    Mark my words, Chris Christie will be the last holdout in the primaries I guarantee you. He knows Trump is going to get convicted and is banking on slipping in as the only viable alternative in Q3 of next year.

      I’d prefer Haley if we had to end up with a Republican. She at least seems to understand geopolitics and the failing stance of being staunchly anti-abortion more than Christie.

      She tows the party line, I think, mostly because she has to, but is more sensible (for a Republican) on many issues.

    He couldn’t gain enough support from the party he is campaigning against or against his own, often racist, party? Shhhhhhocker.

      he said that he was the candidate libzzzzzzz were scared of.

      Remember when GOP candidates ran on such tag lines like “I’m a uniter, not a divider”. That guy even got two presidential terms. It seems almost quaint now that a GOP candidate would boast about actually working with the other side to govern the country.

    Tim Scott: “I’m ending my campaign for the Republican presidential nominee.”

    Literally everyone:

      Everyone on that stage is running for second place Republican. Which will be third place overall.

      The whole thing is a waste of everyone’s time.

            This. Anyone watching Vivek’s rhetoric during the debates can see exactly what his goal is. He’s using the same playbook as Trump, and is the only one left on stage that hasn’t openly criticized him. He’s currently the perfect brand of crazy the GOP seems to love right now and would slot in perfectly as a VP candidate that has the best chance of becoming President behind an unhealthy geriatric presumptive nominee. God help us.

        It’s insane that people would vote for someone who is too cowardly to even answer softball questions from his own propaganda network on a stage of suck-ups.

    I appreciate that he tried to claim the gay slander was because he was black when being gay is a much bigger issue to them
