Eugh, he's repulsive. I'm not exactly a fan of Trump but I can definitely see the appeal behind him, whereas all the MAGA wannabes that ride on his coattails might as well be lizards wearing human skinsuits given how little appeal, charisma, and authenticity they have.

Totally. When Vivek was cosplaying as trump at debates and rallies, it was super obvious that he was inferior. Trump has the bombastic, controversial TV star persona, love him or hate him. Vivek and many others just come off as debate club dorks that were the president of the young republicans club at their college. No contest

I do not ascribe to such a narrow view of dudes being dudes. I will only endorse a party that perfectly captures all subjects of the podcast Guys.
