Vivek Ramaswamy: Democrats Push ‘Joy’ While Ignoring Economic Realities
In a recent segment on “The Ingraham Angle,” Laura Ingraham welcomed former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy to discuss a significant Supreme Court ruling and broader political issues. The Supreme Court had just issued a 5-4 decision allowing Arizona to enforce proof of citizenship for voters, which Vivek described as a “good development,” especially in battleground states like Arizona. He emphasized that the controversy surrounding this ruling reveals the deep ideological divide in the country, pointing out that such a straightforward decision should not be contentious. “Citizens should vote, and non-citizens shouldn’t. It’s that clear,” Vivek stated, underlining his belief in the fundamental principle of voter integrity.

The conversation then shifted to the contrasting campaign strategies of Democrats and Republicans, with Laura highlighting the “joy” theme being pushed by Vice President Kamala Harris. Vivek critiqued this approach, noting that it focuses on “style over substance” and is an attempt to divert attention from policy discussions. He mentioned that Harris has distanced herself from discussing policies after experiencing backlash, which he believes could be a deliberate strategy to avoid scrutiny. “Can she get through this election naturally for 80 more days without touching policy? I think it’s possible,” Vivek speculated, emphasizing the need for Republicans to keep pressing on substantive issues.
Vivek further explained the potential economic dangers of policies like the tax on unrealized capital gains that Harris and Biden have supported. He warned that such a tax would trigger a market crash by forcing asset sales to pay the tax, leading to a downward spiral in asset prices. “That’s what you call forced selling. That is a formula for a second Great Depression,” he cautioned. This stark warning was a reminder of the real-world implications of policy decisions that may seem abstract but could have devastating consequences for the economy.

The discussion also touched on Vivek’s encounter with protesters outside the DNC, where he experienced firsthand the contradictions within the leftist movements. Despite being critical of capitalism, the protesters were charging $5 for Communist literature and accepting Venmo, a sign of their own reliance on the capitalist system they oppose. Vivek’s takeaway was clear: the Republican Party, as the party of free speech and open debate, must lead not just their party but the nation as a whole. “We’re not in this to just lead one party. We’re in this to lead the nation,” he asserted, underscoring the broader vision he believes the GOP should embrace.
