Former GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy spoke exclusively with Fox News Digital following an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, praising his resilience and energy in the face of danger. Ramaswamy also commended Trump’s choice of Sen. JD Vance as his running mate, calling him an “awesome VP” and highlighting his American Dream story.
Ramaswamy and Vance, who were classmates at Yale Law School, share a connection through their upbringing in southwest Ohio. Vance’s journey from a working-class family to the Marine Corps and eventually to the Senate resonates with many Americans, making him an inspiring choice for vice president.
The failed assassination attempt on Trump at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania shocked the nation, but Ramaswamy noted that Trump’s response was admirable and showed his dedication to the American people. Despite the tragic loss of a spectator in the attack, Ramaswamy believes that the incident serves as a reminder of the importance of unity in the country.
Looking ahead to the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Ramaswamy expressed hope for honest and heartfelt speeches that will help heal the divisions in the nation. He sees the event as an opportunity to move past the toxicity of recent years and start a new chapter of unity and progress.
As the country prepares for the upcoming election, Ramaswamy’s insights into Trump’s resilience, Vance’s inspiring story, and the need for unity offer a glimpse into the future of American politics.
