Ramaswamy’s probably the one to keep an eye out for, DeSantis might represent white rebellion against “wokeness” but Vivek’s imported grievance culture with caste equity policy is a dangerous thing to just shrug off when folks of his heritage are more common than not among who’s allowed in via our current immigration system.

He’s basically bizarro Andrew Yang.

So Andrew Yin?

I was realizing last night that I wished Yang had Ramaswamy’s energy. Well, maybe not so manic, but Yang got nowhere in the polls because he was just way too quiet during the debates. He needed to speak up more and call others out like Ramaswamy does.

But I absolutely hate Ramaswamy and think he’d be really dangerous as President.
