: rachel is live with vivek ramaswamy, along with his wife, dr.my. >> steve: and rachel is wearing four-inch heels. >> rachel: i am wearing four-inch heels. you probably couldn't hear it playing on the tv. they played the clip about the three-inch heels and the exchange you had. people talking it is funny. this is an important topic to you about war and peace and wars we've been in the last decade. >> it is. time for generational change. dick cheney and george bush did lead us to war, racked up trillions in iraq and afghanistan. thousands went to die and did not advance american interest. i am keen to make sure we don't make the same mistakes again. declare independence from china, protect our own homeland instead of somebody else's border halfway around the world. i believe i'm the only person on that stage representing that view. >> rachel: that is what i noticed, you are only one with nonneo-con view. when on the trail, what are people telling you? are you seeing a certain age group is in support of you and other side isn't? you say it is gener

you adup donald trump's numbers and put them together with nikki haley's numbers and even for vivek ramaswamyn abortion ban and don't think it's feasible or going to happen, in ramaswamy's case say for federalist reasons say he doesn't want to sign one. this is something that one section of the republican base, a dominant section of the base has want, and it has not played out in the primary as a litmus test issue. these election losses emphasize that, i think there's a lack of confidence among republicans you can run on this issue and win in kentucky. mention there democrats played cameron perfectly. he was defending kentucky's full abortion ban with no exceptions and very late in the campaign for the first time said he supported some exceptions if the legislature would introduce them if it wasn't going to do. and same thing in the senate happening in ohio, a referendum on this issue. the best performing republicans say they don't want to go there and say they want to run on something else. >> let's talk about governor haley for a minute. lots of analysis suggests she fared the best last nig

vivek ramaswamy is donald trump's wingman. any time donald trump says something stupid, vivek is in there with a trying to clean up after it. you think a guy with a harvard education would be able to get a better than that, but he's cleaning up what donald trump drops every day out of his mouth. >> just before i let you go, i want to ask you about the meeting that president biden had last night, yesterday all day with xi jinping. yesterday president biden doubled down on calling him a dictator, but also got some things done, fentanyl, reestablishing communication between the militaries. how would you have handled president xi in a different way, if you were president? >> what i would say is on the fentanyl issue, this should have been done quite some time ago. hopefully, the chinese will keep their word. now i don't trust them. i follow the reagan approach of trust but verify. we'll see if they comply with what they said they are going to do on fentanyl. on the issue of military to military communication, that's always a good t

she showed poise in the face of the craziness of vivek ramaswamy. she could the kind of determination and steely strength that needs to go up against foreign adversaries like putin. and she laid out, i thought, a very reasonable, cogent conservative discussion, if you will, around abortion. i know people were likely disagree with that because it's sort of a hot issue, but within the republican ecosystem, what she said probably heard her with some folks, but she took that risk in putting out this. i thought it was a good night for her. >> we will get into vivek, don't worry. i did think she had a good night, but i don't think she said anything on abortion. >> i'm kind of with you. i listened really carefully to what nikki haley actually said about abortion. i came away with the conclusion that she succeeded in talking for about three or four minutes and said absolutely nothing. she didn't say what she was for, which he was against. she said we all have to get along, we have to have 60 votes. this is a difficult issue. and sounded very much like a pol

stuart: vivek ramaswamy is with us now. n 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2023 under ronna mcdaniel, and you named her. but trump was the leader of the party through those elections. doesn't he share some responsibility for the losses? >> not in 2022 or 2023, stuart. i think we have to -- we've gotten into the bad habit of somehow pinning the tail on one man, donald trump, but i think there's a deeper issue. the republican party, we need to define who we are and what we actually stand for. is it the republican party of 2002? dick cheney and george bush's republican party which was well represented on that debate stage last night? fighting foreign wars on the other side of the world without taking care of american interests here at home. or are we a party of the next generation that actually looks after protecting americans in our own homeland. i have a different view, i'm from a different generation. my view is that the moral obligation of the u.s. president is exclusively to u.s. citizens here at home. i don't think that that view sho

and also another takeaway on vivek ramaswamy. no disputing the fact he wants to be the king of wokeness on the stage and he articulates that in every debate. but when he goes -- we heard him go after nikki haley and he also went after kristen welker one of the moderators, after nikki haley's daughter, he went after ronna mcdaniel blaming her for all the republican losses. that is not anything less than just a chauvinist pig against women blaming women for all the ails of the republican party when we know that donald trump is the anchor for the republican party right now. so i don't see how that will help boost him with women voters by any stretch of the imagination. certainly not going to win him any points with rational voters who are looking at him as someone who might be the standard bearer for this party moving forward. >> and i'm so glad you pointed that out because there were plenty of men available on stage for him to attack and we did not see him do that in nearly the terms that he attacked the women that you listed. tia,

