295 comments in… And I’m sure it’s been said… I too smell a rat. Something is totally not right here. Especially with anything initiated by Newsome…

At the least, the completely corrupt DNC will be looking for some soundbites to take out of context for “Propaganda“ politicizing.

Let’s be sure there are well written rules and DeSantis gets to pick Moderator

I don't think it is more complicated than DeSantis and Newsom are trying to bypass the primaries. It's a Democrat/Republican debate before their nominees are selected. It is a way of setting in peoples' minds that these are the acceptable candidates.

and when Trump is relegated to a cell and Biden to his coffin then these default substitutes will be our only real choices.

I think Vivek is great. I used to like DeSantis, but he's flip-flopped and made some unforced errors in the campaign, just like Scott Walker from WI. I feel bad because I think he is a great governor, and I'm afraid his attempt to unseat Trump will be his undoing.

If he can disparage Soros and WEF and NWO kooks and convince me there's distance from that crowd that helped place him into the young, bright and wealthy club then I'm all for him.

Have you heard that he sued WEF because they lied about his association with them--and he won? He got everything he asked for: "public apology & disavowal and a commitment to never name someone again without their explicit permission." https://twitter.com/VivekGRamaswamy/status/1686420622006538258

Here is the letter: https://twitter.com/VivekGRamaswamy/status/1686447139906326528

I've followed him for a couple of years, and he is very anti-globalist and anti-woke. He was on the Charlie Kirk show today, and the interview is worth watching. (8/3/23)

He is being so ignored everywhere, and he is a seriously awesome man.

Will he be a contender to the Pretender In Thief in the Dem. primaries? Neo-Liberal Media will ignore and disparage him and link him to Trump in any way possible for the masses of Dumbocrats who eat up their propaganda. Let's see if he can win a primary or 3 to get some sort of voice amongst the DemoCult voter base although "super delegates" will nullify him yet again. Then the Media WILL extoll his antiVaxxism and other TRADITIONAL Democrat and Liberal views to seduce some of the Anti-Trump Republickins away from GOP primary support and definitely he will get PLENTY of pre-packaged coverage in the general campaign if he is deemed to be pulling Republicans away from GOP Candidate. He will remain a non-factor to media should that not become the case. PS..I was handed a stack of "Republicans for Kennedy" bumper stickers so it's already a FACT that he's being used as an anti-Trump Anti-GOP tool.

RFK Jr. is a throw back like Jim Webb was in 2015 primary, as a Senator he'd just be another Manchin with his role to play and a microphone to lecture to but as Pres. he'd be stirring the pot, be assaulted by the media, and fighting tooth and nail, getting back-stabbed (hopefully only figuratively) by various DEEP STATERS like Trump was. THEY OWN our GVT. and will not give it back to us without much effort and opposition.

Hannity has been lobbying hard for this on his radio program....I understand the political benefit for Newsom but not DeSantis, so not sure why DeSantis would agree to it

Newsome is a WEF muppet and as such has a peculiar odor... ;)
