Ramaswamy Praises Trump for Opposing Central Bank Digital Dollar
- Former GOP candidate says he talked to Trump about currency
- Ramaswamy says digital dollar would be a ‘threat to liberty’
Vivek Ramaswamy praised Donald Trump for joining him in opposing a central bank-issued digital dollar, after the Ohio businessman exited the race for the Republican nomination and endorsed the former president.
“A central bank digital currency, I believe, is a threat to liberty in this country,” Ramaswamy said in an interview with Bloomberg Television in Manchester, New Hampshire on Tuesday. “It creates a mechanism for government to be able to wipe out your bank account or wipe out your dollars if you do or say something the government disapproves of.”
