An Indian-origin student, Aaryan Pathak, asked Republican Ohio Governor candidate some tough questions on GOP's 'hypocrisy' as Ramaswamy headlined a recent TPUSA event at Ohio State University. Introducing himself as an OSU student, Pathak asked Ramaswamy that a TPUSA journalist recently mocked a Texas Hindu temple but Ramaswamy, a Hindu GOP leader, was sitting at their event. He also told Ramaswamy that Charlie Kirk was against Ramaswamy on the H-1B visa program.
"How can I call myself a genuine Republican when there's an increasing amount of people who, because of my skin color, because of who I believe in, and the practice of my religious faith, see me as someone that's not a part of their tradition?" Pathak asked pointing out that on one hand, there is a rise in Asian-Americans in the GOP and on the other, there is an increasing hate against them. He asked whether it was a strategy for the GOP for a post-Trump era.
