ramaswamy: it's a great question. one thing on my mind from this week is janet yellen making the latest pilgrimage to beijing three weeks after tony blinken did. she is the face of biden economics. think about the irony. she goes to china literally to greet her they announce mineral export restrictions of lithium and cobalt. they are requirements to make electric vehicles and because the biden administration has decided electric vehicles are our future, which i reject, the government should not be subsidizing it, but because the government decided it's the way forward, she has to bow down and kiss xi jinping's feet. we are dependent on them because of the disastrous decisions we made at home. if we did not have an electric car colts in the u.s. we would not be as dependent on them for lithium and cobalt. so you asked about national debt . let's start with a positive vision of how we are moving forward. the debate between the two parties right now is that you have spending cuts on the republican side versus tax increas

[applause] thank you. and i'm going to tell you what's going on in our generation. we are hungry for a cause. we are hungry for purpose and meaning and identity at a time in our national history. when the things that used to fill that void, faith, patriotism, hard work, family, these things have disappeared, . that leaves a black hole in its wake, a moral vacuum. and when you have a black hole that runs that deep, that is

what do you think of ramaswamy's campaign against woke capitalism?, even though they are private, they are so large that you can't just avoid them. they give all these -- pride month. >> reporter: what do you think of the argument that gay people were historically marginalized, couldn't have their own bars. they got raided. pride month existed not to give them a leg up but to say you are equal members of society ? >> that's a fair point, they were treated unfairly. at what point does pride month go away? when does it become pride year? >> reporter: ramaswamy is known for giving a lot of interviews. >> let's talk about woke capitalism. this new -- we will call it the woke left, they blow what i call woke smoke. >> reporter: when you talk about anti-wokism, my objection is not that -- >> i will stop you. i feel like you keep putting words in my mouth. i never talk about anti-wokism. i talk about national identity. >> reporter: when you talk about wokism as a negative thing -- >> it's a symptom of a deeper cancer. >> reporter: it's not a positive thing.

in fact they like vivek ramaswamy better. he is giving that 10% gimmick but i've listened to a lot of maga media. i listen to the candace owens show for a whole month for a bulwark article and they love vivek. this is an outsider who doesn't like the gop establishment, is not into the war in ukraine, not into vaccines. that's the kind of person that the gop base is looking for. and ron desantis is the kind of person who is a bunch of rich guys in chicago in new york are looking for. >> and the risk of being premature, the fact that he is firing, i think they fired at least 50 and as many as 80 campaign staffers on the desantis campaign, that happened once upon a time in mccain land, i think, in 2000. but is this anything but a swirling of the drain for desantis? when you have no measurable retail, skill and retail politicking, when you have no donor base, when your poll numbers are decreasing the more people learn about you and see you, is there anywhere to go but out? >> i was on the mccain campaign, as well, so i have a lot

tell me what you think about vivek ramaswamy?him. i like his goals. i like his values. i like what he says. >> i first really came to know vivek from the speech he gave at the nra convention. trump had spoken at the same conference, and it was very trumpy. vivek came in and had real direct appeal. it was not about him. it was about the audience. >> i came here to tell you why i became a gunowner. >> reporter: he is gaining praise among supporters of donald trump, who says he will pardon him if elected and he says he will further trump's agenda. >> there is a wall here where people with put post-it notes about each candidate. some say nice things, some say bad things. you can't tell this is trump's head anymore. daddy, handsome, save us, you're our last hope. so here we have mike pence. generally negative tone. we've got traitor, you lost, loser. so vivek, we've got a whole variety. vivek, have my children, vivek nt, future president. i like you, but you'll never win, possibly vp? tell me what you wrote on the post it? >> i wrote

