President Trump is going to be the nominee for the 2024 GOP Presidential primary.
No force on earth can stop this, it is an inevitability—just as the sun rises in the East, just as death will come to us all, President Trump will be the frontman for the GOP this upcoming election season. …
Despite this inevitability, President Trump has yet to choose a running mate, but that hasn’t stopped him from floating potential picks and commenting. …
My personal pick for Trump’s VP is RFK Jr. I think a Trump/Kennedy ticket would break the internet and fix the country, but RFK has already stated that he has no interest in pursuing this. …
There is another, potential candidate who could actually make a decent Vice President. …Vivek Ramaswamy.
President Trump recently called into Glenn Beck’s show and told the famed anchor:
“I can’t get upset with him [Vivek] 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.”
“He’s starting to get out there a little bit. He’s a little bit controversial. I can tell him be a little bit careful some things you have to hold in just a little bit… he’s got a lot of good energy I will tell you and he’s been very nice to me.”
NEW: Donald Trump says he *is* open to picking Vivek Ramaswamy as his vice presidential pick and likes what he sees, but suggests that Vivek is a little controversial.
A Trump/Vivek ticket would be wild.

I like a lot of what Vivek has to say. …That being said, there are a lot of other things I wish he would come off of—like the failed drug war (the drugs won) or instigating war with China. …
Needless to say, I am not fully sold on Vivek Ramawany. I like a lot of what he says, yet something about him screams neocon to me.
Hopefully, I am wrong and will be pleasantly surprised by Ramaswamy, but I am not holding my breath!
During the GOP Presidential debates Vivek referred to the 45th President of the United States as “The best President of the 21st century.”

Axios had this to report on Ramaswamy:
Over the course of six months, Ramaswamy went from a largely unknown long shot candidate polling at 1% to a serious upstart receiving incoming attacks from GOP contenders including former Vice President Pence, former U.N. ambassador Nikki Haley and former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
It isn’t hard to see why Trump and others like Ramaswamy, just take a look at this recent interaction between him and MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell.
Trump is my only choice but give credit if it's due. Rumors are Ramaswamy is being considered for Trump's V.P. Love that Vivek doesn't let these talking heads talk over him!

Others weren’t so sure about Vivek. The Recall Katie Hobbs X social media account, a popular MAGA aligned page, had this to say about Vivek:
“Vivek Smivek is Obama 2.0. Vivek was a Soros scholar funded by blood money. Vivek last year called Trump a loser, said Pence did the right thing on J6. Now he says Trump is the greatest President of the 21st century.”

The Hill added:
He has said he would cede parts of Ukraine to Russia to end the war in Ukraine; he has suggested the U.S. should cut off support to Israel; and he has faced backlash for incendiary remarks about Rep. Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.), comparing the Black lawmaker to “modern grand wizards” of the Ku Klux Klan.
