Vivek Ramaswamy is gaining traction in the US presidential race for his “anti-woke” Rhetoric.
The 38-year-old is the youngest major Republican candidate in history
Ramaswamy is a political novice. He considered running for senator in his native Ohio in 2022 but decided against it.
His “anti-woke” agenda focuses on recapturing the American dream from a country “lost” to “reverse racism”, “climate”, “Covidism”, and “gender ideology”.
Although he is an avid Trump supporter, Ramaswamy has set about presenting himself as his successor.
He has stated that he would deploy the American army to defend the southern border with Mexico, abolish the FBI and beef up the US marshalls service so they could focus on child trafficking.
He has also come out in favour of a ceasefire with Russia, allowing them to keep parts of the Ukraine they currently hold.
Well, he ticks all the boxes for the American mainstream right
-Anti woke
-Build the wall
-Minority status, so they don’t get called racist
-Not 70+ yrs old

And like Tulsi Gabbard four years ago will appeal to the more centrist opposition party.
So why are the alarm bells ringing
Perhaps because we have seen this before without noticing,
In 2016, Emmanuel Macron “came out of nowhere” to win the French presidency 2017. He, like Mr Ramaswamy, worked in the finance sector. Not in your local branch of the TSB mind, Macron worked with Rothschilds & co whilst Ramaswamy worked in hedge funds, mainly within biotech!
Then we have our current PM, Rishi Sunak, another man you hadn’t heard of before 2019 when he found himself as chancellor of the exchequer, the second to the prime minister.
