Vivek Ramaswamy won the left-leaning Drudge Report straw poll after the first Republican presidential debate in Milwaukee on Wednesday night … going away. Haley was second with DeSantis and Christie tied for third. The rest were low also-rans.
So, why did Vivek do so well? My guess is that he was there and Trump was not. I believe that he has become Trump-lite …. willing to take on controversial positions and to speak his mind … but without the off-putting personality of The Donald.
Which obviously begs the question - why is he not ahead of Trump? Well, Pilgrim, because Trump has been made into a martyr by the dumb Democrats … and Americans also know how he will govern. They are not so certain about Ramaswamy.
Which brings us to the election itself. I have long thought that 2024 will be a contest between the establishment … now represented by open borders, wokeness, pro-criminal, soft on China, endless Ukraine war, sluggish economy, inflation, etc. … against the non-establishment. The INs against the OUTs if you will.

And I strongly believe that, no matter who the INs nominate (even Michelle or Oprah), he/she will lose in a landslide … despite indictments, convictions or a repeat of massive election fraud.
When I’m right, I think I start charging big bucks for my political consulting.
Afterward: Here is the actual debate for us old farts who couldn’t stay up that latte — Common Cents post
STAND UP FOR THE OUTS!
