Many people said it was likely to happen and indeed it has. Vivek Ramaswamy has now overtaken Ron DeSantis to become the top loser to Donald Trump in the GOP primary race. According to a Kaplan Strategies poll [LINK HERE] Ron DeSantis has now dropped to third place in the presidential preference polling.
KAPLAN – “Vivek Ramaswamy, biotech investor, has made significant strides in his political journey, tying with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the latest national GOP poll. Both candidates claimed the support of 12 percent of likely GOP voters, coming second to President Donald Trump, who maintains a dominant 48 percent lead.
Doug Kaplan, founder of Kaplan Strategies, the firm that conducted the poll, highlights the rising popularity of Ramaswamy in the face of nine competitors. “Ramaswamy outperformed six other hopefuls by more than double, marking a significant surprise in this poll,” Kaplan comments.
While DeSantis remains a top-tier candidate amongst non-Trump choices, he now shares this status with Ramaswamy. The reactions of these camps in the face of this new dynamic are anticipated with interest.
Despite DeSantis’ favorable rating of 59 percent amongst GOP voters, Kaplan suggests that Ramaswamy may have the potential for a higher ceiling, as he is less well-known amongst Republican voters, with a 27 percent Uncertain rate.
Meanwhile, the poll underscores the unwavering support President Trump holds within the GOP, despite the crowded field challenging him. Trump boasts a combined 69 percent favorability rating, leaving little room for uncertainty.” (MORE)
The Swamy is a plant and his rise shows how gullible and dumb repukes are.
Wrong again. Ramaswamy is NOT a member of the WEF nor is he acting on behalf of George Soros. See the link I left above; he’s suing the WEF. Clever WEF knows Ramaswamy is NOT with them but published his name as a member, to injure him politically so he doesn’t win. They already have Gavin Newsom, D.Gov. Ca.

In small claims court years after the fact.

Read the thread before you go pouncing on people.
Your assertions are answered in full a great number of times over.
I think thesunwentdown on the, thesunisup….
Not nice.
Tant pis.
You’re in the wrong place. WE SEE THE STRINGS….
You are absolutely correct regarding Ramaswamy not being a WEF member or a George Soros acolyte.
Many of the comments on this thread regarding Ramaswamy are just plain wrong and people ill-informed.
It’s like folks want to replicate the old Salem witch trials, contemporized with ‘WEF! Throw him in the pond!’ Very disappointing that some are so rigid.
Vivek is a WEF, World Economic Forum guy. All you need to know.
MAGA!
You my friend are very wrong. Dig deeper. The guy is alright.
Wow! I have never seen a treehouse thread like this become so circular in discussion regarding Vivek and citizenship. It reminds me of the Crane brothers arguing about the Robert’s Rules of Order in one of their episodes. It honestly doesn’t matter one way or another and here is why…
There is only a vote for President Trump (whether he ends up on the republican ticket or is a write in). But that is it for this election cycle and all future ones. Everything else is background noise. If Trump is not elected President again, our problems in America are no longer able to be solved in DC because DC is the problem. There will be no 2nd “future” Trump that is able to run, “get elected” and correct America in the future. The system in DC will be impenetrable. 2020 election showed DC had 99% control of election outcome and there were some loose ends to their fraud. If Trump doesn’t win 2024, it will mean DC now has 100% control going forward and all future elections are actors on a stage.
Looking back on Reagan, Perot and now Trump… this is truly the last stand for us to correct it at the ballot box. It doesn’t matter who you want to talk about, if the name is not Trump, it no longer matters. Sorry to sound so melodramatic but this is the last thread to liberty thru the ballot box (and the outcome we expect “Trump wins in a landslide” is not even remotely guaranteed).
I don’t believe for a second that President Trump is LESS than 60% in a Republican national primary.
This is a desperate narrative shift with the collapse of DeSanctimonius to try to provide a prop for Murdoch to try to gin up any suspense in the primary.
I agree with President Trump, why bother with energy and spectacle of participating in debates simply to prop up Fox’s revenue stream.
Suffocate their revenue lifeblood and simply “walk away” from their game.
Chapeau President Trump!
100% Agree !!!
