American entrepreneur and politician Vivek Ramaswamy today issued a stern warning to the Republican Party following Democrats’ sweeping victories in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City.
In a video message on social media platform, Mr Ramaswamy described the results in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City as a wake-up call, urging the party to refocus on economic issues and abandon identity politics. He stressed on putting focus on affordability, and bring down costs of electric, grocery, healthcare, and housing.
He emphasized that Republicans should cut out identity politics, not focusing on colour of the skin or religion, but the the content of your character. American entrepreneur, who previously ran for president, is now running for governor of Ohio in the Republican primary scheduled for 5th of May, next year.
His comments come after Democrats made significant gains with Indian-American Zohran Mamdani winning the New York City mayoral race, Mikie Sherrill becoming New Jersey’s next governor, and Abigail Spanberger securing victory in Virginia.
