Fox News pundit Marc Thiessen has come out in full force against Vivek Ramaswamy's foreign policy proposals. Taking to social media, Thiessen called Ramaswamy's stances on the biggest foreign policy challenges facing the United States โcriminally stupidโ and โutterly disqualifying.โ (RELATED: BREAKING: Florida Republican Ends Presidential Campaign)
The Hill further reports:
Thiessen took to social media Monday in responseย to an articleย Ramaswamy wrote in The American Conservative centered onย how he would approachย the Russia-Ukraine war and U.S. relations with China.
Thiessen chose a quote from Ramaswamy's piece centered around the White House hopeful's vow to accept Russian control of the occupied territories and to block Ukraine's NATO candidacy โin exchange for Russia exiting its military alliance with China.โ Ramaswamy also said he would end sanctions to bring Russia back into the global market and, as a result, โelevate Russia as a strategic check on China's designs in East Asia.โ
In his post, Ramaswamy signaled he would significantly reduce the United States's international involvement, writing, โWe will be Uncle Sucker no more.โ Ramaswamy claimed the U.S. โsquanderedโ its opportunity after the end of the Cold War to remain he world's lone superpower, instead allowing Russia and China to work together to threaten the nation's top spot.
Ramaswamy drew criticism from his fellow Republicans when he was the only candidate to raise their hand on the Milwaukee debate stage when asked if they would not keep supporting Ukraine.
Responding to Ramaswamy's stance on Taiwan, Thiessen added, โAmateur hour. All China hears is: โWe can invade in 2028.' This is how world wars get started.โ (RELATED: Records Show Ramaswamy Is An โUnaffiliated' Voter)
Before joining Fox News, Thiessen served as a speechwriter for former President George W. Bush. He has written about foreign policy extensively, from criticizing the Obama administration's nuclear deal to praising former President Donald Trump's decision to assassinate Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps General Qasem Soleimani.

It sounds like Rama Swami fell off his flying carpet and landed on his head. I can’t imagine he beat Pence out in the after-debate polls. He’s a moron. It’s time for him to bow out.
Seen no stance on issues anyplace
kA Bushie,,,,irrelevant
If the GOPe and their flying monkey, lame-stream, skewed news media cheerleaders (i.e., Fox News) are having hemorrhoidial inflammations over Ramaswamy, I’m not so sure we can totally dismiss the guy yet.