ramaswamy talk about 2000 scan. this is not 2016.tegy how they will beat donald trump in the early states. >> shannon: des moines register about ron desantis not spending enough time there. they say republicans say if desantis wants to gain momentum, start hitting campaign trail in earnest in smaller meet and greets and talk to iowans one-on-one and we are getting word from his campaign that is what he is going to start doing, a bus tour and spending time on the ground, part of reset of the campaign. >> katie: they said they believe stories about campaign getting reshuffled, it is not an existential threat, they want his name out there, he did well in an interview with cnn. this is a race for second place, donald trump is beating everybody by 30% and donors have been trying to find a candidate they believe can convince trump voters to come to ron desantis, tim scott, vivek ramaswamy, even nikki haley and that is not happening. numbers game of how many people are in this race is splintered and until it is one-on-one race or one on two

ramaswamy seems to have energy, he seems to be really serious. to be issue oriented and in many ways he's the opposite of what a trump candidacy is. look, a lot of canned dates of the republican primary going back to last time, they had day in the sun and they would have a mamini surge and then dissipate. we'll see if this is just a mini surge or has staying power and whether he can get from 10 or 12 to 15 or 16. paul: everyone is kicking ron desantis while he's downright here. there's a lot of press core writing him off, but he's talking about some kind of a reboot on his campaign, broaden his message to the economy and the cultural battles he's been fighting .s that the way out for him and does he have a chance? >> i wrote that about a month or two and said, look, ron desantis is running the wrong campaign. he is really geared more towards the moderate republican voters running on a kind of competence in florida and making the right decisions and has to show he can handle the economy of foreign policy. instead, he spent too much time on these o

rachel: who has a lot more money behind him than vivek ramaswamy.e's a quote from the op ed that pete was talking about and said after donald trump, he might be the best communicator in the race. certainly no one else in the rest of the field is clearly better than he is. he tends to make favorable impressions wherever he goes. he's personal, warm backstage, knows how to give a speech and read a room and makes republican audiences believe that he really gets it. he compares himself to the trump of 2016 as the outsider candidate. all though he doesn't have anything like the star power of trump who dominated the media and brought what turned out to be a powerful new combination of ideas -- sorry, of issues and attitudes to the table. it's funny on my podcast from the kitchen table, we talked about vivek ramaswamy this week and this moment that he's having and what is it about him? there's a couple of things that i think are really interesting. the communication style. i think since ronald reagan, we haven't had someone who sort of has that american as

so what's behind the rise of vivek ramaswamy? well, he is here next to tell us. ♪.

maybe it is vivek ramaswamy. it could be, he is doing well.unning 2.0 campaign treat is a really smart guy he said a nice job and a lot of different forms. it has been the diminishment of desantis numbers that a benefited him. there's more hits coming for desantis he is doing paid canvassing one of them were caught talking about smoking weed or whatever honoring door cam, pain canvassers to get caucus goers, feels like a stretch if you want to build momentum. also reports that desantis has shed staffers, ten staffers as a financial disclosure showed donations have slowed or they raise $20 million but 3 million were earmarked for the general election, they burn through a lot and about 90 staff members. traveling staff members off, not a great time. kayleigh: the fundraising is interesting. there is fun lines, i raise this amount, the numbers came out in what i look at is cash on hand. how much do you have to spend. when you look at a fascinating trump 22.5 million, desantis half of that at 12 million. guess who is tied to donald trump with cash

douglas: and ramaswamy's interesting, isn't he, because he speaks directly to that dream.f about his parents who came to america as immigrants and how he, you know, started off with not very much but ended up with a good household, ended up with a great education and ended up being a great business tart-up leader in this country. it's a terrific personal if story, isn't it? >> exactly. that's why i think he's really connecting with so many people, because he is making that exact argument. and actually when i think about, i mean, i've started companies in the u.k. and here in california. unbelievably, in california now it's harder. i found there was more bureaucracy, more red tape. it was just a nightmare. and that's why everyone in america needs to pay attention to california. as you were just discussing in relation to crime, but it's always these -- all these other policies as well. buying a house, the climate extremism that starts here in california, it's spreading across the country. that's one of the main reasons that housing is so expensive. the taxes and if so on on

i want you to take a listen. >> actually, vivek is, -- ramaswamy is leading most of our candidates. you know why? because he says trump is one of the greatest presidents in the history of our country.