Trump knows the RNC, GOP, FOX & RINO Sewer exist to destroy him … give them NOTHING President Trump – WeThePeople support you.
The numbers don’t mean much with the election still 475 days away. Once Trump gets nominated, the Repug support will go over 75%. But the Repugs are only about 30% of the voters and he will have to convince most of the so-called Independents and more of the Democraps to vote for him if he wants to avoid a repeat of the 2020 fiasco by the Bureaucratic State.
Go away thinly veiled troll.
Not a single thing in “Pokey’s” comment is at odds with anything you said.
Projection, repugnant one.
Perot was used by Carville to split the white republican male vote and elect Clinton.
I originally thought that Trump was in it in ’16 to do the same for Hillary, but figured out quickly that Trump is real.
Yes. You are absolutely correct.
Totally agree with not changing horses midstream – especially when the “stream” is a raging torrent carrying institutions and old, cast statuary with it.
Vivek can prove his mettle in a position under Trump’s administration. He is young.
Let us be prudent. Employ and test at the same time.
Felix-I love your dogs…they made me smile! I have such a huge affinity for large breed dogs..they are so special!
So Pence rose a little after his, “That’s not my problem’ comment.
Good grief the stupid burns.
Well, that’s what happens when only Indies and RINOS are polled for the R primary. We MAGA don’t do polls.
This is even more evident when doing the R vs D comparison. Trump is ahead and that is while only polling Uniparty and Indies. TPTB know this and this is exactly whey they are doubling and tripling down on indictments. But they still can’t figure out: WE DON’t CARE!!!! We see their game.
He actually lost three points: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/06/27/morning-consult-president-trump-extends-his-polling-lead-over-gop-field-and-also-defeats-joe-biden/
Polls are not meant to inform…
They are concocted to influence.
I noticed that, too. Sheesh.
Completely uncredible.
Pence is a swamp creature. That became evident the day that he retroactively vetoed the Religious Freedom Act which he had signed a week later, all because a bunch of Hollyweird has-beens like Loretta Swit got all huffy and sobby.
Nobody…no one…beats DJT! That’s why the left, the swamp, the uniparty, the rhino rats, the DC corruptive deep state, the frickin commies, commonly known as our leaders…are so focused on him and taking him out. DJT is their only concern…
and ‘we the people’ amassing behind him!!!
To be clear…Donald J. Trump is the ONLY tested and battle-hardened Presidential Candidate in the entire field. The rest of these power hungry, greedy, self-serving losers would only speed up the final destruction of what was once the greatest Nation on Earth. If there is even a small glimmer of hope for salvation, it will be through the guidance of President Trump and no one else. The Democrat Communist Party, Washington, DC, Mainstream Media, all of our enemies foreign and DOMESTIC, know this and is why such vicious attacks, constantly, 24/7/365/ for years, are towards this one man. Should Donald John Trump defy all odds and make it to the White House, the World will witness true Hell on Earth as President Trump goes about cleansing and making right all of the wrongs suffered by this Nation and our allies. It will be true judgement at warp speed, and I earnestly hope the bugs, worms, birds, and rope manufacturers cannot keep up with the carnage from the cleansing of Washington, DC. Sorry about getting carried away there for a moment, hope springs eternal.
I like your vision, and concur with your assessment, there is only one, Trump.
To Hell with the rest, I have nothing but contempt for their participation in the ongoing Coup.
I have been following this graphic since Sundance has started posting it. An interesting aspect is the way the numbers move as focus group testing is performed by the Uni-Party Puppet Masters …. adding candidates and assessing the impact. Keep in mind that we, the voters, will never know which polls are real and which are fake … polling is a real mathematical and statistical science that works when allowed to function and is not rigged to present a desired outcome.
Aside from the national level effort to remove President Trump via lawfare and national level rules changes … Since the CA RNC rules change story it seems that the game afoot is to now keep President Trump below the 50% level.
Also, it would be safe to add a “RED X” on; Ted Cruz, Kristi Noem and Greg Abbot. For what ever reasons, they have all publicly decided to stay away from the maelstrom of 2024, until its time to “support” the primary winner.
