The other candidates are still constrained—even subconsciously—by the need to be grounded in reality. Or at least to stay in sight of it. Trump and Ramaswamy are the only two who understand that that’s not what the base wants. The other candidates are offering cocaine and heroin. And 10 years ago, that was enough. No more. Trump and Ramaswamy are offering uncut fentanyl. They understand what the base needs to get high these days.
I really hope someone other than one of those two wins the nomination. This country needs a serious conservative party, and if the GOP is not willing to be that then we are all poorer for it.
