Donald Trump is surely watching Ramaswamy’s rise closely.
Imagine a 2024 vice presidential debate where the GOP candidate is a brown-skinned man, and he is telling a black woman, Vice President Kamala Harris, that Democrats take minority voters for granted.
Ramaswamy is preparing for that fight by taking his racial rhetoric to disturbing heights. “I’m sure the boogeyman ‘white supremacists’ exist somewhere in America – I have just never met him,” Ramaswamy said recently on CNN. “Never seen one…”
Say what? Keep in mind, Ramaswamy spoke a year after a white racist went into a Buffalo grocery and killed 10 people with automatic gun inscribed with the n-word.
He spoke days before another white racist went into a Jacksonville store and killed three black people with a rifle marked with swastikas. Did Ramaswamy miss the white supremacists marching through Charlottesville in 2017? Has he forgotten Dylan Roof’s racist murder of nine Black Charleston churchgoers in 2015?
Ramaswamy’s reckless use of racial and tribal appeals to win over Republican voters was also on display at an early August event in Iowa. He said he wants to cancel the Juneteenth holiday, which celebrates the day when slaves in Texas first heard they had been freed by the Emancipation Proclamation. He called it a “useless” holiday.
Two months earlier, Ramaswamy had posted a social media video praising Juneteenth as a celebration of “how far we’ve come.” He added that “as a first-generation American myself, you better believe I’m proud of it.”

We had better pay close attention to Vivek. He keeps reinventing himself
But he sure talks pretty
People seem mesmerized by him.
vice presidential debate where the GOP candidate is a brown-skinned man .... who will signify to many black voters as the guy that owns the local convenience store or hotel.
he is telling a black woman ..... she’s not black/African-American
There’s a reason they’re trying to shove this clown down everyone’s throat. And it ain’t good.
Only Williams can take 2 and 2 and somehow come up with five.
He’s using Vivek’s words that he’s never met a murderous white racist and somehow tries to relate that to a few random acts.
He’s a total fraud.

I have to agree with Vivek. I was born and raised in India, arrived in US at age 20 to work on masters in engineering, and had phenomenal success in American corporations during my entire working career. After retiring at age 57 I was welcomed at 2 different private country clubs as a member and it was the best 15 years of my life there. The golf was fantastic, members were fantastic, and amenities were fantastic. America is by far the best country in the world to start from scratch and build wealth with hard work.
The Hill may as well be Media Matters.
Juan Williams is ignorant trash. I’m liking Vivek more all the time because he is saying all the right things most others are afraid to say. He can say things like this which Trump can’t because he himself is a “person of color”. Now whether Ramaswamy is sincere in his beliefs or just saying these things to attract the MAGA crowd remains to be seen.
“…somehow tries to relate that to a few random acts.”
All the while conveniently ignoring the MASSIVE black racism all over the land.
LOL
Are those the only contributions he made?
That is truly a weak stupid attempt.
Look like the Criminal Left (”the Hill” & friends) is also watching this guy closely. That means at some point his life may be in jeopardy.
I stopped at “Juan Williams”.
“People seem mesmerized by him.”
That’s because he’s unusually bright for a politician and has the balls to say certain things that many of us agree with but most pols wouldn’t touch. He’s widening the Overton window by bring these ideas to the forefront of acceptable discourse similar to what people like Trump & Tucker do when they address various topics.
He only inflames morons like Juan Williams.
Certainly not. Obviously, you haven’t been paying attention

Pratham Boston Gala 2018: Vivek Ramaswamy

He gave quite a nice speech.
Republican except for Dena Minning (D):

“The Hill may as well be Media Matters.”
This white hot anger piece begins with the name “Donald Trump’and loads the liberal bromides from there. It is deranged madness.
Vivek is part of the election show, part of convincing people that elections still matter and are legitimate. But this hate filled nonsense appeals only to the far left.
