    This guy must want to imitate Trump ... lie, lie, lie

    What he says happened ...

    GRINNELL, IOWA: Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy claimed he had a "civil exchange" on Thursday, October 6, 2023, when two angry protestors rammed their vehicle into his campaign's parked SUV, gave his team the middle finger, and drove off.

    What police say happened...

    A driver was backing out a parking space at a restaurant she had just eaten at, made minor contact with Ramaswamy's parked, empty, SUV ... stayed at the scene (didnt' flee) ... wasn't there to protest and had no idea who's car she accidentally backed into ...

    [EDIT ... I'm editing this post because there is video of her appearing to flip off Ramaswamy even though she (and the police report) says she wasn't there to protest)

    Mimicking a sociopathic liar to win votes. Not a good look.

    Ugh, what is it with maga embracing dishonesty. Maybe a byproduct of doing anything to win and setting your moral compass to Dear Leader.

    Not a good look, but sociopathic lying has been well proven to win votes. Especially if one comes up with a Big Lie and just repeats it often enough that people will believe it. Ramaswami just needs to come up with something better than his car getting rammed.

    Presidents can seed human catastrophes on a biblical scale - and lie about their involvement in them - but heaven forbid you lie about a minor traffic infraction.

    This guy would be better off trying his hand at tele evangelism. Not for me.

    His descent into madness has been captivating. He gets crazier literally by the TV appearance. It's like he reviews the most recent one and is like "OK...OK...That was strong, but still a little bit of noticeable sanity. GET BETTER V DOG!!"

    Why these cray crays can't stick with the anonymous phony anecdotes must be a fascinating psychological deep dive. Just make it up, don't name real people, and while everyone knows it's a lie, it can't be literally proven. But they have to go one more step, and add a real witness, who refutes it in an hour. The need to self-sabotage is weird.

    Even weirder to try to be More Trump. I suppose this subset is counting on him literally dying soon, and they think they will inherit the throne. But that in and of itself is lunacy. The Trump Qrowd is so deranged that the person who has already been anointed Next has been dead since 1999. And since he has been dead for 24 years, that means he will in fact never be dead. And you see an opening there, eh?

    What if you actually caught that car, Little Doggie?

    I'm beginning to think that Trump may be indestructible. How can an old, overweight man throw one childish temper tantrum after another without having a stroke or a heart attack? It's a mystery. Maybe he literally is an orange god.

    There are always the 80 year-old lifelong smokers, Al Michaels who says he has never intentionally eaten a vegetable, Keith Richards who <just throw in any auto-death item here>.

    But he just made it to average life expectancy, like maybe literally this month. Not sure he is actually even running a surplus yet.

    I mean good for him for maintaining breath. But not exactly a medical marvel just yet.

    I would suggest such a ridiculous liar far more likely of creating “human catastrophes”. Not that it’s likely he’ll ever have that opportunity as President, he really does seem like more of a grifter type.

    What is he going for? Trying to get his supporters to retaliate against innocent randoms? It might be “successful” in raising a little sympathy money, triggering some nutjob is an equally likely outcome from a lie like this. Only a sociopath wouldn’t consider that possible outcome for a slight bump in fundraising. Aside from being totally ridiculous with how easily disproven it was by the police incident report, he’s a complete piece of shit for making it about political violence. The political equivalent of Jessie Smollet.

    Ramaswamy is a younger version Trump without the baggage. Just my opinion three of the Republican candidates can be categorized as the generations of Trump. There's the original with the orange complexion, Boomer Trump, Meatball Ron DeSanctimonious, Gen. X Trump and Vivek Ramaswamy, Millennial Trump.

    Could they all be products of Artificial Intelligence? From all I've heard, the technology has no bounds.

    Interesting thing about this guy is that IMO, he has the money, charisma, intelligence, and back story to be a legit political player.

    Do you think he's just a compulsive liar or that he likes to troll people because these sorts of little controversies get him more attention?
