Meet The 3 Indian-Americans Looking To Upstage Trump in US Presidential Race

Washington: 

While Donald Trump seems to be the favourite to face off against US President Joe Biden in 2024, some India-American leaders are looking to upstage Trump to “make America great again”.

Vivek Ramaswamy, Nikki Haley, and Hirsh Vardhan Singh will contest against former US president Donald Trump, who is leading in the race for the Republican Party’s nomination for 2024 despite the legal challenges he is facing.

Republicans will meet in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, from July 15-18, 2024, for their national convention to formally select their party’s next presidential nominee.

Casting herself as a perennially underestimated underdog who has never lost an election, the 51-year-old daughter of Indian immigrants has spoken proudly of her time in the Trump administration.

But she has criticised her former boss’s post-election crusade to relitigate debunked claims of voter fraud that he falsely alleges cost him the 2020 election.

Even though she features low on most polls, she has been consistently raking in donations. The super PAC supporting Haley, Stand For America Fund Inc., raised $18.7 million from April through June, bringing her overall total to $26 million. Haley also got support from some deep-pocketed GOP donors, including billionaires Kenneth Langone, Alice Walton and Kenneth Fisher, who all donated $6,600.
