Is he going to be Vice President?

Vivek Ramaswamy, also rumored to be a Trump Veep choice spoke to RNC convention attendees about the attempted assassination.
“I think we came within a hairsbreadth of a second civil war in this country,” Ramaswamy said.
Vivek compares the way Democrats and the liberal media have vilified Donald Trump to how both groups demonized Abraham Lincoln before his assassination.
