Why do I need to recap things that are months old for you? Either you are an informed voter or you are a sheep.

Because Ramaswamy has said and done MANY things relating to immigration.
Which one were you referring to, and why did you oppose it?

Navy contractor sentenced for bribery after U.S. drops $50M fraud claim

You folks would be shocked over what the Navy pays in husbanding fees while in ports overseas. For example, just the rental of a brow (a stepped metal gangway used to access the ship from a pier) was $1000 or more per day. That was 20 years ago. I can’t imagine what it costs today. Factor in the costs of ship services (water, sewage, garbage disposal…) or boat launch services when anchored out, can run over $100k per port visit. It’s a racket.

All the fees are crazy to sail ships. Some ports/areas you have to pay a local captain, crew, etc to dock or sail through the waters. Some of them in the canals can be valid so you don't have an idiot shutting it down but still a racket.

Harbor pilots have to board and guide the ship into port from the bridge while still several miles out. Even warships must abide by this rule.
Even Fetterstein is getting his trolling in lolol

Yikes.. This is not good at all..

"It was a huge disaster. In order to get enough people to buy, the rate had to dramatically increase. Even then, then primary dealers had to buy 25% of the debt. The primary dealer are the buyers of last resort who have to buy.

China, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Russia ... none of them are buying our debt. In fact, most are selling what they already have."

With few buying, the US government is borrowing more than ever. $1.5 trillion in the past 4 months and they announced another $1.5 trillion in the next 6 months. The US government will have to offer higher and higher rates to attracted lenders."

Because Ramaswamy has said and done MANY things relating to immigration.
Which one were you referring to, and why did you oppose it?

What has a private citizen done about immigration?

Yeah.  He's a CEO.  Has he used or abused our legal immigration system? Did he hire illegals?  But mostly said.  What did he say?

Since you won't look it up, look at what he did at his company and what he has said about importing immigrants.

Then look at all his previous tweets. He was a liberal and then all of a sudden starts running for president and switches to playing a conservative. The guy is basically Obama as a republican. Shows up out of no where and everyone giving him a pass on his history and just looking at what he is saying now, not at what he has done.

You could post his tweets here.

I think you have to show the tweets.  Show the links.
A CEO who wants to be able to recruit the smartest workers on the planet and bring them over is different from a politician who wants open borders or a politician who wants amnesty for previous illegal immigrants.  
Explain why you think it's bad and explain what you think is good.
Do you think it's bad to recruit an academic superstar from India to take an entry level job at your company?
Do you think we should let in more legal immigrants, or less? How would you decide which ones can come and which can't?
So far you've only used the word "conservative" for what is good and "liberal" for what is bad.  But there are more than two possible immigration policies.
Greta Thunberg knows which side her bread is buttered on.

Why should p_rushing have to show anything?  You're the one who claimed Ramaswamy has "done many things relating to immigration".  The burden of proof is on you.  Provide your supporting evidence, or admit you were talking out of your posterior.
