From The Swamy, Quote Of The Week...

 

By EDUARDO PAZ-MARTINEZ

McALLEN, Texas | It wasn't more than a few weeks ago that he was a nobody in national politics. This week, a poll had him neck-and-neck with spastic Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in the 2024 race for The White House.

Smoothie Vivek Ramaswamy, shown in photo above, has now even qualified for the first Republican Party candidate's debate. Who woulda thunk it?

Heh heh.

And the guy is one glib, wealthy Indian-American! Watch out GOP.

This from thehill.com: [ Ramaswamy on Friday took a swipe at the current GOP frontrunner for the party’s nomination, Donald Trump - a tactic he has largely avoided. The candidate claimed Trump may be too polarizing to advance the party’s agenda while at a steakhouse town hall in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, according to NBC News.

"Here’s a reality about my friend, Donald Trump," Ramaswamy said. "I respect what he did, but it’s just a fact, it’s not even his fault - 30 percent of this country becomes psychiatrically ill when he’s in the White House." ]

Ouch.

The Swamy is no Ted Cruz out to lick Mar-a-Lago ass. Trump would be wise not to call Ramaswamy's wife "ugly," as he did with the stunningly unfazed Cruz.

All this in a week when DeSantis lost ground in pretty much every national poll. Stories have labeled his campaign as "struggling" and "misguided" and "doomed". Wowzee. Yeah. It may just be that Ramaswamy, who comports himself in a distinctly-Obama manner (well-dressed, well-spoken, quick on the political dig), has grabbed himself some lightning.

I dunno, I dunno.

But I do love that quote about Trump making people ill...
