Meet Indian-American Randeep Dhillon who wants to 'Make Affordable California Again' but MAGA does not like his English

Dr Randeep S Dhillon is one of the lesser-known Republican candidates for the California Governor election primary who wants to make the state affordable. As he released his campaign videos ahead of the primary in June, he got trolled for his English and MAGA on social media distanced themselves from the Republican because of his Indian origin. "Meet Randeep Dhillon, who is running in California’s gubernatorial race. His most recent campaign ad shows him, barely speaking English, while claiming he somehow wants to fix literacy in CA. No this is not satire. Yes, this is very real," one social media post said, sharing Dhillon's recent video where he spoke about literacy.

Dhillon said if he wins, he will recognize children who maintain GPA level 3.87, 3.93, will support the first car purchase after they graduate from school, and will credit $505. There will be a waiver on registration fee for the first year, Dhillon said, unveiling his MACA plan.
