oh no, you actually sat through the whole thing? Thank you for the roundup, I have a hard time stomaching the actual event. 5 minutes in i feel like a brain worm has burrowed deep into my frontal lobe
Honestly it was better than I expected. If Ramaswamy wasn't there, I really wouldn't have minded it that much. He just came off so sleazy to me. Christy said something along the lines of he was the ChatGPT candidate. If you had an AI make a young, slick, influencer-looking MAGA Republican, it probably would look a lot like him. He was very Trump-like in behavior, talking over people and saying purposely ignorant things. The rest were plain vanilla Republicans closer to what we used to get, except Desantis, and Scott to a lesser extent.
If either the Bush presidents seem bearable at this point to you, the rest of the candidates were as tolerable as Reps get. More just Crap Original Strength instead of Crap Ulta Plus Xtreme.
Well thank you for your service 🫡 comment in this community more often, your insights are appreciated!
I will stand by until such time as I am needed again!
