Vivek Ramaswamy to rally Republicans for Rick Scott

Vivek Ramaswamy
Starpower comes to the state Sunday for the Senator's re-election bid.

A former presidential candidate is going to help get Sen. Rick Scott over the hump in November’s election.

Businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, one of many Republicans who briefly ran against Donald Trump in the former president’s political comeback election this year, will be at 661 Maplewood Dr. Jupiter FL, 33458 Suite 12 at 3 p.m. Sunday.

The former candidate has already endorsed Scott in his bid for Senate leadership, posting in May that “Scott is *BY FAR* the best choice among those running for Senate Republican Leader. He successfully led a big business & a big state, there’s no doubt he can do this job. He also possesses a very rare quality in DC: caring about what *voters* actually want”

Though the rally is “in support of Senator Rick Scott, who continues to travel the state helping Floridians after Hurricane Milton,” Ramaswamy “will encourage Floridians to vote early and to support Republicans up and down the ballot.”

The race between Scott and Debbie Mucarsel-Powell is close according to polling averages, which show the Senator four points ahead of the former one-term Congresswoman from South Florida.

    Wow. Google the address — looks like another Four Seasons (Landscaping Company). I expect that it might be full to capacity, although the capacity may be in the double digits. Star power.

      It’s by Home Depot. You can do some shopping before or after. Very convenient.

    “He successfully led a big business…” He led the business into the largest medicare fraud prosecution in American history. Fines, costs and restitution around $1.7 billion.
    These billionaires are a big help for Republicans around election day because they want to continue to get a big break on tax day.

      Fraud schemes are what Republicans nurture and cherish! The scam started with Reagan and the rise of phony evangelicals.

        So many honest Demo politicians. Bob Menendez comes to mind. Didn’t he throw his wife under the bus at some point? What a lying, stealing, dishonest POS. Oh and then there is Nancy Pelosi. What is her net worth now? Of course she was insider trading. Tipped off by other Demo cheats. Finally back to the Biden family of millionaires. My favorite is Hunter. Who out there could get hired by the Board of Burisma and not speak or write a lick of the Slavic language?

          Compared to the master grifter and con man DJT?

          This is not a brief for Ds who rip off the public, either. Crooks of all stripes need to be exposed and tried in court — and not let off by taking the 5th 75 times.

    Vivek Ramaswamy is very smart. But his endorsement of Scott, one of the biggest crooks in government, shows that he is not very strong in the principles department.

      It has been said, pretty accurately, that money is the root of all evil. And big money …