Greg Abbot, Gov TX, also has an interesting decision to make. The last 2 Governors of TX (including Abbott) were ex-TX AG’s. The current TX AG is on trial to be impeached and there is a Baby Bush III waiting in the wings to be the “appointed” replacement … the same guy whom the current AG Paxton defeated in the last election.
Reminder, that the RNC can essentially “name” and “disqualify” whom ever they please as long as their actions comply with party rules and charter AT THE TIME OF SELECTION.
Paxton started an inquiry into deceptive medical practices/racketeering and another into Dell Children’s hospital regarding puberty blockers and trans counselling in May 2023. He spearheaded the Supreme Court case and the 2020 election fraud. Now he’s being impeached……
Vivek is a shiny polished thing. And he is ahead of DeSantis. That is how bad DeSantis is.
Vivek draws about 40 people at his gatherings. And he is ahead of DeSantis.
Vivek ignores the Economic part of MAGA and says he likes capitalism(most probably the crony part). And he is ahead of DeSantis.
Yeah – Ramaswampy is a fox in sheeps clothing. You have to go way way way back to oh 2021 to see his true colors from his Tweets. I could potentially write off his college education being funded by a Soros organization but the tweets reveal his true person. I’ve heard him speak and interviewed a number of times and have been impressed with his ability to convey a message. Unfortunately it’s all performance.
https://codemonkeyz.substack.com/p/vivek-ramaswamy
Regards the China warning tweet in 2021, 2 yrs later China IS winning. Big Tech’s cure was worse, Ramaswamy was correct, he did see what was coming.
Regards Jan 6th, the nation was/is demoralized, hundreds are imprisoned and their families destroyed, some died as an unnecessary event became a target of the Trump haters.
No man is perfect of course; including Trump. However, Trump’s intelligence in practical matters exceeds the current Pack of Candidates parrotting from their 105 IQ’s so transparently uninspired and insignificant.
And code monkey’s point was?
Niki Haley?! Kristi Noem?! Chris Christie?! DeSantis?! They spend the Magic Bucks on showmanship to mask their insignificant ability to contest Xi and Putin, LuLa and Trudeau. Pence is “wet clay” and merely a spoiler to lower the number of votes for Trump as is Tim Scott; ask if Xi and Putin would take his calls or discuss nuclear war and trillion dollar trade with Mr. Scott or Mr. Christie.
Don’t vote for the person who promises something for your town, state or favorite pastime.
Vote for the person who can prevent nuclear war or manage the nation in nuclear war fallout.
Ramaswamy was right when he tweeted that big tech makes Presidents disappear. Social media sites did exactly that to Trump.
I disagree with his comments re J6.
He is not funded by a George Soros organization. He was the recipient of fellowship funding from the Paul and Daisy Soros Fellowship. Paul Soros was apolitical and was an independent businessman.
He does not believe the election was stolen. DISQUALIFYING.
Ramaswamy company pitched governments on effort to install universal covid patient records surveillance databaseDatavant sought to create a universal database for governments that displays “every patient who has been tested for Covid-19.”https://www.dossier.today/p/ramaswamy-company-pitched-governments?sd=pf
“So, Datavant has a toolkit that has hundreds of customers at this point and sits behind the HIPAA firewalls of healthcare institutions like payers or lab companies or EMR systems and takes patient level data within those databases and de-identifies it, strips out all the identifiable information, like, you know, Matt Gline’s name and social security number, and replaces it with cryptographically secure hashes that can be used to link data between sources.”
That is, 1) he’s helping with a database that could make COVID information free to all and
2) he’s making it much harder to identify and target individuals within that database.
I note, first, that I think the government opposes both of these things and, second, that this sort of thing can’t be made perfect. As to whether it works better than alternatives, I am inclined to give it the benefit of the doubt while we test it. Betting the farm that it’s all bad or all good before we see how it works out would be insane.
Enjoy your servitude.
This guy reminds me of Obama. Came out of nowhere and all of a sudden running for President. He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
So, what you are saying is that if the person does not have celebrity status they cannot run for President.
You have just ruled out many, many Americans who may have outstanding qualifications to be President.
Even if only 1% of American adults have the qualifications to be an outstanding president, that’s over 2 MILLION. Who are they and why haven’t we heard of ANY of them? And why are we suddenly hearing about this Hindu who suddenly pretends like he’s been a conservative his whole life?
