While some candidates call for Trump to step out of the race, others defend the former president on the campaign trail.
At the Grill 603 restaurant in Milford, New Hampshire, Vivek Ramaswamy delivered his pitch Thursday to a lunchtime crowd. The biotech entrepreneur, campaigning for the Republican presidential nomination, stood in front of a sign that outlined what he calls his core principals. They included"God is real,""There are two genders," and"Human flourishing requires fossil fuels."Ramaswamy, 38, is a conservative running in his first political campaign.
Ramaswamy renewed a pledge that, if elected president, he would pardon Trump if the former president were to be convicted."Criminalizing every bad judgment is a dangerous, slippery slope to go down in this country," he said. South Carolina Senator Tim Scott has called the charges political, suggesting that the Biden Justice Department is going easy on Democrats like Hunter Biden, while dropping the hammer on Republicans like Trump.
Another candidate who has been critical of the former president for some time is former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, who has called for Trump to abandon his quest to return to the White House. Meanwhile, despite his legal peril, Trump remains popular among most Republican voters in New Hampshire. "I think there's more he could be charged with," Holland said."Where's there's this much smoke, there's a whole lot of fire."
