Becky, as also an Ohioan also (Cincinnati) I’m not so sure he wouldn’t win. Remember that these are the same voters who passed on someone (Sherrod Brown) who actually worked to help them and instead went with someone (Bernie Moreno) who stole from them.😞
There is no reason to believe his admin won't have the same turnover issues as last time. They may be aligned in some policies but they are all grifters, narcissists and sociopaths. Those aren't people known for teamwork and collaboration.
FAFO. Political career over. He fell into the trap of thinking he was “part of the club” and could insult white Americans with his comments. Found out he was just a useful tool and no matter how much money he has, not a part of the club and his opponent in Ohio will just use his comments against him
Ramaswamy seeks power for its own sake, with no commitment to helping people or fulfilling civic duties. Any standard of conduct you expect him to follow is, at this point, unrealistic.
Pretty bold. I think Ohio is pretty racist and he is going to have his ass handed to him. Remember Coulter saying she would never vote for an Indian-American. Plus they are a state destroyed by globalization - so Vivek saying white men aren't smart enough for jobs will play over and over again.
Boy, that makes an old Buckeye like me so thrilled, I might have to excuse myself to go vomit.🤢 We keep trying to "fix" the gerrymandering, but keep getting shot down. 🤬
DOGE is just a made up concept in the same vein as any Trump plan. Why is the media reporting on it like it is a legitimate US function? America, you are being played like a fiddle.
Elon already admitted he couldn’t cut all the money Trump promised. It was all for show to get elected, just like bringing down the cost of groceries, etc.
All delusional boot lickers are finding out that white supremacist GOP would never put a non white person in any position of power, no matter how much they campaigned for their citrus grand wizard.
They are all such pompous asses...seriously! I actually hope he wins - they deserve him as they elected JD Vance for one of the Senators! We have a pitiful Governor in FL... along with both our Senators too... Good luck Ohio..be careful what you wish for!
If Vivek Ramaswamy doesn’t have success in this election and gets shut out of the Republican party leadership, how long before we can expect him to rebrand himself as a “Centrist Democrat?”
Funny how all these republicans want to run for offices in other states they do not live in. Almost like they think they can buy their way in..Oh wait....
Does Vivek Ramaswamy think the people of Ohio will vote for a billionaire businessman? They did vote for Donnie, didn’t they? Oh wait, with Donnie, they voted for a WHITE failed businessman/fake reality TV Star/con man with a “normal” sounding name!
If for some reason people still don't know who he is and what he looks like, he might be able to pull a Nikki Haley and change his name to sound less like his birth name before his candidacy and campaigning
I read the Trump was trying to get Mark Devine to appointment Ramaswamy to Vance’s vacated seat meaning Trump want to dump Ramaswamy. I like Rama putting his hat in the OH governor’s race -that’s less of a sure thing
AKA he got the boot for his comments that scared the cult, so they are moving him. He didn't buy the presidency so he is isn't on the "you can fuck with the cult for fun" list
"DOGE" does not, in any official or real capacity, exist any more than "POTTATBRSSTEOWGETBWTC" (Department of Pointing Out that Trump is Actually 3 Bags of Rat Shit Stacked on Top of Each Other with Googly Eyes on the Top Bag and Wearing a Trench Coat," of which I am Arch-Duke.
Doge isn't a real thing to be capable of "starting." It's mobster code for a grift. There's no such agency in government or in nonprofit or business registration. Figment of criminal imagination impersonating authority. I'm not kidding. Where are the lawyers?
Not sure which will be funnier. Watching Vivek lose the gubernatorial race in Ohio and having his political career ended or watching him win in a dog catches car scenario and being fully exposed as the charlatan he is.
Poor Vivi realizing the magats will never accept him as one of them. He wanted Vance’s senate seat but was denied. Now he thinks they’ll elect him governor?
Hopefully the Ohio Democrats will dig into this grifter / fraudsters background and peel back the curtain on how the fast talking criminal made his fortune. This guy modeled his companies after Theranos.
Remember when Coulter told Viv she could not vote for him because he wasn’t white, he stood there smiling… he was not mad since he wouldn’t vote for himself for the same reason
Love it cause he’ll never win that governorship. That state is too racist to allow that, doesn’t matter how “conservative” he is. Then he’ll have to go back to just being a vulture.
DOGE has always been doomed to fail. Two billionaires with no conception of how government works hiring a bunch of tech types who have no conception of how government works.
This is a good illustration of the truth that the broligarchs care ONLY FOR THEMSELVES AND WILL ABANDON THIS COUNTRY AND THEIR STATED GOALS IN A NY MINUTE TO MAKE MORE $$$$$ AND HAVE MORE POWER. They are scum. Scum, I tell you! 💩💩💩
Native American Indian politician... to run for Ohio governor: What a Breakthrough in American History!
The 1800 Replacement Theory "The White Immigrants Will Replace Us!"
Fair point but Louisiana is not Ohio, it’s more diverse in LA and Bobby Jindal was a fairly charming southerner whose Republican Party pre-dated the current Trump influence. So, I stand by the point. No way the OH GOP elects him due to #1 racism and your point #2) his status as a certified clown
Louisiana was a confederate state. Ohio never was. I’ve never lived in either so I’ll take your word for it, but if I have to guess Ohio is no worse than Louisiana.
I strongly suspect he was already feeling pushed out by the South African Apartheid baby who has set up residence at Maralago. You don’t really think Elon was going to work with him as an equal, did you?
Vivek is being pushed out of DOGE (possibly by Elon.). That's why
Trump wanted Gov DeWine to appoint Vivek to fill JD Vance's Senate seat.
DeWine refused, so Vivek is running for Ohio gov to save face. DeWine's termed out in 2026.
Vivek & Elon don't play nice with others. Neither does Trump. It's going to be painful & upsetting, but will be very interesting how quickly egos get bruised & have ketchup dumped on them!
It was always stupid that there were two of them leading it anyhow, kind of the opposite of government efficiency. I think they should both not be in it, in fact I'm okay with both of them not being in the country or the realm of the living for that matter.
if he goes into state government (which he is reportedly doing) then Musk will have to do DOGE all by himself and we all know he can't do anything by himself.
It's over before it starts.

I think you're right. I have family in Iowa, and I feel like RNC/DNC don't have a grasp on sentiments. There's no majority MAGA, just old-school GOP who aren't abreast of news. They'll notice when MAGA doors start hitting them in the ass and tariffing them out of export business.
You retweeted blatant misinformation into my timeline today, from Scott Shapiro about TikTok. I like your Elon/Bannon focus, but retweets like that without adding context are irresponsible. You have a lot of followers, you should not use your platform to amplify misinformation.
So Ramaswamy is just as thin skinned as the rest of these pricks. It’s a get even thing for Dewine passing over him as a choice for the senate. Seriously, bat shit crazier we could not be in this country. I guess a generation of overly entitled men has emerged from the shadows.
He needs to play Jeopardy against Sharrod Brown, all Fed & Ohio Questions, and let that decide the winner. Make that Vovek creep the new ambassador to Guam. Sorry Guam.

The shape of things to come, until Elon tries that with Donald.
So sad

They know it’s a political death sentence.

But then, they’re stupid enough to vote for Trump so maybe they can be lied to enough to get him elected too
Who is he kidding it’s the funding gravy train he’s running for
