      He is running to do what Trump wanted to do in 2016. When he fails to win, and he will, he will pivot his followers into some new media outlet. He may also be angling for a cabinet spot but he probably doesnt fit the mold for that.

      I now want to buy an old prison and turn it into a “Luxury” vacation spot for rich cunts. Probably would flood it with napalm if they pissed me off too much. So I probably shouldnt.

    Just looking at the amount of current, and former members, in prison, serving time, or losing their professional licenses.

    Staying with Vivek seems like the safer crazy to stay with. He’s expendable and you can try all the crazy ideas. Mainly because vivek seems to be willing to say or do anything and/or wants attention?

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    With the Iowa caucuses less than 50 days away, one of GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy’s top political advisers is leaving to work for former President Donald Trump’s campaign, according to multiple sources familiar with the move.

    Brian Swensen, who served as Ramaswamy’s national political director since the spring, confirmed to CBS News he is leaving and directed further questions about his future role to the Trump campaign.

    “We love Brian,” Tricia McLaughlin, Ramaswamy’s communications director, told CBS News.

    News of Swensen’s departure comes at a critical time for Ramaswamy, who has failed to recapture the momentum he had over the summer.

    The move comes just weeks after the Ramaswamy campaign announced it was sending all staffers from its Ohio headquarters to Iowa and New Hampshire.

    We’re sitting exactly where I want to be and I’m confident that we have the momentum ahead of us to be the nominee and more importantly to win this election in a landslide," he told reporters earlier this month in Iowa.
