Donald Trump Open to Choosing Vivek Ramaswamy as Potential Vice President
The Gateway Pundit ^ | August 30, 2023 | Jim Hoft

In a recent interview with Glenn Beck, CEO of Blaze Media, former President Donald Trump spoke on a variety of subjects, including his views on potential running mates.

Trump expressed openness to the idea of selecting entrepreneur and political commentator Vivek Ramaswamy as a potential vice president, praising his intelligence and enthusiasm but cautioning about his sometimes controversial stances.

During the one-on-one discussion, Beck asked Trump about considering Ramaswamy as a possible VP.

“You said that you weren’t going, but you would be watching the debate for a vice president. Have you thought of Vice President Ramaswamy?” asked Beck.

“I think he’s great. Look, anybody that said I’m the best president in a generation… I have to like a guy like that,” said Trump.

“I can’t get upset with him but he’s a smart guy. He’s a young guy. He’s got a lot of talent. He’s a very very very intelligent person. He’s got good energy and he could be in some form of something,” Trump added.

However, the former President also offered a note of caution. “He’s starting to get out there a little bit. He’s a little bit getting a little bit controversial. I got to tell him, be a little bit careful, because some things you have to hold in just a little bit, right?” Trump advised, emphasizing that Ramaswamy’s controversial statements could be a potential issue.

Vivek Ramaswamy is facing growing scrutiny for his apparent inconsistencies on various political and social issues.

This is something we all must protest against. Ramaswampy is not to be trusted. Plus, as we all know, he isn't eligible for the Vice Presidency in the first place. Trump must be made aware of that. We need a true red blooded American with sole allegiance to the United States of America as VP. Ramaswampy wants to import his native Indians to America so they can take the jobs from true natural born Citizen Americans.

Trump has no positives to be seemingly making preference decisions now.

I hope he isn’t. Personally, I suspect he’s leaning toward Kristi Noem.

LOL, no we don’t all know that he is ineligible to be vice president. LOL. There is a thread with over 250 replies, and still going, on the subject of natural born citizenship.

Why not Rand Paul? He knows how the swamp works and I don’t remember him ever trashing Trump.

Ask Trump if he believes that four out of his five children are ineligible to ever be elected president.

Well, Trump could not do any worst than Mike Pence. But Swampy has already managed to piss off Israel. Not good.

I believe that Trump has been, and will be again, one of the greatest presidents in US history.

Notwithstanding that the only child of his that is Article II eligible is Barron. All of the rest are 14th amendment citizens like the subject of the 1890 SCOTUS Wong Kim Ark vs US decision.

Trump sometimes gets it wrong too, but he probably thinks that ship done sailed since the ascension of Obama and Harris, and if ya can’t beat ‘em....
