Vivek 2024!

I have zero desire to have Trump as our president again.  We need a unifier who will speak truth to power.  

For anyone still deciding between Vivek and Trump, here's my analysis:

Vivek has a strong understanding of the constitution and laws. Trump failed his first term because he got duped by the "experts," and he is yet to acknowledge his shortcomings.

Vivek has a better connection with the younger generation. As a self-made entrepreneur and author of multiple books, Vivek can inspire more young people as a role model. Most of the younger generation tends to vote Democratic, proving that Trump has failed in bringing the youth so far.

Vivek is more well-read, well-spoken, and intelligent. His approach is more unifying and relatable to both sides, as seen in his podcasts and conflicts with protesters. Trump's approach is cruder and more divisive, which is not good when we are this close to a civil war.

Vivek is self-funded, allowing him to speak on issues like eminent domain and removing affirmative action. Trump is beholden to his donor class (Super PACs), who have invested a lot of money in Trump's legal cases and campaign, demanding a "return" later.  

Vivek is promising to shut down government agencies, while Trump is advocating for a new building for the FBI.

Vivek will start each year's budget starting at zero.  It will not depend on the previous year's budget.  We have been budget deficits for decades now, with total deficit completely unmanageable, and Vivek will get us closer to a balanced budget.

Vivek is more energetic, with almost 350 events last year, including hundreds of virtual summits and podcasts. Trump, on the other hand, is very old, managing only 30 events last year, and the legal fights have further drained him.

Vivek does not like playing the victim; his campaign is based on gratitude. In contrast, Trump's campaign (and his supporters) seek vengeance, forming their entire strategy around playing the victim.  Why should we have someone in office who is looking for vengeance against others?

~40% of Vivek’s donors have NEVER donated to a Republican or made a political donation before. The first-time donor % to most politicians is 2%. This is unheard of. That’s a movement.

There is a chance that Trump will go to jail before the elections. If that happens, it would not just embarrass Republicans; the entire country would be subject to ridicule. Vivek will face attacks as well, but he has a stronger background to fight back and leaves less room for mistakes.

 Vivek will shock the world in the primaries.
