He’ll be Trump’s running mate in 24.

[Tijeras_Slim]

I’ve heard interviews with this guy and I like him.

[chrisinoc]

I saw part of his speech today at the NRA convention and was impressed. Wouldn’t mind him being part of the 2024 ticket.

[escapefromboston]

I’d never vote for an Indian but he has some decent ideas.

[Boogieman]

‘promises to pardon “defendants of politicized prosecutions.”’

If they are not convicted in federal court, then the President can’t pardon them. I’m not sure how he can be described as “brilliant” if he gets something as simple as that wrong.

[Reno89519]

Except that he is an Indian anchor baby and still can’t see anything that says he has national citizenship in India.

[crusty old prospector]

I voted for a Mormon. Will I vote for a Hindu? I think not. Except for Tulsi. She can surf.

[imabadboy99]

where does he stand on 3rd world immigration? Does he stand with Mike Lee for unlimited immigration from India?

The foolish writer list a bunch of ideas Vivek has and then suggests Desanctimonius lead a ticket with Vivek. Why exactly is no idea, traitorous Desanctimonius needed by Vivek? Hopefully Vivek will take MO Ron out of the 2nd slot and Nikki can push him out of the medals.

Has this Indian (dot, not feather) converted to true faith in Christ yet?

[Chgogal]

The guy has a brain and he uses it wisely. Best of all he knows the enemy.

[Political Junkie Too]

Use our military to annihilate Mexican drug cartels: defend against the CCP’s opium war

As I've posted before, I believe the fentanyl poisoning of our children is a part of the Chinese long-term warfare strategy.

Instead of fighting our troops in Taiwan and elsewhere in 10 years, they are killing off our future recruits today so they never get the chance to grow up and join the military.

They are strategically atrophying our military muscle by killing off the next generation of soldier. Then they will attack where ever they want.

I don’t trust him. Is he a US citizen born of US citizens?

I’ve see what Indian emigrants did to the US IT industry. I don’t want to see the same happen to our government.

[nathanbedford]

I am not anti-Trump; I am pro-win back the White House in 2024. I’m not alone in my belief that Donald Trump is not the guy to make that happen, and I could be wrong — but I doubt it.

The core question remains: can we have Trump's policy without Trump?; can we have Trump without Trump's baggage?

Too early to tell.

List per his website:

AMERICA FIRST 2.0
Vivek’s 25 Policy Commitments to Take America First further than Trump

01 REVIVE AMERICAN NATIONAL IDENTITY
• Use the military, including drones, to secure our southern border
• End affirmative action: repeal Lyndon Johnson’s executive order 11246
• Protect American children: ban addictive social media under age 16 & gender confusion “care” for minors
• Make political expression a civil right & end unlawful DEI indoctrination
• Withhold federal funding for cities that refuse to protect Americans from violent crime

02 UNLEASH THE AMERICAN ECONOMY: ACHIEVE >5% GDP GROWTH
• Drill, frack & burn coal: abandon the climate cult & unshackle nuclear energy
• Put Americans back to work: dismantle Lyndon Johnson’s failed “Great Society”
• Incentivize trade schools over hollow college degrees (sorry, gender studies majors)
• Launch deregulatory “Reagan 2.0” revolution: cut >75% headcount amongst U.S. regulators
• Limit the U.S. Fed’s scope: stabilize the dollar & nothing more

03 DECLARE INDEPENDENCE FROM COMMUNIST CHINA
• Hold the CCP accountable for Covid-19: use all financial levers
• Achieve semiconductor independence: secure our modern way of life
• Stop CCP affiliates from buying American land
• Use our military to annihilate Mexican drug cartels: defend against the CCP’s opium war
• Ban U.S. businesses from expanding in China until the CCP stops cheating

04 DISMANTLE MANAGERIAL BUREAUCRACY
• Shut down toxic government agencies: Dept of Education, FBI, IRS, and more (and rebuild from scratch when required)
• End civil service protections for bureaucrats: 8-year term limits instead
• Eliminate federal employee unions: repeal JFK’s executive order 10988
• Move >75% of federal employees out of Washington D.C. & end pro-lazy “remote work” option
• Cut wasteful expenditures: White House, not individual agencies, will submit budget requests to Congress

05 END WEAPONIZATION OF GOVERNMENT & FINANCIAL MARKETS
• Pardon defendants of politicized prosecutions: Trump, Mackey, and peaceful Jan 6 protesters
• Hold Congress accountable for “hush money” fund: taxpayers should not subsidize sexual misconduct
• Publish the Jeffrey Epstein client list: government should not use police power to shield select elites
• Rescind Biden’s ESG rule for retirement funds: get politics out of corporate America and capital markets
• Oppose CBDCs: fight all plans for digital currency, a dangerous scheme for government control over our bank accounts

I read something a while back about the guy that gave me pause. The article stated he was selected to join Schwab’s young global leadership club. I don’t know the details or whether the report was accurate. What I see now is that he is very articulate, impressively smart, and appears to have good conservative instincts.

[maddog55]

Not liking the America First 2.0.... sounds to much like my pillow 2.0 that I’m sick of hearing.

[Maris Crane]

Vivek sounds great, but, ya know, it might just be wise of him to run for, oh, say congress before President.

He lessens his credibility by assuming so much power in one big jump. Just my own thoughts.
