's a toxic narcissist, a bigot of color and a lover of disinformation.

I suspect he went a bit too hard against his white elders for the GOP base last night but he's still learning.

@JoshuaHolland The man can spin a yarn without being handheld by PR goons. What he says is mostly alarming junk for the Maga base. But he does say a lot. Compare him to Pence, and its Mouth Constipation versus Word Diarrhoea.

@JoshuaHolland I think that all these contenders are trying to figure out what to imitate about Trump so as to inherit his support, whenever he exits the scene.

Ramaswamy seems to me to be betting on the casual disregard for facts from sources, as a way to outrage educated America. And it may turn out that that is the "correct" answer. In my mind, the thread that holds MAGA together is a sense that the educated establishment has conspired to crush them.

@JoshuaHolland Pretty sure white nationalist MAGA racists aren’t going to support him.

Even if he is the current flavor of the month for Silicon Valley tech bros
