It’s Ramaswamy vs. “pudding fingers” Ron.

The campaign of upstart Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy mocked DeSantis Thursday after a group backing the Florida governor advised him to “take a sledgehammer” to Ramaswamy in next week’s first GOP debate.

A spokesman for Ramaswamy, who is closing in on second place DeSantis in the contest, obliquely referred to a viral ad that claimed DeSantis once used his fingers to eat pudding.

“If DeSantis struggles to use a spoon, I can’t imagine he is particularly agile with a sledgehammer,” the Ramaswamy aide said.

Exactly.

Put aside the petty sophomoric name calling and debate the issues.

If they will not, I will assume they bring nothing more mature than a junior high catfight and will reserve my vote for sanity.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Interesting that Ramsy is throwing insults just like Trump.  Let one of the adults in the room please prevail.
