Vivek Ramaswamy is set to debut a new billboard ad in Times Square, New York, on Monday, urging New Yorkers to flee Socialist Democrat Mayoral Candidate Zohran Mamdani before it’s too late.
Ramaswamy, the entrepreneur and former Department of Government Efficiency co-head, is running for Governor of Ohio with President Trump’s backing.
Ramaswamy left his role as co-leader of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) shortly after Trump’s inauguration on January 20, 2025, reportedly to pursue his gubernatorial campaign. It came shortly after he made controversial comments on X about American culture and his support for H-1B visas for foreign tech workers, which sparked extreme backlash among Trump supporters.
He wrote, “The reality is we have a culture in this country that often celebrates mediocrity over excellence… We celebrate the prom queen and the quarterback and the class clown far more than we celebrate the kid who’s in the library or the garage obsessing over math, or science, or computer code.” He claimed this cultural tendency produced a “national shortage of talent” in fields like engineering and technology, and therefore argued H-1B visas are needed to bring in skilled foreign workers.
He made his political debut with a bid for the White House last election cycle.
Pro-Ramaswamy super PAC, “Vivek Super PAC — Victors, not Victims”, is behind the new $50,000 ad blitz in the Big Apple. The PAC has reportedly raised $17 million for Vivek’s gubernatorial bid.
Whether or not you support Vivek, this is clever.
