Vivek Ramaswamy halts 2024 campaign, pledges support for Trump
Republican Presidential Candidate Vivek Ramaswamy Suspends Campaign, Endorses Former President Donald Trump
After a disappointing performance in Monday’s Iowa caucuses, Vivek Ramaswamy has made the decision to suspend his 2024 campaign and throw his support behind former President Donald Trump in the GOP primary.
Ramaswamy, who secured a fourth-place finish in the caucuses, has been a vocal advocate for Trump and even campaigned on a promise to pardon the former president for any future federal convictions. While his main focus was on dismantling the administrative state, his loyalty to Trump seemed to waver when he chose not to withdraw from the race before the Iowa showdown.
However, Trump himself acknowledged Ramaswamy’s efforts and congratulated him during his victory speech on Monday. ”I also want to congratulate Vivek because he did a hell of a job,” Trump declared, eliciting cheers from the crowd. “He came from zero and he’s got a big percentage, probably 8%, almost 8%. That’s an amazing job.”
