Vivek Ramaswamy, former Republican presidential candidate and co-founder of Strive Asset Management, recently shared his perspective on the issue of illegal mass migration and border security. Ramaswamy emphasized the need for strong enforcement of existing laws to address the current crisis at the border.
He highlighted the historical context of immigration in the United States, pointing out that while past waves of immigrants went through a structured process, the recent influx of 7.2 million individuals crossing the border under the Biden administration has raised concerns.
Ramaswamy criticized the Biden administration for failing to enforce laws such as the 'Remain in Mexico' policy, which he believes has contributed to the current situation. He commended President Trump's commitment to using existing legal authority to secure the border and enforce immigration laws.
Addressing the issue of illegal immigration, Ramaswamy underscored the importance of upholding the rule of law and ensuring that those who enter the country do so through legal channels. He expressed concern that rewarding illegal entry undermines the efforts of legal immigrants who have followed the proper procedures.
Ramaswamy also touched on the need for a rational immigration system that allows for lawful entry while maintaining strict consequences for illegal immigration. He emphasized the significance of national identity and the rule of law in shaping American values.
In conclusion, Ramaswamy called for unity in upholding the rule of law, regardless of political affiliations or backgrounds. He rejected the notion that enforcing immigration laws is inhumane, arguing that it is necessary to address the current challenges at the border and preserve the integrity of the legal immigration process.
