Fox News Anchor’s Attempted Grilling Of Vivek Ramaswamy Falls Flat

-

attempted to throw him off balance, but Republican presidential hopeful confidently stayed on message during his appearance on last night.

Ramaswamy addressed his campaign's success and the urgent concerns of voters during his appearance on “Your World.” However, when Cavuto raised the issue of the 91 criminal charges against former President , Ramaswamy firmly dismissed their credibility, prompting concern from the Fox News anchor.

The Georgia portion of the interview starts at the 3:30 mark:

Mediaite has a partial transcript:

Cavuto: But there are 91 criminal charges in all of that, as you're aware, over four criminal cases. They can't all be politicized, can they? I mean, there's something that the former president must have done in any one of these that struck you as wrong, if not illegal.

Ramaswamy: I think, Neil, just because the government has brought a case, if we're going to be a culture that now starts to say there must be something wrong if the government has charged 91 counts, I think that's a people of sheep. And when the people behave like sheep, that breeds a government of wolves.

After speaking over each other, Cavuto got Ramaswamy to clarify that he's skeptical of the charges.

Trying to press further, Cavuto asked the entrepreneur-turned-presidential candidate, “You don't think there's anything in this case that shows or even strongly hints of the former president trying to reverse that Georgia, that Georgia contest?”

“Neil, you know, I've had this conversation before,” Ramaswamy replied.

Cavuto pushed back one last time:

Cavuto: But when you have the Republican governor of Georgia who has said that this report is irrefutable and that this was an attempt at voter fraud that was scorching, and you have others who've taken similar views, including the secretary of state there, a Republican, who said that Donald Trump went too far. Wouldn't you put your trust or at least your instincts in those guys, Republicans, who said that this has been well-examined, aggressively examined, and there was nothing to it?

Ramaswamy: Neil, I have one question in my mind. I'm running to be our next president. I ask what is in the interest of this nation? Do I believe that these prosecutors or these elected officials or these federal prosecutors are advancing the interests of this nation when they're bringing this unprecedented indictment not one time, but now four times over? No, I think our country is worse off because of this politicization. …

  1. Caputo is a first classed ass. I wouldn’t watch him if he were the only thing on tv. Fox is a has been fake news group like cnn and msnbc.

  2. Cavuto is and has always been a anti Trump liberal
    who’s main goal is to be in the good graces of his
    democrat liberal bosses side of the socialist agenda.

  3. No surprise, Neil Cavuto is a liberal and a good fabricator, once telling Hannity he wasn’t one. He said it in the context of selling a book after Sean commented that he was glad to have him on the show and he just assumed he was a liberal in disagreement with Sean on many issues. Did anyone hear Vivek Ramaswamy say he will pardon Hunter Biden if elected president? It has been a bone of contention among conservatives that he said that but I also heard he didn’t say it.

  4. Vivek sounds and looks better every time he is seen on the news. He could be a great VP for DJT or even become the President himself.
