The latest candidate to enter the GOP primary for the 2024 presidential race is not afraid of facing fights with the field's front-runner.
The comments from Vivek Ramaswamy, a 37-year-old billionaire who announced his run in the next presidential election on Tuesday, come after former President Donald Trump has already gone after former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley, who announced her candidacy in the 2024 race in mid-February. Trump has also attacked Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis , who has yet to announce a 2024 run but is strongly speculated to.
Ramaswamy went on to point out that when Trump ran for president in 2016, he was"an outsider" and"disrupter," which Ramaswamy claimed is what he is doing now for 2024. However, in the case that the former president does target the young billionaire, Ramaswamy says that he is prepared for it. "If he is, sure, it’s a competition," he said."We’re happy to do that. Competition breeds innovation, and it’s not going to bother me."The 2024 presidential election race is starting to heat up, with Ramaswamy, Trump, and Haley all vying for the GOP's candidacy. Former Vice President Mike Pence teased on Friday that he would make a decision on seeking the Republican nomination for president this spring.
Democratic President Joe Biden has not yet announced if he will seek reelection in 2024, though first lady Jill Biden said on Friday that 'he’s not finished what he’s started." Marianne Williamson, a liberal Democrat who ran for president in 2020, announced Thursday she will run for president in 2024, making her the first Democrat to confirm publicly her intent to enter the race.
