The Donald says he’s open to it.
According to a report from Epoch Times, former President and 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump says there’s a possibility of a Trump-Ramaswamy ticket in 2024.
Conservative talk show host Glenn Beck asked about Ramaswamy’s chances for Veep.
“I think he’s great,” Trump told Beck. “Look, anybody that’s said I’m the best president in a generation … and he said it a couple of times … I have to like a guy like that.”
From Epoch Times:
During the interview, President Trump openly discussed his thoughts on the presidential candidacy of Mr. Ramaswamy, indicating his receptiveness to a youthful and comparatively unestablished candidate who could bring a fresh perspective to Washington.
President Trump, considered the frontrunner for the GOP nomination, described Mr. Ramaswamy as “smart,” “young,” and “got a lot of talent.”
When asked about the possibility of a “Vice President Ramaswamy,” President Trump respondedaffirmatively, saying, “He’s a very, very, very intelligent person. He’s got good energy, and he could be some form of something. I tell you, I think he’d be very good. I think he’s very good. I think he’s really distinguished himself.”
“He’s starting to get out there a little bit. He’s getting a little bit controversial. I got to tell him to be a little bit careful. Some things you have to hold in just a little bit, right?” President Trump said. “But he’s got a lot of good energy.”
“Ramaswamy announced his run for president near the end of February and was polling between 1% and 5%. Recent polls conducted by Rasmussen Reports and McLaughlin & Associates put Ramaswamy as high as 24%, with some polls putting him with a lead over DeSantis,” Yahoo News reports.
