Takeaways from the first Republican presidential primary debate
With Donald Trump skipping the first 2024 Republican presidential primary debate, eight of his primary rivals – most of them men wearing ties similar to the bright red one regularly worn by the former president – brawled for second-place status Wednesday night.

republicans hated obama. why does Ramaswamy think any of those racist clowns would vote for him? Why is he even running for a party that despises him because he isn’t white?
Bobby Jindal learned this lesson too. Nikki Haley as well. They're token minorities the GOP tries to trot out when things are getting too white.
Piyush and Nimrata will never learn the lesson. They are true Republicans through and through. And would given an any opportunity, gladly shill for the party and against the interest of people like themselves.
He, like many other minorities, especially Asians unfortunately, think that of they just act a little more white, act a little more of that racist trope of the model minority that they'll be accepted by the racist whites.
Also, he's probably grifting.
I just assume all Republicans are grifting.
They are.
He's probably running for a cabinet position.
Worked for Buttigeg, Ben Carson and Rick Perry.
The same could be asked of Tim Scott.
I honestly don't think he cares. I think it's more about being on TV, to be on TV more, to then turn the foolishness into paid appearances and hustle a podcast.
Vivek thinks because he agrees with them that things will be different.
He's not trying to win. Most of them aren't. They're just fundraising.
You'd think after trump more people would be aware.... He was grifting from the start and might of never even thought he had a shot. The campaign donations are basically a slush fund they have access to for anything they can make a half ass excuse to use it for. Never pay for another flight, meal or hotel room in your life after one relevant primary state showing.
Money. No one will vote for him, but the party as a whole loves when minorities join them, and they'll throw cash at them to be to say, "See? We aren't all white so we can't be racist."
I'm assuming he's paid to be a candidate. No he will never win the primary but he's up there. Also I think they might be able to vote for a black guy, as long as he's able to go up there and say "there's no such thing as racism". I mean they did platform ben carson,
And put Thomas on the bench because he was 'one of the good ones'.
