The GOP Play Date

I watched that stupid also-ran debate last night and honestly, I have nothing much to say about it. They’re calling Haley the “front-runner” which she isn’t and praising Chris Christie for defending her but that’s about it. And everyone acknowledges that DeSantis is weird and Ramaswamy is a complete asshole. A few highlights:

Christie to Ramaswamy: This is the fourth debate that you would be voted in the 1st 20 minutes as the most obnoxious blowhard in America pic.twitter.com/vwDerGOwlB — Acyn (@Acyn) December 7, 2023

Ramaswamy: If you want somebody who’s going speak truth to power, vote for someone who will speak truth to you. *starts talking how January 6th was inside job, replacement theory, how the 2016 election was stolen from Trump* pic.twitter.com/QbiYV29Q6L — Acyn (@Acyn) December 7, 2023

And DeSantis is obsessed with “child mutilation” words he used over and over again during the debate

I think that about covers it. These debates are pathetic. And yet CNN just announced that they are hosting two more of them in January. No, Trump won’t show up for them either.

By the way, according to Morning Joe, the ratings for the Newsom DeSantis debate were higher than for the Trump town hall with Hannity this week. I would guess it’s because a buch of Democrats tuned for the former but Trump has to be pissed anyway.
