When a ‘LGBTQ+’ reporter confronted Vivek Ramaswamy, demanding to know his views on the “LGBTQ+ community,” the Republican presidential candidate provided a stark reality check.

Ramaswamy told the person that he doesn’t “think it’s one community,” explaining that as far as he can tell “Trans is fundamentally in tension with gay, if you ask me.”

The person then attempted to get Ramaswamy to say something negative about same sex couples, to which he responded that he only has a “negative view of the tyranny of the minority.”

A “pan-sexual” LGBTQIA+ activist approached me at the Iowa State Fair with a question. I answered directly: in the name of protecting against tyranny of the majority, we’ve created a new tyranny of the minority. That’s just the TRUTH.

“I don’t think that somebody who is religious should be forced to officiate a wedding that they disagree with,” he stated, adding “I don’t think somebody who is a woman who has worked really hard for her achievements should compete against a biological man in a swim competition.”

Ramaswamy continued, “I don’t think somebody who is a woman, that respects her bodily autonomy and dignity should be forced to change clothes in a locker room with a man.”

“That is not freedom, that’s oppression,” he urged.

Ramaswamy also asserted that while adults can do as they please “do not foist that ideology onto children before children are in a position to make decisions for themselves.”

The candidate said many Americans are tired of being subjected to this “new culture of oppression.”

“Part of what makes our country great is that you and I can be civil and have this conversation and that we live in a country that gives each of us a right to speak to a presidential candidate and back,” Ramaswamy told the person.

He followed up during an interview on Fox News:

Vivek Ramaswamy: "If gender dysphoria is such a condition of suffering, then why on earth are we going out of our way to create even more of it by spreading this ideology through young kids in our schools?"

Vivek is one sharp cookie, and his wife is also.

I still want Trump to have his second term, but Vivek would be my 2nd choice.

Yes, he's very sharp. He handled this person so well she seemed happy when he was done stating his position. I've seen numerous interviews of him and at 38, he is well beyond his years in mental maturity. His position is conservative and there is little I don't like. Supposedly he was pro-vaxx, but that may be because of his normal profession of being involved the biotech industry. He should be questioned in more detail on that, but he otherwise looks very good.

I don't mind so much someone being pro-vaxx so long as they are not pro vaxx mandate.

It'd be a tough choice between him and RFK if it came down to it.

Trump is a Zionist. And he allowed that mRNA injection crap.

RFK

RFK, Jr. wants to rebuild the middle class. How will he do that when most of the good paying jobs have been shipped to Mexico or China?

At least Trump saved a few hundred Carrier Air Conditioner jobs from going to Mexico by giving them tax breaks.

Where I live they wanted to turn an old grocery store into a Marijuana growing outfit. They had the state permits, but the city refused them a business license because of the churches and schools.

We are in the Bible Belt in SW Missouri.

But you know that anything produced there would have been shipped by armored truck.

Plus, it would have been a big boost for the local economy. ;)

I can recall the Nuns teaching sex education on overhead projectors in grade school in Chicago. All the kids were giggling. LOL

6th Grade male health class, the gym teacher said "peanuts" instead of "penis", I wasn't mature enough not to giggle a bit. Hated crowds ever since.
