Who former President Donald Trump chooses as his running mate is one of the most anticipated announcements of the 2024 election season.
President Trump can't afford to have another vice president in the role who doesn't wholeheartedly embrace the America First movement, so it can't be just anyone. It's his entire platform. These policies are just as important to Mr. Trump as they are to his base winning the primaries.
Former Ambassador Nikki Haley is the last obstacle standing in the way of President Trump's nomination. lost By adding a “none of the above'' option to Nevada's ballots, no matter how many “independents'' or “Democrats'' come to vote in the Republican primary, the old Republican party will be excluded from voting upon arrival. Any doubts that he was dead disappeared.

The base wants Trump. They hope he returns to the executive branch, jails political prisoners, ships billions of dollars overseas as our economy collapses, shuts down pipelines, pushes DEI over security, and closes America's borders to terrorists. wants to wreak havoc on the entitled establishment, which has left it wide open to intrusion. .
For them, it's 2016 all over again, but even stronger. President Trump's choice of vice president needs to reflect this. Introducing Vivek Ramaswamy.
After his loss in Iowa, he withdrew from the race and immediately endorsed President Trump. He is a valuable asset in election campaigns. He knows how to connect with the base and talk to the base in a way that they want to hear. As far as optics are concerned, Ramaswei is handsome and his wife is beautiful. Their family image is healthy. His young children mean he's in on the game. What happens to America happens to them. That's all most politicians want to portray, but they can't because their image depends on the corrupt Washington DC echo chamber.
Still, President Trump needs a centrist voice, just as America got former Vice President Mike Pence. This is where Llama Way grows. During his campaign, when activists disrupted his events, Ramaswamy placated them and invited them to join him. Mr. Trump needs someone to help him sort out his mess without devaluing himself.
This is what makes Ramaswamy so appealing to Republican voters. Some people understand the America First movement and the Republican base the same way Ramaswamy does, but President Trump needs soldiers for the cause.
NEW: Vivek Ramaswamy spotted at Mar-a-Lago with Donald Trump as vice presidential rumors continue to heat up.
🔥🔥🔥
The development comes just a week after the New York Times suggested Vivek would be Trump's running mate.

While Mr. Trump is the general who moves the chess pieces and the face of the war that the base is trying to escalate, Mr. Ramaswamy will be the major who makes sure the soldiers follow orders. No one energizes the base like Trump, and Ramaswamy seems to understand that his role is to support rather than overshadow.
Other vice presidential candidates have shown they can harness the power of the America First movement to win in their states, but most of them need less support than Trump to be effective. They still lack the understanding that it is not okay. The movement cannot afford to accept new defectors.
During his presidential campaign, Ramaswamy took a different approach than all other candidates. He embraces everything that is good about President Trump for the American people. He talked about the issues surrounding the former president without demonizing him. It was essentially a master class in dealing with bases that are despised by the ruling class.
Many Republican candidates seemed confused about how to approach Republican voters regarding the political charges against Trump. But one thing is for sure: the last thing candidates should do to those forced to suffer the pain of the 2020 election and all its integrity issues is to pretend the election never happened. That is.
Ramaswami came out fighting. He has vowed not to appear on Colorado's ballot unless the state allows Trump to run. Not only has he promised to pardon Trump if he is found guilty of the charges against him, but he has also vowed to wage war against people and government agencies responsible for political persecution.

Mr. Ramaswamy's Republican candidates may be correct in their attacks that Mr. Ramaswamy's presidential campaign was essentially his audition for the open position of vice president.
But they had a joke written on them.
The biggest shock is that any of them actually ran. To those outside the DC consultant class, nothing was more obvious than the reality that Trump would always be the nominee. Ramaswamy or not, the important thing for President Trump's vice president to know on all fronts is that he's not there to run the country for Trump, he's an enforcer. is.
