Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy learned the hard way that the truth hurts during a campaign event over the weekend.
One of Ramaswamy's campaign signs, which had the word"truth," fell on the Republican presidential hopeful while he was speaking at a fair in Lancaster, New Hampshire, on Sunday.Vivek is getting crushed by the TRUTH pic.twitter.com/t1MM7P06zvRamaswamy was only interrupted for a moment by the falling sign and continued his speech at the fair.
Whether the sign falling was a harbinger of what was to come for Ramaswamy or a mere annoyance, it nonetheless happened as he has faced increased scrutiny and attacks from fellow Republican presidential candidates. The entrepreneur and author has been accused of flip-flopping on several topics, including foreign policy and pardons. He has also faced criticism from candidates such as former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley for his stance on foreign policy at the first Republican debate last month.
In response to these accusations, the Ramaswamy campaign set up a website that claims to dispel the"myths" from the truth about his policy stances.Ramaswamy is in a distant third place, according to the RealClearPolitics polling average, with 7.0% in the national aggregate of polls for the Republican presidential primary.
The polling average shows former President Donald Trump far ahead of the field with 53.4% and Gov. Ron DeSantis in second place with 14.8%. Haley has gained on Ramaswamy since her strong performance at the Republican debate in August and sits in fourth place with 6.1%.
