On Tuesday, Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy urged them to distance themselves from the GOP donor class and promise to pardon former President Trump.
Ramaswamy posted on Twitter, "I challenge every US Presidential contender to join me in standing for TRUTH." Declare that you will release Donald Trump from these federal charges on Day 1 or provide a justification. Nobody ought to conceal. Biden not. DeSantis not. No, Haley. Pence not. No, RFK. Scott not. none of them. Politics above principles.
Ramaswamy delivered a lecture in Miami, Florida, the location of Tuesday's federal court arraignment of Donald Trump. In his address, he disclosed that his campaign wrote to every other candidate for president, pleading with them to agree to pardon Trump if they won.
The other candidates will find it challenging to sign this letter, according to Ramaswamy. "The same thing that would make it tough for them will make it difficult for me. Every Republican candidate has received calls from the donor class warning us to avoid this. I wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot rod.
Ramaswamy urged his other contenders to follow his lead and declare that they will not listen to the donor class. He said, "I will not submit to becoming a donor class disciple. "I believe that the Republican Party needs to declare its independence from its donor class. Because of this, I implore each and every other candidate to follow through on their promises.
The Special Counsel Jack Smith inquiry into the improper handling of secret information at the former president's Mar-a-Lago estate includes 37 allegations against him.
Trump has persisted in claiming that the Presidential Records Act gave him the right to continue negotiating with the National Archives over which records he may preserve.
