Essentially a democrap running as a rhino? Hard pass on Vivek. He's wasting his time.

This guy is perfect but Republicans will never place him as their nominee.

There is just something about him they just don't like.....

Why do you Democrats reduce everything down to race?

And yes, hopefully Republicans will never place him as a nominee for any office because of one big reason.....he's not a real Republican. He's an Opportunist. Mark it down. If he doesn't succeed as a Republican he'll switch parties one day.

You can see the occupation of the donor when you click on each donation. The donations to the DNC and ActBlue are from a school psychologist with the same name.

Vivek has pushed back hard on the insanity of ESG. He also understands the modern business world and how technology is rapidly changing life and jobs.

Unfortunately republicans don't care about economic issues anymore.

I'm glad to see Vivek respond directly to the attacks against him first coming from maga Twitter and more recently from DeSantis people. They'll keep finding something he said or something one of his companies did and attack with headlines in 280 characters. I've seen him respond directly to a covid mask comment, an alleged Soros link, the WEF link, etc., but it's starting to become too much to explain. Now he has to explain all the past Dem donations. A guy who wised up and flipped from young liberal to ultra-MAGA or a disingenuous grifter attempting to seize an opportunity? Maybe both. An R candidate is going to need the maga base to have a remote chance in the general and they're very much against Ron still, which is concerning.

Agree with you that he needs a lot to prove to the MAGA base. However, as I mentioned above, the DNC donations are from another guy with the same name. It's not an uncommon Indian name. The FEC website linked above shows the occupation and employer of all donors (on mobile, click the play button). Look for the contributions made by the Vivek R. with employer "Roivant Sciences" which is the biotech company he founded.

I'll put all of his contributions here:

* FRIENDS OF DENA (2016) - $2700
* COTTON VICTORY (2017) - $5400
* COTTON FOR SENATE (2017) - $2700
* COTTON FOR SENATE (2017) - $2700
* CONNECTICUT REPUBLICAN PARTY (2019) - $250
* MARY FAY 4 CONGRESS (2020) - $1000
* THOMAS GILMER FOR CONGRESS (2020) - $2800
* STREICKER FOR CONGRESS, INC. (2020) - $1000
* OHIO REPUBLICAN PARTY STATE CENTRAL & EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE (2020) - $10000
* NRSC (2020) - $9400
* FRIENDS OF STEVE NEGRON (2020) - $2800
* SENATE GEORGIA BATTLEGROUND FUND (2020) - $15000
* MOWERS FOR CONGRESS (2020) - $2800
* WINRED (2020) - $1000
* WINRED (2020) - $2800
* WINRED (2020) - $15000
* WINRED (2020) - $10000
* GEORGIANS FOR KELLY LOEFFLER (2020) - $2800
* PERDUE FOR SENATE (2020) - $2800
* OHIO REPUBLICAN PARTY STATE CENTRAL & EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE (2021) - $10000

The only Dem appears to be the first one - to Dena Grayson who ran for a House seat in Florida. I'd like him to explain that contribution.

By the way, Trump donated to Biden's Senate campaign in 2001, Kamala's attorney general campaign in 2011 and 2013, Kristen Gillibrand's 2007 and 2010 campaigns. Ivanka also donated to Cory Booker's campaign in 2013 and 2014. Look it up.

Regardless, I share the sentiment here that Vivek is an unproven candidate; perhaps he would make a good cabinet member.

.@Mike_Pence says today he was "deeply offended" that I don't trust that the government told us the full truth in the 9/11 Commission Report. Well, I find it offensive that our government repeatedly lies to us. Here's the TRUTH: the FBI quietly declassified documents in 2021 that definitively reveal the government lied to the public about basic facts of Saudi Arabia's involvement in 9/11, until documents were declassified and they changed their story 20 years later.

Omar al-Bayoumi, a 42-year-old graduate student, welcomed, housed, set up bank accounts, and gave rent money to the first two Qaida hijackers after they landed in Los Angeles in January 2000. Al-Bayoumi claimed to have met the two terrorists entirely by chance: The 9/11 Commission report verified that Bayoumi's altruism was in the name of hospitality, as he claimed.

The FBI, 20 years later, changed its story. In documents declassified last year, the Bureau affirmed that Bayoumi was in fact an agent of the Saudi intelligence service who worked with Saudi religious officials and reported to the kingdom's powerful ambassador in Washington.

U.S. government officials continue to lie about other matters of public importance the origin of Covid-19, knowledge about UAPs, Hunter Biden's laptop, how our money is actually being spent in Ukraine, the Nashville trans shooter manifesto with a complicit media that just accepts the prevailing narrative without question. This fuels rampant public distrust. There is no credible evidence that 9/11 was an "inside job," but ironically, when the government systematically lies about Saudi involvement and the media runs interference, that lends plausibility to an otherwise unlikely claim.

There's no such thing as a noble lie. With all due respect to the former VP, the reason the people don't trust the government is because the government doesn't trust the people.

He is another one that they are trying to prop up as a conservative with what he is saying on a campaign trail, but reality (just like RFK and many others,) he is a leftists.

They are doing everything they can in all directions to prevent a Republican of any kind. They fear Trump and DeSantis.

Honestly, if Trump and DeSantis teamed up....

Yep, he does have an excellent point that was already made by Desantis weeks (months?) ago. But this is typical Ramascammy - listen to what Desantis says, wait to see if the feedback is positive or negative, and if its positive then go out and repeat it like its your own original thought.

The fact that we're sending hundreds of billions to Ukraine without Biden even once articulating why it advances U.S. national interests reeks of corruption. It's now fair game to ask whether the geopolitical disaster known as Hunter Biden has something to do with it. The bipartisan establishment, from @GovChristie to @NRO to @MSNBC, is attacking me for even asking the question. But just think independently for a moment.

We've already fulfilled our obligations to Ukraine pursuant to the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, yet we flagrantly violate James Baker's 1990 "not one inch" commitment to Gorbachev. We're depleting U.S. military resources to dangerously low levels that we need in other conflict situations. We're going out of our way to use U.S. military resources to defend an invasion of someone else's border when we're doing absolutely nothing to stop the cartel-aided invasion across our own southern border right here at home. This makes absolutely no sense until you recognize that the very nation receiving those hundreds of billions of taxpayer resources is one of the most corrupt nations on planet Earth who also paid millions to Hunter Biden.

The compliant media say the $5 million bribe still hasn't been definitively proven, but it's undisputed that Hunter received millions for sitting on the board of Burisma when he has zero expertise & that he involved his father in conversations with board members of a company whose owner was tied to Ukraine's national security apparatus. It's shameful that even most Republicans behave like puppets hiding from these facts, but I will NOT comply.