He’s an astroturf candidate, just like the astroturfed “conservative” media people like Benji Shapiro, or “conservative” pseudo-intellrctual (actually a “leftist, but go slower woketards! you’re awakening the rabble, now go clean up your room and take your meds, also, I’m projecting.”) Jelly Butter Peanut, Jordan B . Peterson.
All of their fame is pre-manufactured rot, not a gradual, organic rise to fame, like, for example, Rush Limbaugh.
its not that VR is better than the rest, its that no one like the rest. i see it as more as a retaliation against the club. Ron just listened to the wrong people. now, i think that his 2028 bid might be in flux.
That is the RINORAT UNIPARTY Trifecta Plan:
1. damage unprepared DeSantis to lose to President Trump.
2. steal 2024 from Trump
3. destroy MAGA.
Steal Florida while they are at it.
Make it a Blue machine state, pre-weaponized by RdS, and they have that huge electoral block forever.
As far as I can tell, Vivek Ramaswamy is a liar and a cheat. All the information I have been able to find precisely when Ramaswamy’s parents became U.S. citizens, if, indeed they are even U.S. citizens now, is nowhere to be found.
If Ramaswamy was born within the jurisdiction before his parents were nationalized, he is a birthright U.S. citizen, but not an Art. II, §1, cl. 5 natural-born citizen.
Which is it, Vivek? Don’t try and have it both ways by simply lying to the public about your U.S. citizenship status.
According to lawyer Robert Barnes, Ramaswamy meets all the requirements to run for president.
And?
And what?
Not surprising. Anyone who has worked with Indians (dot, not feather) know that they will falsify anything to get a job, or place someone in a job (if it’s a contract house recruiter) instead of someone more deserving.
Things you should know about Ramaswamy.

When Pence, Haley, and Scott drop out – does most of their % go to PDJT?
Methinks Cuckinson and Jersey Fatso will stay in, in order to throw as much as possible to the Uniparty.
“Top Loser”. Love it!
Vivek seems a bit egocentric………..
He’s running against Donald Trump at a time when the entire Republican party should be behind him, no question. Egocentric only partly describes Vivek. There’s a choice few other words that can be added.
Not really true. He’s the only candidate that spoke out in defense of Trump’s political persecution and showed up to support him when he processed. Please don’t dismiss that with*political showmanship*. He took a risk that none of the other hopefuls would, because they were unwilling to look *tainted*.
Excellent point. I forgot about Ramaswamy showing up to support Trump when he was being processed. Thanks for the reminder.
A class act on Ramaswamy’s part.
And Trump isn’t? smh!
Vivek is the new … “top loser” … to PDJT. Hahahaha SD … you’re on a roll! Keep me laughing. Please!
Vivek donated to the DNC and ActBlue. Not very MAGA of him!
https://www.campaignmoney.com/political/contributions/vivek-ramaswamy.asp?cycle=20
Trump was a registered Democrat. Your point is?
This is the best explanation of Natural Born Citizen! This is how I understand it. Read the article and see if you agree.
The Constitution sets the least rigorous requirements for the Representatives b/c decisions are made by 435 members.
The requirements are tougher for Senators who have 100 people making decisions.
The toughest requirements are for the President since so much power is vested in one person.
Representatives must be age 25 and a US citizen for 7 years.
Senators must be age 30 and a US citizen for 9 years.
Presidents must be age 35 and a Natural Born Citizen.

Meatball and Momma Karen….
are racing to the bottom….
I don’t trust Vivek, but he sure does talk a good game. He knows just what conservatives and disaffected liberals want to hear. I expect the never-Trump crowd to quickly jump on the Vivek train.
Vivek is Trumps VP after the convention.
Motormouth Ben Shapiro must read here. He was talking down this poll. He has his head so far up Neocon Ron’s rear end.
+just like ever other Isn’trael -firster.
Vivek might sound good but be suspicious of someone who got support from Soros and WEF. Vote accordingly. Trump 2024!
Vivek Ramaswamy is a political unknown. He seems to say all the right words; but I would be very wary of him. There are too many people who have been swayed and are grasping at this new, shiny object. But like fish, by the time they realize there’s a hook in it it’s too late.
