Ramaswamy fires back at Mexican president in border spat:
'New daddy in town'
By Joseph A. Wulfsohn Fox News

Direct speech:

In a statement first made to Fox News Digital, Ramaswamy knocked Obrador —


suggesting the drug cartels are his "sugar daddy" and insisting that things will
change if the GOP hopeful makes it to the White House.

"It’s not just illegal migrants, human trafficking, and fentanyl pouring through our
Swiss cheese, open border anymore," Ramaswamy said. "Now, we have armed
cartel gunmen directly invading our homeland."

"The U.S. military has one job: to protect American citizens on our own soil. The
cartels may be AMLO’s sugar daddy now, but soon there will be a new daddy in
town. As President, I will call Mexico's president in January 2025 to deliver a clear
message that we will support you in decimating the cartels. Military force is both
legally and morally justified. Time to end the crisis," he added.

At Wednesday's second GOP debate, Ramaswamy reiterated his tough border


stance, suggesting the drug cartels are guilty of "bioterrorism" for the fentanyl
deaths that occur in the U.S.

"We have to seal that southern border. Building the wall is not enough. They're
building cartel-financed tunnels," Ramaswamy said. "We have to use our own
military to seal the Swiss cheese of a southern border."

In a statement first made to Fox News Digital, Ramaswamy knocked Obrador,


suggesting that the drug cartels were his "sugar daddy" and insisting that things
would change if the GOP hopeful made it to the White House. He stated that it was
no longer just about illegal migrants, human trafficking, and fentanyl pouring
through their open border. Ramaswamy claimed that armed cartel gunmen were
directly invading their homeland.

According to him, the U.S. military had one job: to protect American citizens on
their own soil. He believed that the cartels may be AMLO's sugar daddy at present,
but soon there would be a new daddy in town. As the President, Ramaswamy
promised to call Mexico's president in January 2025 to deliver a clear message -
they would support Mexico in decimating the cartels. He believed that military
force was both legally and morally justified, and it was time to end the crisis.

During Wednesday's second GOP debate, Ramaswamy reiterated his tough border
stance. He suggested that the drug cartels were guilty of "bioterrorism" for the
fentanyl deaths occurring in the U.S. He emphasized the need to seal the southern
border, stating that building the wall was not enough as the cartels were building
cartel-financed tunnels. Ramaswamy argued that their own military had to be used
to seal the Swiss cheese of a southern border.
