Ramaswamy argued that Ukraine just isn’t a democracy:
I’m truly having fun with watching the Ukraine Hawks quietly delicately tiptoe again from their place as this factor has unwound right into a catastrophe. The primary half of this race, I used to be the one particular person standing for it. Now. They’re truly quietly coming round to being extra cautious as they need to stage with the American folks right here. Ukraine just isn’t a paragon of democracy. This can be a nation that has banned 11 opposition events. It has consolidated all media into one state TV, media arm that’s not democratic. It has threatened to not maintain elections this yr until the US forks over more cash. That isn’t democratic.
It has celebrated a Nazi in its ranks, the comic in cargo pants. A person referred to as Zelensky doing it in their very own ranks. That isn’t democratic. Extra details for you that you just received’t hear from the mainstream in both get together or the mainstream media. The areas of Ukraine which might be occupied by Russia proper now within the Donbas, Luhansk, Donetsk. These are Russian-speaking areas that haven’t even been a part of Ukraine since 2014.
Tim Scott implied that immigrants from Yemen, Syria, and Iraq had been terrorist sleeper cells:
Tim Scott goes full Islamaphobia, “I imagine that we’ve sleeper terrorist cells in America. 1000’s of individuals have come from Yemen, Syria, and Iraq. If we’re going to take care of the nationwide safety emergency at our border we’ve to do it now. ” #GOPDebate pic.twitter.com/ufKKXZ2bI1

Scott mentioned, “I imagine that we’ve sleeper terrorist cells in America. 1000’s of individuals have come from Yemen, Syria, and Iraq. If we’re going to take care of the nationwide safety emergency at our border we’ve to do it now.”
The candidates who’re desperately struggling are pandering to the far proper for votes. Ramaswamy claimed that the final two presidential elections had been rigged. Ron DeSantis desires to ship the DOJ to school campuses, and the one individuals who have sounded sane are Chris Christie and Nikki Haley, and neither of these two goes to win something.
NBC Information gave two hours of community airtime to election denialism, racism, bigotry, and the worst that the far proper has to supply. When the failing Republican candidates must pander for votes, they need straight to the Trump poisonous swamp, which tells viewers every little thing that they should know concerning the state of the Republican Social gathering.
