MAGA world figures describing the ad as a ‘self-inflicted wound’ in private, report claims
Vivek Ramaswamy was reportedly warned by Ohio Republicans and campaign staffers not to run the controversial attack ad on Democratic opponent Amy Acton that featured her estranged mother - but went ahead anyway.
Some campaign staffers are so incensed by the decision to run the ad - which featured Acton’s 82-year-old mother, Donna Arthur smearing her daughter as a “liar” over child sex abuse she suffered - that they have considered resigning, according to Zeteo. Arthur lost custody of her children after her late husband, Cledith Arthur, was indicted for raping Acton when she was a child. She stood by her husband, who died in 2004.
Several Ohio Republican and Trump-world figures privately described the ad as a “self-inflicted wound” to Zeteo as the polls with Acton have narrowed.
I remember back during the discourse before Trump joined the race Vivek had a tendency to act like he was Trump and could therefore get away with stuff like this. It was made clear to everyone then that he did not have that sort of power but yet he continues to pretend he does. I think there must be something that short circuits in your brain when you become a billionaire. Probably mislead that while he could get into inner circles because his money, the Republicans will never accept a brown person. Candace being as close as you can get. For her I think it’s because she has resolve none of the other tokens have.