we saw you right at the end of the debate and address vivek ramaswamy directly. now what? that wasn't me actually, stuart. there must have been a lookalike. i heard this reporting. i didn't speak to vivek, i have not spoken to him -- stuart: my apologies. >> you know, listen, he's at 4%, he needs a headline. i'm going to say what i've been saying to the republicans all along, our headlines should be about joe biden, fentanyl, the border, crime, terrible things that are happening in this country that the american people are looking to our party for solutions, but i also will stand by my record as rnc chair. stuart: he said -- >> i am the one who delivered michigan for the first time in 30 years when i was michigan chair. he -- we just won back the house under my leadership, and in 20 20222, the rnc turned out more republicans. we don't do the messaging, that's a pact, and our candidates have lost their messaging on abortion. in virginia the democrats spent $16 million on abortion as republicans did not respond. many kentucky dem the -- in kentucky democrats spent m

crucially, you can see nikki haley and vivek ramaswamy making moves.iowa.he also got that crucial kim reynolds endorsement. but vivek ramaswamy is moving all 40 of his campaign staffers just to iowa and new hampshire. the new hampshire, nikki haley has surged eclipsing desantis coming in to second place. chris christie hasn't left the race. so the matter is can she make a deal and get christie out of there. christie is holding on to the plurality of possible new hampshire primary voters that voted for joe biden. >> edward: there's a lot of moving parts to this. a key iowa faith leader, bob vander platts will make his endorsement tomorrow night. what do you make of that in the wake of governor abbott's endo,ment? what do you make of that? >> bob vander platts called huck key in 2008, santorum in 2012 and ted cruz in 2016. bob vander platts through his weigh behind all three of them. they went on to win the primaries. it's possible that he's able to move the momentum for desantis in iowa. remember, iowa is crucial. if desantis does not win iowa, it's har

joining us now is vivek ramaswamy. vivek, they are after you. vivek, for people who missed it, this was the moment that sent everyone into the stratosphere. >> she made fun of me for using tiktok when her own daughter was itting it. >> leave my daughter's name out of your voice. >> laura: could you have made that point without invoking her daughter? >> look, the point is not a criticism of her daughter, it was criticism of nikki haley, i'm also on tiktok. the point i made we as republican primary voters and leaders need to reach the next generation. the fact is nikki haley often talks about new generation of leadership. problem is, she's on the wrong side of that generational divide with lack of self-awareness, criticizing other people for not looking after their kids or family for use of tiktok when that is a gaping hole that does bear mention. i don't want to hear nikki haley get on her high horse, she uses talking points with respect to hunter biden all the time. if you can't handle the heat, stay out of the kitchen. if you can dish it, be wi

scott is out, vivek ramaswamy is crazy. i am hoping to break your streak here. thank you in all seriousness. i can't start a discussion on national security in light of the events of the last month or the events of my life the last 5 days without starting in israel. i was honored to be invited by the israeli government to come. and i was overwhelmed to be there this weekend and to see firsthand and to hear firsthand about the horrors of october 7th. let there be no doubt that in israel, october 7th will forever have the same importance as december 7th and september 11th have for the people of this country. the 1200 innocent israelis were slaughtered, women raped, babies burned to death and bodies dismembered in kibbutzes all over southern israel. more than 200 people have been taken hostage, some of them american citizens. and remain held in captivity today. we know this kind of barbarism can't be justified and cannot be ignored either. i just want to give you a couple of vignettes from what i saw. i was accompanied for most of the day by the speaker of the knes

is vivek ramaswamy going to be president? no. does he wanted podcast? yes. >> you mentioned that people should be concerned about these candidates unwittingly electing trump, but it seems like that argument is not good enough. that they should fear trump and vote for joe biden. otherwise, we would see biden performing better in some of these polls. >> you know, these polls need to be taken with a grain of salt. we look at the polls and he supposed to be such a drag on the ticket and he is supposed to be in so much trouble, and then democrats have this great night. so, yes, i think voters right now are grumpy. and wouldn't you be grumpy if you had been looking on tv at people in the middle east killing each other for a month? if you feel the malaise going on around? when the rubber hits the road and they have to choose between joe biden and the democrats are cuckoo republicans who are constantly manufacturing culture wars, are you going to vote for the actual outrage taking away choice from women, or are you going to vote for the manufactured outrage aga
