If we were going on purely what they said (in this fictional scenario you can trust some politicians), as well as that he's not been entrenched in government, Vivek would be right near the top of the list. Vivek says great stuff (I don't believe him, but he says it), and he's probably not as swampy as some of the others.
I've said it from the start, I don't want him to be president, but I'm glad he's around and saying what he is. He's far from the least serious candidate.
Vivek might be the most swampy out of everyone, unless Bush or Obama was running for office. There are a bunch of videos surfacing of him debating at WEF things as a college student against Pete Buttigeg, he does a lot of work in Big Pharma, and he's not even American. Indians will say just about anything to get power, before they bend over and help their own kin into positions of power.
Again, I don't trust the guy. I'd still take him in a heartbeat if my other choices were Pence, Haley, Hutchinson, or Christie. And DeSantis is a tossup. I like a lot of what DeSantis has done, but what he's saying isn't as good, he's lost a lot of points with me recently, and he's at least as connected to a lot of swampy stuff.
Again, am I rooting for Vivek? Absolutely not. But he's far from the worst of the bunch, even given his absolutely snake-like behavior.
As I said in another comment, Trump is the only option. But acting like Vivek couldn't be a "serious" candidate, or that he's worse than a bunch of the others, just doesn't really work, at least for me.
This guy is a piece of work. How is he a serious candidate?
You could say the exact same for Trump.

I'd rather vote for a Dem than anyone else. At least they'll destroy the country faster so we don't have to sit and wait. But that's just me.
