Vivek Ramaswamy withdraws, backs Trump
Pharmaceutical Executive Drops Out of Presidential Race, Endorses Trump
Pharmaceutical executive Vivek Ramaswamy made a surprising announcement on Monday night, withdrawing from the Republican Party presidential primary race. Despite polling in the low single digits, Ramaswamy captivated his audience in Iowa as he revealed his decision and endorsed former President Donald Trump.
Addressing his supporters, Ramaswamy acknowledged that there was no viable path for him to secure the presidency. As he declared the suspension of his campaign and his support for Trump, a hush fell over the crowd, with one person even pleading, “Don’t do it!”
Ramaswamy emphasized that he and Trump were the only candidates truly committed to the “America First” ideology. Interestingly, this endorsement came after Trump had criticized Ramaswamy on social media, accusing him of not being a true supporter of the “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) movement.
“Vivek started his campaign as a great supporter, ‘the best President in generations,’ etc.,” Trump wrote. “Unfortunately, now all he does is disguise his support in the form of deceitful campaign tricks. Very sly, but a vote for Vivek is a vote for the ‘other side’ — don’t get duped by this.”
“Vote for ‘TRUMP,’ don’t waste your vote! Vivek is not MAGA,” Trump continued. “The Biden Indictments against his Political Opponent will never be allowed in this Country, they are already beginning to fall! MAGA!!!”

Why did Vivek Ramaswamy choose to endorse former President Donald Trump despite Trump’s previous criticism of him?
Pharmaceutical executive Vivek Ramaswamy shocked the political world on Monday night as he announced his withdrawal from the Republican Party presidential primary race. Despite his low polling numbers, Ramaswamy managed to captivate his audience in Iowa with his decision and his subsequent endorsement of former President Donald Trump.
Speaking to his supporters, Ramaswamy acknowledged that there was no realistic path for him to secure the presidency. As he declared the suspension of his campaign and threw his support behind Trump, a sense of anticipation filled the room, with one person even pleading, “Don’t do it!”
Ramaswamy made it clear that he believed both he and Trump were the only candidates truly committed to the ”America First” ideology. Interestingly, Ramaswamy’s endorsement came after Trump had criticized him on social media, accusing him of not being a genuine supporter of the “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) movement.
In a series of tweets, Trump wrote, “Vivek started his campaign as a great supporter, ‘the best President in generations,’ etc. Unfortunately, now all he does is disguise his support in the form of deceitful campaign tricks. Very sly, but a vote for Vivek is a vote for the ‘other side’ — don’t get duped by this.”
“Vote for ‘TRUMP,’ don’t waste your vote! Vivek is not MAGA,” Trump continued. “The Biden Indictments against his Political Opponent will never be allowed in this Country, they are already beginning to fall! MAGA!!!”
This development has left political analysts perplexed, as Ramaswamy’s endorsement of Trump seems somewhat at odds with their previous public exchange. Nevertheless, it is a testament to Trump’s continued influence within the Republican Party.
