2024 GOP presidential hopefuls Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy agree on one thing: we need to focus less on Ukraine and more on the southern border.
“I think that this is disastrous, that we are protecting against an invasion across somebody else’s border when we should use those same military resources to prevent across the invasion of our own southern border here in the United States of America,” Ramaswamy said.
“I’m not going to send troops to Ukraine, but I am going to send them to our southern border where these drug pushers are bringing fentanyl across the border. That’s going to be the last thing they do. We’re going to use force and we’re going to leave them stone-cold dead,” DeSantis said.
Watch Ramaswamy’s response below:
I reject the consensus that “winning” in Ukraine is a vital U.S. interest. Nearly the entire GOP field rails against Biden, but cut through the grandstanding & it turns out they’re solidly with him on the most important foreign policy issue of our time. America First 2.0 pic.twitter.com/3iTy3pyaM5
