REPORT: Trump Endorses Replacement for Vance in Senate

Last week, Senator JD Vance (R-OH) resigned his seat in preparation to become the vice president.

That means his seat will need to be filled, and Donald Trump’s choice for the seat has already been released.

Trump Picks Vance Replacement

With Vance stepping down, there are some major rumors about who will take his post.

According to Trump insiders, Donald Trump would like to see Vivek Ramaswamy take that seat, which I believe is a mistake for numerous reasons, which I will get into in a second.

Ramaswamy is an Ohio native, but as far as I have been able to find, he no longer spends very much time there, so I am not sure how that will sit with Ohio residents.

To that point, Governor DeWine stated, “I’m looking for someone who really knows Ohio, who understands this state, someone who has experience, someone frankly, who is a hard worker.” Sources inside the governor’s camp believe DeWine will pick his Lt. Gov., Jon Husted, for the seat.

Hiding the Truth

I know Ramaswamy is a MAGA favorite, but that is likely because they know very little about the man, but I do.

When Ramaswamy was on the campaign trail, he was asked about how he made his fortune, and he responded, “I developed a number of medicines.

“The one I’m most proud of is a therapy for kids, 40 of them a year, born with a genetic condition who, without treatment, die by the age of 3.”

That is a bit of a stretch of the truth because Ramaswamy served as more of a financier in the medical field, not an actual developer, but the actual truth about how he made his money is very ugly, and it should have every person in this country demanding that Trump get as far away from him as possible.

Pump-and-Dump Schemes

Ramaswamy is very well-spoken, which is a big draw to him. He is intelligent, can debate with the best of them, and is very gifted at deflection. I have always characterized him as a snake-oil salesman because, in reality, that is how he made his money.

The first big hit for Ramaswamy was when he was pumping up an Alzheimer's drug called Axovant. The drug had been abandoned by other drug companies, which led to Ramaswamy’s company having a 78% stake in the drug. While Ramaswamy was publicly pumping up the drug, he was also selling off his stock, making a huge profit. Ultimately, the drug failed FDA testing, and the stock crashed from about $200 a share to $0.40, bankrupting all the small investors that bought into his hype.

In 2020, Ramaswamy did much the same thing with his Riovant Sciences stock. In the first deal above, he pocketed about $40 million. When selling off his Riovant stock, he pocketed about $200 million, conveniently right before the stock crashed to about 20% of its value when Ramaswamy sold it off. While he claims to have developed all these medicines, only one has ever come to fruition… VTAMA, a skincare drug.

If you look at his history of trades, this is what he does. He gets heavily invested in these companies, touts something, the stock rises, he sells off, and the stocks crash, bankrupting the people who financed his fortune. And just so you know, part of his education was paid for via a Soros Fellowship. As I stated, this man is a snake, and there is simply no way I will ever support him being involved in any way, shape, or form of our government.
