it doesn t mean it s the wrong position. i think the republican party does need to stand for continuing support for ukraine. that s a personal view, but it s not a view, frankly, that a lot of republican primary voters have right now, and i think what it speaks to is this populist influence we see in the republican party and american politics more broadly. it s the ascendant possession, and that s driving what i think is a perspective for many republican primary voters that s quite divergent from what chris christie laid out the other night. you mentioned ramaswamy and his view on the war in ukraine, and that prompted a response from nikki haley. this is what she said. underyour under your watch you would make america under your watch you would make america less safe. you have no foreign policy experience, and it shows. and you know what? lahnee, does that experience matter to republican voters? of course former president trump, when he came into office, he also didn t have foreign p
one of the biggest in the world. and he will make the short drive to fulton county. but, back to this debate. we are looking for a strong, committed leader. but pence came across as part of, you know, the earnest college freshman, maybe circa 1992. he was almost like a part minister trying to teach the g.o.p. according to bush cheney. pence would really be a great preacher. it was quite a spectacle though because vivek ramaswamy, an outsider, he bills himself as a brag that tis, a brash kind of tony robbins figure who no one knew a few months ago getting pig piled by the old g.o.p. establishment. among the g.o.p. voters, guess who did better? i have had enough already tonight of a guy who sounds like chatgpt. now is no, ma am not the time for on-the-job training. we don t need to bring in a rookie. we don t need a president who is too young. under your watch you will make america less safe. you have no foreign policy experience and it shows.
look at what putin did today. he killed prigozhin. when i was at the he win u.n. the russian ambassador suddenly died. this guy is a murderer. and you are choosing a murderer over first of all mr. ramaswamy, you have 30 seconds i wish you in your future on the boards of lockheed martin and raytheon you have been pushing this lie all, week nikki haley. you want to go and defund israel the false lies of a professional make america less safe. you have no foreign policy experience! and it shows. it shows. you know what? that was a moment. that was a real moment. look, nikki haley s oh mantra is, i don t back down to
[applause] first of all, mr. ramaswamy, you have 30. seconds but when came off of it but you have been pushing this rise. you want to go and defund israel. you want to okay, let me address that. i m glad you brought that up. the false lies of there you have it make america less safe. you have no foreign policy experience, and it shows! it shows. you don t have foreign policy experience and it shows. the reality is, the people of foreign policy experience, it shows what a disaster it has been, from the iraq war on down to other pointless wars, no win wars, that these administrations, from foreign policy establishments in both parties, having let us into i think the results speak for themselves. they ve been disastrous. and so i do think that i am the only person bringing clear
he wants to make america less safe. you have no foreign policy experience, and it shows. well, vivek was slammed, as you guys heard there he also got so much time responding on stage because every time his name was mentioned he got to speak yet again. the candidates talked about economy, hot topic for voters who say they are paying more for everything. must reverse bidenomics so that middle class families have a chance at succeeding. we cannot succeed as a country. if you are working hard and you can t afford groceries, a car, or a new home. we also cannot succeed when the congress spends trillions and trillions of dollars, those rich men north of richmond have put us in this situation. but nikki haley pushed back saying it s production fault, not joe biden s. the truth is that biden didn t do this to us. our republicans did this to us, too. when they passed that $2.2 trillion covid stimulus bill, they left us with
