Vivek Ramaswamy Takes Sucking Up To Trump To A New Level Of Cringe

Forgotten Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is sucking up to Donald Trump as hard as anyone ever could by pledging to remove himself from the ballot in Colorado until Trump is restored. He is also demanding that all other Republican candidates do the same, but it doesn't appear that any other candidates are actually going to join his crusade. Ramaswamy likely thinks this will put him in a good position to join Trump's cabinet, but that's also a longshot. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Failing Republican presidential candidate Vikk Ram Swami has announced that because Donald Trump has been kicked off the ballot in the state of Colorado, that he will voluntarily remove himself from the ballot in Colorado. And he is demanding that every other Republican running in the primary next year do the same. No Republicans on the ballot in Colorado, Ramas Swami wants, here's what he said. I pledge to withdraw from the Colorado GOP primary ballot until Trump is also allowed to be on the ballot. And I demand that Ron DeSantis, Chris Christie and Nikki Haley do the same immediately, or else they are tacitly endorsing this illegal maneuver, which will have disastrous consequences for our country. He then, uh, posted a video clip of himself where he said that this ruling was a bastardization of the 14th Amendment, when in reality it's literally just going letter of the law of the 14th Amendment.

So, you know, there's that. Uh, to their credit, Chris Christie has also come out and said, this ruling is, you know, stupid. Ron DeSantis says, oh, they should overturn it, but none of them have joined in Ramis Swami's little one man Spartacus type crusade. They're just saying, oh no, it's so bad. We, oh, man. Well, we're not, we're not gonna, we're not gonna pull ourselves off the ballot, right?, I mean, come on. We don't want to do that. It's just a poor, poor Trump. Oh, we're so sad. Yay. Vote for me. Um, here's the thing where I'm a swami, you got no shot. Like it doesn't, you can pull your name off the ballot in Colorado and it's literally not going to change what's going to happen in next year's primary for you. New polls came out yesterday that actually showed that in Iowa, you're not only in fourth place, but your double digits, like actually not double digits.

Excuse me. The person in third place, who by the way is Ron DeSantis now actually has doubled the amount support you do. So you literally have no chance at becoming the nominee. You are not going to win one single state, and at the current polling rate, uh, you're not even gonna come in third in any state. So you can act like you're falling on your sword. I'm trying to protect Donald Trump. So take me off the ballot, dude. Nobody's gonna notice if you're not on the ballot, 'cause nobody's gonna vote for you, you idiot. But we all see what you're doing. We know that you got nothing to lose by pulling your name off any ballot anywhere in this country. What you're trying to do is kiss up to Donald Trump, right? You're trying to brown nose him, but you got a little too close and you ended up shoving your head directly up. Donald Trump's is what's going on. You want to be vice president, and if you can't be vice president by kissing up to Donald Trump, then maybe just suck up just enough to get a spot in his cabinet. We see what you're doing. We're not stupid, but by all means, please continue being a Donald Trump sycophant because it's showing us who you really are and what you really

Care about. The Supreme Court in Colorado followed the letter of the law. They did what they had to do. They interpreted the ruling, they interpreted Donald Trump's actions. They reconciled the two and said, yes, he did it. If you got a problem with that, then you have a problem with the US Constitution.
