Vivek Ramaswamy, an entrepreneur and former Republican presidential candidate, spoke at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee on Tuesday, a day that leading Republicans and other featured attendees were focused on the themes of safety and immigration.
Ramaswamy addressed younger generations, urging them to embrace Donald Trump as their candidate if they are tired of being “sold a false bill of goods.”
“But we can't just be cynical about our country, because the United States of America is still the last best hope that we have and we deserve a better class of politician,” Ramaswamy said. “One who actually tells us the truth even if it comes with some mean tweets from time to time.”
During the convention, delegates will adopt a party platform and former President Donald Trump will formally accept the Republican nomination for president. On Monday, Trump named Sen. J.D. Vance of Ohio as his running mate.
