I got it. Your vibe that Vivek is trustworthy is based on objective support. Mine is just a vibe (eye roll). You’re getting tiresome. I already gave you objective support for why I don’t trust Vivek. His campaign to convince caucus voters to “Save Trump. Vote Vivek” revealed his opportunistic, disingenuous nature.
You want more? Just look at how much his “beliefs” have changed since 2020. His sudden “embrace” of MAGA is a shift from comments such as this one, made a week after the Jan. 6th “insurrection”.
“What Trump did last week was wrong. Downright abhorrent. Plain and simple. I’ve said it before and did so in my piece.”

And here’s what Vivek had to say in his 2022 book, “Nation of Victims” about Mike Pence’s role on Jan. 6th:
Mike Pence, a man I have great respect for, decided it was his constitutional duty to resist the president’s attempts to get him to unilaterally overturn the results of the election, even in the face of the January 6 Capitol riot,”
Then on August 27th on NBC’s “Meet The Press”, he had this to say:
“There was a historic opportunity that (Pence) missed to reunite this country in that window.”

Wasn’t the basis for your “informed opinion” that Vivek has been consistent in his statements?
Moving on, Vivek has been critical of Trump’s claim that the election was stolen, characterizing him as a sore loser. In his book, Vivek claimed he hadn’t seen evidence of outcome-altering election fraud. To my knowledge, he’s never recanted those statements. Being that this has been one of the few issues on which he’s stayed consistent (so far, at least) I won’t accuse him of flip-flopping on that but just being wrong.
No doubt Vivek made a calculated decision to differentiate himself from Trump in the lead up to announcing his candidacy. Then by the time primary season rolled around, his strategy changed to singing Trump’s praises. That’s all well and good, but it begs the question as to why he was running. Vivek’s positions on other issues, from funding for Israel, defending Taiwan, decriminalizing drugs, to pardoning Hunter Biden, have ranged from vague and non-committal to contradictory. Now if that record spells consistency to you then, I don’t know what to tell you.
I’ve given you an incomplete list of my objective support. Where’s yours?
I’ve spent enough time with you mbrfl whatever that means.
You accused Vivek supported according to you by your vibe.
I’m done.
Good bye and good luck.
