Former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy says he went to Springfield, Ohio, and didn’t see any proof that migrants have been consuming pets, as former President Trump and a few of his allies have claimed.
Throughout a Tuesday morning look on CNN, Ramaswamy was requested immediately about claims that Haitian migrants within the metropolis are consuming family pets, allegations which were debunked by native authorities.
“Having gone to Springfield, I didn’t see that evidence,” Ramaswamy mentioned, earlier than noting that “there are residents in the city who are pointing to that.”
“So when we’re getting into fact-checking, I think we should apply the same standard to 360 degrees,” the Republican mentioned in reference to feedback made by Vice President Harris and different Democrats on abortion, claims he says are equally deceptive.
“Let’s not use the fringe words that somebody and either side might say,” he continued. “And let‘s focus on the actual content of the debate, even when we disagree most. I think that‘s going to be a key step to reviving our country.”
Ramaswamy is a relative newcomer to politics and was seen as a possible vice presidential decide for Trump after bowing out of the 2024 GOP major. He stays a vocal supporter of the previous president and his agenda.
