DEVELOPING: GOP Presidential Candidate to Drop Out and Endorse Donald Trump?
Ramaswamy said he will make another announcement at the press conference.
“I will host a press conference today at 10:30 AM EST at the Wilkie D. Ferguson Jr. US Courthouse in Miami, FL to discuss the politicized prosecution of the former president. I’ll make another announcement there as well. If the captured media fails to do its job, real leaders in this country need to step up and do it instead. Principles over politics,” Ramaswamy said.
There is speculation that Ramaswamy will drop out of the GOP presidential primary and endorse Donald Trump.
cannot confirm the validity of the developing rumor.
🚨Rumor: Vivek Ramaswamy might drop out of the GOP Presidential race tomorrow and officially endorse Donald Trump for President.

Vivek Ramaswamy will be holding a news conference in Miami tomorrow morning at 10:30am.
Could he be the first to do the right thing and drop out and endorse President Trump?🤔#AmericaFirst #MAGA#Trump2024 https://t.co/0Q86UdylAM— John Sandor (@RealJohnSandor) June 12, 2023

-Vivek is an incredible guy, who loves his country and respects our president.
-Incredibly smart because he doesn’t have a chance to win in 24’ so getting out now and endorsing Trump would definitely help in the long game.
I think it’s both but I’m a fan of Vivek! https://t.co/RhCxdyutzB

There’s another rumor that Ramaswamy may enter the GOP primary for U.S. Senate in Ohio.

Ramaswamy last week said he would pardon Donald Trump if he was elected United States president.
“It would be much easier for me to win this election if Trump weren’t in the race, but I stand for principles over politics. I commit to pardon Trump promptly on January 20, 2025 and to restore the rule of law in our country,” Ramaswamy wrote.
His full statement reads:
We can’t have two tiers of justice: one for Trump, another for Biden. One for Assange, another for Manning. One for BLM/Antifa, another for peaceful protesters on Jan 6.
I never thought we’d see the day when the U.S. President deputizes the DOJ to arrest his lead rival in the middle of an election. Obama shamefully tried to deputize the FBI to infiltrate Trump’s 2016 campaign, but they’re leaving nothing to chance this time around: the federal police state is outright arresting Trump.
This is an affront to every citizen: we cannot devolve into a banana republic where the party in power uses police force to arrest its political opponents. It’s hypocritical for the DOJ to selectively prosecute Trump but not Biden.
There are also serious legal questions about the President’s power to declassify documents and the potential illegality of the over-classification of federal documents in the first place. That’s for the courts to decide, but *we the people* decide who governs this nation.
It would be much easier for me to win this election if Trump weren’t in the race, but I stand for principles over politics. I commit to pardon Trump promptly on January 20, 2025 and to restore the rule of law in our country.
We will restore the rule of law in America. pic.twitter.com/fg89i2L8cv

Ramaswamy has no chance of securing the 2024 GOP presidential primary.
If the rumor holds true, this would likely be a smart, calculated move to boost his future political aspirations.
