Vivek Ramaswamy dropped out of the 2024 presidential race
The 2024 presidential race is heating up as candidates campaign for the chance to lead the country. One of the most interesting developments in this race has been Vivek Ramaswamy's decision to drop out and endorse former President Donald Trump after a disappointing showing in Iowa. While Ramaswamy had initially promised to disrupt traditional politics with his MAGA-inspired ideology, he ultimately failed to make an impact on the race.
Vivek Ramaswamy dropped out of the 2024 presidential race after a fourth-place finish in the Republican Iowa caucuses.
He announced his support for former president Donald Trump, whose landslide victory in the Iowa caucus re-established him as the Republican frontrunner.
Ramaswamy failed to make a mark as he finished last, after the twice-impeached former president and rivals Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley.

Deception

The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, it implies that Vivek Ramaswamy has endorsed Donald Trump when he only expressed his support for him at the rally. Secondly, it suggests that there may be a future role for Ramaswamy on Trump's team when no such role has been confirmed or discussed publicly.
The article implies that Vivek Ramaswamy has endorsed Donald Trump when he only expressed his support for him at the rally. For example, it states 'VIVEK RAMASWAMY ENDS PRESIDENTIAL BID FOLLOWING IOWA CAUCUSES ȢWow! How was that? Pretty good, right?' and then quotes Trump saying 'He's a fantastic guy. He's got something that's very special because he started off with a zippo and he ended up very strong.' This implies an endorsement when no such endorsement has been confirmed or discussed publicly.
The article suggests that there may be a future role for Ramaswamy on Trump's team when no such role has been confirmed or discussed publicly.

]He's got something that's very special because he started off with a zippo and he ended up very strong. He did a great job. I was actually surprised when he called because he was doing well.
Bias
(80%)
The author has a clear bias towards Trump and his campaign.

Additionally, the author uses language that portrays Ramaswamy as an outsider who will be working with Trump for a long time.
As Ramaswamy wrapped up his comments, several Trump supporters could be heard chanting "Veep!"

It is unclear whether Trump alluded to a possible position for Ramaswamy in his presidential campaign or a hypothetical Trump administration.
Just one day after suspending his own presidential campaign
Vivek Ramaswamy has suspended his campaign for president following a predictably unimpressive showing in Iowa and an equally predictable endorsement for former President Donald Trump.
Ramaswamy embraced an ideology that was MAGA on steroids and promised to launch military strikes against Mexico, abolish the Department of Education and dismantle the entire taxation system.
When discussing his plans to address climate change, he insisted that it was imperative to 'drill, frack, burn coal.'
Ramaswamy also shares with Trump a penchant for public nastiness. During debates (which Trump skipped), Ramaswamy aggressively inserted himself into the center of every contest by relentlessly cutting off and attacking his opponents.
It was unclear whether Ramaswamy was running for president or for a Cabinet position in a future Trump administration. He called a man he was running against the 'best president of the 21st century' and constantly praised what he called Trump's accomplishments.
Ramaswamy promised to pardon Trump and some Jan. 6 defendants, which earned him praise from Trump himself.

Deception
(30%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author's claim that Ramaswamy became famous due to his campaign for president is false. In reality, he was already known as a self-proclaimed expert on woke ideology before launching his presidential bid. Secondly, the author claims that Ramaswamy embraced an ideology that was MAGA on steroids and promised to drill, frack and burn coal in order to address climate change. However, this is not accurate as he did not propose any specific policies or plans for addressing these issues during his campaign. Thirdly, the author's claim that Ramaswamy aggressively inserted himself into every debate by relentlessly cutting off and attacking his opponents is also false. In fact, many of the attacks were directed at him rather than other candidates.
