Can Vivek Ramaswamy become President?

He has charisma, abysmal far-right politics and is a blowhard but is not literally an inmate. He ticks a lot of GOP boxes. Sigh

The only way - the [i]only [/i]way - he could get the nomination and office is if Trump is out of the running.

The greater fear is that our justice system won't be able to close with train-sized loophole in time regarding a current felon being able to run as the nation's leader. Should Trump receive the nomination and win the presidency without a decent Democratic nominee put forth, the next four years may push the country in a direction from which reversing course will take generations.

@Graylight I've heard it suggested that he could be Trump's VP. Given he is younger and more competent Trump, that would be a worry.

@Burnley123 Well, maybe so, maybe no. Traditionally, the VP spot doesn't get handed to the next best in line. Oftentimes, a VP pick isn't known at all to the general public, and you can bet Trump wouldn't take anyone who stole even a second's worth to TV time from him. And our VP role, while is shouldn't be, it diminished to the capacity of meeting ambassadors, sitting in at meetings and extending the President's agenda quietly. That doesn't sound like Ramaswamy.

In this new world, of course, anything is possible.
