Vivek says too many of the right things today when mere months ago he was a globalist parrot.

The man reminds me of the "conservative" candidate that ran in 2002 in Arizona to the right of the GOP candidate.
Said all the right things, split a 70% GOP vote in half, and resulted in Janet fucking Napolitano in office.

He's certainly good at faking it if that's the case. Most people that try fake anti-establishment values tend to expose themselves in one way or another. Rick Perry tried copying Ron Paul in 2012 because Ron promised to dissolve 5 executive departments on his first day. Rick's handlers told him to do the same, but narrowed it down to 3. When asked which 3 during a debate, he drew a total blank.

It's quite possible his experiences have caused him to turn his back upon his previous masters.
If that's the case, let him prove himself as a hatchetman for the Trump whitehouse.

Doesn't it go against anti-immigration and conservatism to vote for a migrant, let alone an indian billionaire? (hurr durr, america founded by migrants).

if anything it bolsters conservative talking points about proper vetting of the right migrants. his parents were from a high caste, both very educated and successful once they got over here (dad an engineer and lawyer, mom a psychiatrist). not your average street shitters. plus it would insulate against criticisms of racism/xenophobia/anti immigrant etc.

plus, rich immigrants hate the unwashed illegal masses almost as much as your average groyper

as a disclaimer i don't like the guy and he has zero shot at becoming the nominee but i can see how it would be a positive

That post on Biden's back-stab of Israel after their own version of 9/11 was in December.
Since then, his donors have turned on him, the universities that have backed him, and the entire DNC for 2024 and likely beyond.

Considering we've already seen articles about the rise of multiracial white supremacy I doubt it will offer him any insulation. Also as you said he's upper caste which would absolutely be used against him.

There's nothing Boomers like more than finding someone who belongs to a favored lib identity group and parading him around because he's voting or running as a Republican. It would be even better if Vivek was a tranny.

i'm not claiming it's a fool proof way to own the libs and make it so democrats aren't capable of criticizing. just that it could be a useful cudgel. like another poster pointed out, conservatives love parading conservative minorities. and in a way i think they should, to continue to show people aren't a monolith and identity politics is useless.

What's the name of the candidate that split the GOP vote in half? I tried looking this up and got some very different results.

Where are you getting this? I don't remember Pence ever running in 2015/2016.

We are completely past the point of useful cudgels. If the Democrats gave a shit about optics or being embarrassed, then they wouldn't have stolen the presidential election in broad daylight, or gone as completely mask-off as they have with the persecution of their political enemies as they have. They are using every opportunity that they have to achieve victory, moral or immoral, legal or illegal, short-sighted or not, and the people opposing them shouldn't burden themselves with an untested pajeet who doesn't quite pass the smell test for a lot of people.

The only way I would be okay with him being in any sort of power is for that power to be the smallest amount possible, and to have a close eye kept on him where he can be removed at a moment's notice if he starts not following through on his tough talk. But even then, why not just put someone else who has a proven track record in that same spot? Name recognition doesn't matter if you're just selecting for some random minor cabinet position, so why not offer it to, for example, some state level politician who has done good things for his people already?
