Vivek Ramaswamy

It's a tough message at times to deliver.

It's not one that lands well on everyone's ears.

At a certain level, I don't care.

That's the truth.

And that's what I'm gonna give you.

And I'm gonna give it to you because I'm grateful to this country.

And I think that is what is gonna be required to save this country.

And, you know, I think the red team, blue team stuff,

It's fine, you know, it's the way partisan politics works, but I think that there's a deeper project we're going to have to undertake in this country to revive the spirit of that American dream from a culture of victimhood, from the popularity of socialism in the many avatars in which it shows up today.

That's hard work ahead.

And I believe, biased, obviously, but I believe that my winning this election in Ohio will...

help us take a step forward as a country, as the former Rust Belt, as a state, in the direction of economic empowerment, in the direction of educational achievement, in the direction of, dare I say, reviving that American dream that people like you and me have lived in this country.

And if we do that in one little state in the heart of the country, which happens to be the sixth or seventh largest state in our economy, I think it'll be a good step for our country, and I'm working on it every day.

if you're more frustrated by the idea that I would campaign with Hassan Piker than you are frustrated by the idea that we have backstopped a genocide or that we continue to rob people of getting basic healthcare in their country, I think you don't understand morals.

To me, morals are about big things.

People should have healthcare.

We shouldn't kill children.

Those are, to me, morals.

And you need to be able to figure out how to do those things in the world, sometimes working with people who don't share your morals.

And like, that's what makes politics hard, but it's not complicated.
