Ramaswamy says he talked to Trump about ‘substantial role’ in possible administration
The Hill ^ | 8.21.2024 | Lauren Irwin

Posted on 08/21/2024 5:20:11 PM PDT by libh8er

Former Republican presidential candidate and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy said he has spoken to former President Trump about a “substantial role” in his possible administration.

Ramaswamy joined OutKick’s “Maintaining with Tyrus” for an interview to discuss his political future, more than six months after he suspended his presidential bid and endorsed Trump.

He has been floated as a possible gubernatorial candidate in his home state of Ohio, and he says he’s been considered as a replacement for Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance (Ohio) in the Senate, should Trump and Vance win the White House.

“Governor is something that people are pushing me for a lot in Ohio, and how could I not consider it?” Ramaswamy said. “But also, there’s JD Vance, a Senate seat that’s now open in my home state in Ohio, and I think that’s something that a lot of people have really pushed me to consider.”

“And President Trump and I have had great conversations about doing something substantial, not small, but maybe a couple roles that could be really big roles in the Cabinet of the new administration,” he continued.

Ramaswamy said there are pros and cons to each job, and he is weighing his options.

No matter what he chooses, “it’ll be something that has high impact,” he said in the interview which is set to air Sunday.

Make Vivek head of the EPA....he’d have so many deregulations, clean air and clean water.

The Global Schwarming would stop dead.

Conservatives have every place in the administration of this country - there aren't nearly enough. Your bigotry, on the other hand...

I would offer Vivek Ramaswamy an ambassadorship to a country that hates Hindus, like Pakistan or China. I doubt he would take the job though.

He has an enormous ego to ever think an anchor baby could be POTUS (not natural born like the other Hindu Indian Nimarata Haley).

Cognitive dissonance like that is what made the US what it is now.

The aforementioned groups have no ultimate respect for Judeo-Christian principles. A “conservative” muslim is a jihadi.

There are 15 cabinet positions. You all act like conservative, qualified MAGA candidates grow on trees. There’s only like 4-5 that would be considered “qualified” for those types of positions. And that’s being generous. If you disagree, name 15 and be prepared to be attacked by the FR horde.

Excerpt:

America’s founding fathers consciously avoided creating a “Christian nation.” Thomas Jefferson, author of the declaration of Independence, authored in 1786 the “Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom,” which set strong precedent for the standing of religion in the new country. He wrote that during a debate to adopt the bill, “An amendment [which proposed to insert] the words, ‘Jesus Christ, the holy author of our religion,’ [was rejected] by a great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and the Mohammedan, the Hindoo and the infidel [any non-Christian] of every denomination.”
