Vivek Ramaswamy outlined his bold vision for governance, invoking the legacy of America’s Founding Fathers.
NEW DELHI: In a provocative tweet on November 15, 2024, entrepreneur and presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy outlined his bold vision for governance, invoking the legacy of America’s Founding Fathers. “DOGE’s job is to create a government of a size & scope that our Founders would be proud of,” Ramaswamy tweeted, referring to a collaboration with tech magnate Elon Musk. The message was clear: Ramaswamy, alongside Musk, intends to fulfil what he describes as a mandate given by former President Donald Trump to reshape the U.S. government in a way that aligns with early American ideals.

The tweet has stirred a mix of curiosity and debate. Ramaswamy’s reference to “DOGE,” an apparent nod to Musk’s strong association with the popular cryptocurrency Dogecoin, suggests a vision that combines both economic innovation and political reform. While the exact meaning of “DOGE’s job” remains somewhat cryptic, many speculate it points to Musk’s influence in tech and finance, potentially impacting future governance models.

Ramaswamy’s tweet also reignited conversations surrounding his presidential campaign, which has consistently leaned into themes of decentralization, limited government, and a return to traditional values. The message aligns with Ramaswamy’s frequent critiques of the current political system, which he argues is too bloated and inefficient. By positioning himself as a leader who would honour the principles of the nation’s founders, Ramaswamy aims to resonate with voters seeking a change from the status quo.
Musk’s involvement has added further intrigue. Known for his unconventional approach to business and politics, Musk has been a polarizing figure in recent years. His support for Ramaswamy, and his commitment to fulfilling what Ramaswamy calls the “mandate” from Trump, adds a layer of complexity to the ongoing political discourse.

The pairing also highlights the growing influence of tech moguls in shaping political discourse, further blurring the lines between Silicon Valley and Washington, D.C.
