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.

Pence trashed Trump regarding Access Hollywood and ran to Paul Ryan to see about taking the nomination away and yet he got the VP nod.
I don’t remember what Rand Paul said about it.
“OH HELL NO!”
By that even his own son Don Jr is not eligible since Ivana wasn’t a US citizen when Don was born.
Byron Donalds would be my choice.
I don’t think that act was ever voted on and signed into law. Even if it were passed some people would probably say it would that a constitutional amendment to change the meaning of natural born to just native born.
My own opinion is that the definition of natural-born (born of two citizen parents) carries no weight anymore. The courts are not going to hold anyone to that standard. Best to ignore it and get on with deciding on candidates on their merits.
Vivek already said he would not want such a position, at least not with Trump.
only if Ivana and Melania had not been naturalized when the kids were born. I was not, so my sons aren’t eligible even though their mother was a NBC
what about Tiffany? Marla Maples was a citizen
Pence had the VP Candidacy from the convention. The Access Hollywood thing came out after he was already nominated for VP. So its not as if he got the VP nod in spite of his actions when the Access Hollywood thing happened.
It helped that Pence already had the Vice Presidential nomination when Access Hollywood came our. Short of shooting him, there wasnt much Trump could do to get rid of him.
I will take Kari Lake for a VP nominee.
Same retards who think Gina Haspel was shot in Frankfurt by SpecOps.
Same who think frogmen waited in the ocean for a plane crash to inject Loretta Fuddy with untraceable poison.
They are few in number, but will posts hundreds of replies.
Interesting idea. Ramaswamy most assuredly understands the business world.
As does Trump.
They are on a mission. Paul and Daisy Soros were NOT George Soros.

There’s also some bigotry going on here.
