Vivek Ramaswamy Positions Himself as New Leader of MAGA Movement

Ramaswamy, endorsed by controversial ex-Rep. Steve King, pledges to pardon Trump if elected, but struggles to gain significant support.

Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy describes former President Donald Trump as 'wounded' and positions himself as the best candidate to lead the MAGA movement forward.
Ramaswamy criticizes some of Trump's policies and pledges to divest his holdings as president, unlike Trump.
Ramaswamy receives endorsement from controversial former Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, who has been associated with white supremacist views.
Ramaswamy has been sharing fringe theories about the Jan. 6 riots and other events, and pledges to pardon Trump if elected president.
Despite his efforts, Ramaswamy's support from likely Republican caucusgoers remains in the single digits, well behind Trump's field-leading 51%.
