I'm a bit sad Vivek Ramaswamy quit. Nikki Haley is an absolutely abominable human being based on everything I have heard her say, and I was glad to hear Vivek always ready to put her in her place. Not because of her chromosomes but because of her authoritarianism and cronyism. And yet, Trump is so hated by some segments of the population that there are people who see her as preferable. I don't like Trump, but the unhinged hate he generates in public discourse is completely disconnected from his actual policy positions and actions. It gets rednecks to see a New York millionaire with past democrat leanings as an underdog to be supported, too, which is a bit weird.

Vivek seemed like a quality guy and I think his decision to enter this race at all was strategic in order to secure some sort of cabinet position or set himself up for a run at some other office in the future. I don't think he really ever thought he had a chance. DeSantis I believe thought he genuinely had a chance since he was thrust into the spotlight over Covid.
I think once Haley loses in her own state that she will drop out as well.
