Vivek Ramaswamy mocked for evading Fox News host’s questions on whether he’ll donate to Trump campaign

WASHINGTON, DC: On Wednesday, March 6, Fox News anchor Neil Cavuto discussed with former Republican presidential contender Vivek Ramaswamy about former President Donald Trump's chances of uniting the party after Nikki Haley dropped out of the GOP presidential race, per Mediaite.

“I think there’s an opportunity to win in a landslide like what Reagan delivered in 1980 and 1984. That’s what I believe Donald Trump can deliver if we get this right between now and November,” Ramaswamy replied.

What did Ramaswamy say about Trump unifying the country?

Cavuto rebutted Ramaswamy’s bold claims by asking him, “Do you get a sense that Donald Trump has the DNA to do that?”

“In other words, to be a unifier, to be magnanimous, to stop the name calling and that kind of stuff, because that is what holds a good many Americans back,” he continued.

“They do like what he did in office or a good many of them. But when it comes to pulling the lever and realizing that that taunting and some of his less, you know, warm and fuzzy parts, that’s where they draw the line,” he added. “What about you?”

Ramaswamy then explained, “Well, look, I think there’s two things I’d say in response to that, Neil. First, most Americans know to judge a man not by his words, but by his actions. And for the better, in Donald Trump’s case, when you look at that first term, he kept us out of foreign wars and he grew the economy.”

The 38-year-old biotech multimillionaire then went on to say, “Two, things that Americans really wish for now, with an economy where they’ve struggled and on the brink of potentially major conflicts around the world. Look at a man who’s actually done the job.”

“And for the first time in American history, we have and I say this as a scientist, somebody at least who was in the biotech world, a controlled experiment. Okay. You have four years of Biden and you have four years of Trump. Compare the two,” Ramaswamy stated.

Following Ramaswamy's additional commendation of Trump, Cavuto inquired, “You’re a very successful businessman, a biotech entrepreneur, and you’ve made hundreds of millions of dollars. We’re told that Donald Trump has asked Elon Musk for some support. I dunno if that’s true or not. Elon Musk made it clear that he’s not giving to either Joe Biden or Donald Trump.”

Cavuto posed to Ramaswamy, “I’m just wondering if he were to go to you and say, all right, can you can you loan my campaign some money? What would you say?”

“So look, Donald Trump is not in need of anybody else’s help or anything else. He’s in the pole position to do this well,” the firebrand Republican responded.

Cavuto interjected, “He does need money, every campaign needs money.”

“And in my case. And look, I think, and the beauty and the beauty of this is you have grassroots supporters,” Ramaswamy asserted.

“That’s actually been the character of the America First movement. It isn’t a movement of just big check writers, as it is for much of the Democratic Party and the establishment wing of the Republican Party,” he claimed.

“Say no to the politics of yesterday. Say no to the puppetry. The beauty of that America First movement, including what propelled Donald Trump and the America First movement forward, was bottom-up – a bottom-up uprising,” he stated.

Cavuto reiterated his initial query by asking him, “So you would think about the money thing, but you’re not doing it now?”

Ramaswamy skirted the topic again, saying, “I’m going to be a vocal supporter, Neil. And, you know, each of us has a lot of businessmen on the sidelines. I’m focused on the front lines, and some of us have chosen to get in the arena, and that’s where I’m playing.”

Another user said: "So VP slot is LITERALLY up for grabs to the highest bidder on brand for #DonTheCon Got it."

Another user quipped: "No. He's got a family of hair plugs to feed."

Finally, this user tweeted: "That’s a no. He knows what’s being done with the money."
