Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton show podcast.

Third hour Clay Ann Buck kicks off right now.

We've got our friend Vivake Ramas Swami with us now.

He is running for president of the United States. He's in the Republican primary right now.

The Vake always appreciate you making the time for us.

Good to be on man. How are you?

You know, pretty good, pretty good. I wanted to get your take first time. be on the you won't be a part of one of your competitors Ron desantis governor Florida will be

tomorrow this Gavin Newsom Ron desantis throwdown the blue state red state thunder dome if you will or you know the big the big battle underway what

do you make of what we're seeing here how do you think it's going to go?

I don't really care one another. I think it's a random charade between, you

know, I think it's interesting how Ron Desantis wasn't running for president for a year and a half while being a governor in much

the same way that Gavin Newsom is also now not running for president that's

what Gavin Newsom is doing so I think it's a nice little win for Gavin Newsom

to be able to pre- bolster what will almost surely be the seat that he

takes as the Democratic nominee after they get their puppet Joe Biden out of the way.

I do think that we're missing the point if we think that Joe

Biden is really the nominated. Republicans who have trained their fire on

Joe Biden are missing the point that he's not really in any meaningful sense the president or the nominee.

He is a puppet for the managerial class and so in some ways I think that this does a great favor

to providing a platform for Gavin Newsom to be able to advance

and get a head start on that presidential campaign but without actually having

declared it and you know Republican establishment that once again continue scoring a series of own goals it doesn't surprise me
