Former President Donald Trump has reportedly ruled out choosing entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy as his running mate, according to a new report.
Trump reportedly told Ramaswamy about the decision before it was made public.
Bloomberg News reported on Monday, “Trump personally told Ramaswamy he won’t be his vice presidential pick, according to people briefed on the discussion, but is considering him for posts including Homeland Security secretary. Some Trump allies see Ramaswamy as ideal for the job because they say he excels at public speaking and, as an Indian-American son of an immigrant, could neutralize criticism of sweeping immigration restrictions.”
Ramaswamy has been a loyal supporter of Trump, even when the two were battling in the Republican primary.
