Previous GOP presidential candidate and recent Ohio presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy appeared on” Jesse Watters Primetime” and drew a burning historical comparison between George Wallace and California Governor Gavin Newsom, who was renowned for segregation, and he didn’t mince words. Ramaswamy acknowledged his personal passion for Newsom, but he warned that the Democrat’s disobedience of federal immigration rules is perilously suggestive of a harrowing period in American history.

” I’m acquainted with Gavin Newsom. I actually do like him as a people, Ramaswamy said. The reality is that he won’t like what I have to say about him because of how his behaviour is starting to resemble that of another Democrat governor from the US, George Wallace, who was the governor of Alabama, who reportedly fought against federal desegregation.
That is well known; Wallace made headlines in 1963 by actually standing in front of a school door to deter black students. President John F. Kennedy was the one who had to intervene and nationalize the Alabama National Guard in an effort to impose segregation.
In 2025, President Donald Trump is now at odds with Gavin Newsom, who has publicly resisted federal immigration protection and has mandated that state officials protect illegal aliens in sanctuary cities. The similarities are obvious to Ramaswamy.
According to him, President John F. Kennedy was forced to send the Alabama National Guard in 1963. ” Only like President Trump is doing today,” he said.
Ramaswamy was still in the process of drawing ranges between the past and the present. ” George Wallace fought integration. Gavin Newsom is opposed to arrests. Isolated towns were what George Wallace wanted. Sanctuary towns are what Gary Newsom wants. George Wallace obstructed the manner in the school door. ICE trucks are being blocked by Gavin Newsom.

This is social theater, Ramaswamy claims, not only irresponsible governance. He claimed that Newsom planned these altercations with national authorities to promote his brand.
For our Guests:   Newsom Is Running for President, Not His State.
According to Ramaswamy,” It’s the same Democrat government playbook.” You “do it in front of the cams,” the feds say, “you rally the radical, and most importantly, you do it because what they were both doing is actually carving out their Democratic presidential ambitions.”
However, Ramaswamy had a somber forecast if Newsom believes this performance will result in him being elected president.
He told number Jesse Watters,” Jesse, you may mark my words on this one.” The fate of Gavin Newsom’s political ambitions will lie in the dustbins of background, where it belongs, just like George Wallace’s did.
That is” just the truth,” Ramaswamy came to the conclusion.
There’s another Democrat Governor from U.S. record that he’s starting to resemble, George Wallace, the government of Alabama, who reportedly opposed the U.S. administration’s efforts to desegregate.

It’s a brutal assessment, but it also highlights growing anger with Democrat governors who defy the law in favor of progressive grandstanding. And as Ramaswamy pointed out, it’s unlikely that history will treat those who favor political feats over the Constitution.
