VIva Vivek but not as president of the USA

There is non-stop publicity about Vivek Ramaswamy, the 38-year-old bio-tech entrepreneur who wants to beat Donald Trump and then Joe Biden to become president of the United States. He has become the whizz kid, longest-shot Republican contender who has suddenly climbed right up to third or maybe even second place behind you know who. One of the reasons is that he makes himself available for every possible interview whether it be a podcast or a local radio station or the big boys of the media world. But now the glamour boy with a private plane has ruined it. He has admitted he is a conspiracy theorist and doesn't believe the full story has been told about 9/11. He raised a bizarre matter in an interview the other day when he wondered why there were no federal agents on any of the passenger planes, implying that somehow the US government of the day knew al-Qaeda was going to hijack the planes and fly them into the Twin Towers and Pentagon. Later he denied he suggested any such thing and claimed he was talking about the January 6 attack on the Capitol. Now come on, Mr Ramaswamy, you can't talk about federal agents not being on board the 9/11 hijacked planes and then claim you were misquoted. I hate it when politicians do that. Voters are not idiots. They heard what they heard, and, like me, they probaby didn't think much of it. A million man hours have been spent investigating 9/11. I reckon we know pretty much everything by now and the old conspiracy theory about how the US government was somehow involved is pure tosh. Is Vivek going to claim the US never landed on the moon next and that aliens from outer space are even now having lunch at some secret US military base? Conspiracy theorists should never be allowed to stand for president. Vivek Ramaswamy has blown it and blown his chances and will have some explaining to do at tonight's first Republican debate on Fox News.
