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

... And Trump proved that a conman does not disqualify someone from the highest office of the land, and in fact, that a yuuuge asset, so he's got that going for him. One minor [b][i]glitch[/i][/b], there are so many suckers in our country, and 99% of them would rather die than see a brown guy, from a [i]shithole[/i] country become President. It's kind of like, God forbid, a Muslim, native to Kenya, become President. What will they do? start another Tea Party? That's been done.

@Northwest I've said this to other people but we here have a Conservative Hindu PM. I don't agree with Sunak but tbh he is more like Romney than Trump on the political spectrum.
We also have Suella Braverman as Home Sevretary. She is a Buddhist but is also staunchly on the authoritarian right of the Conservative Party. Your Brexity, rightwing Tory voters who think immigrants are stealing our jobs really like her, just as they also liked Priti Patel.
Racial preferences can be a selective thing. If you are an upper-middle-class politician who beats down on immigrants and fights the war on 'woke', then you get a pass. Obviously, America is not the same but this is something that surprised me.
