People can disagree and even not like one another, but you can clearly still be respectful about things.

No matter who is in office it is all controlled by the real owners and managers of the country, what many including Vivek call the deep state or shadow government (Wall Street, Silicon Valley, military industrial complex, big oil, big pharma, super pac lobby groups as well as the three letter government agencies, state street, black rock, vanguard etc. )He is a good talker and seems like a great family oriented guy with good values and high moral standards but he is confined and constrained by the system just like any other. No matter who gets elected they will fail to deliver what the people actually want and voted for. They don’t work for the people, they work for the owners, and the owners will always put their interests before yours. Seems like a nice guy though. He just might do a good thing or two if elected but just like Trump will fail to deliver on most things.

Definitely way better than the GOP Primary Debates on legacy media. But I'm pretty stunned by what Nikki Haley said about giving Israel "whatever she needs, whenever she needs it. No questions asked." What if Israel elects a far left government and a Prime Minister similar to a Joe Biden or Barack Obama? Should we still give them whatever they need, whenever they need it, no questions asked? That's crazy talk. I love Israel and I don't mind supporting them especially to go after the animals who commit that barbaric attack on October 7th but the idea that we have to foot the bill for every ally including ones who are in better financial shape than we are makes no sense to me. Why don't these countries get loans to pay for these types of things rather than making the American people always foot the bill? And why does it seem like Nikki Haley (and many other RINO Republicans and Neo-Cons) are far more concerned about Israel's border security than our own? Could it have something to do with her donors in the Military Industrial Complex (ie Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, Northrup Grumman, General Dynamics, Boeing, etc)? Nikki Haley is clearly extremely committed to engaging in every never ending foreign conflict possible which is why she's the establishment Neo-Cons new preferred candidate. Trump's whole thing about ending the forever wars and creating peace is something the Military Industrial Complex simply can't abide. War monger Nikki Haley has never met a war she didn't like.
