'This is a dog whistle': The View's Alyssa Farah Griffin calls out Vivek Ramaswamy for using Nikki Haley's maiden name

While Vivek Ramaswamy addresses Nikki Haley’s claims against him for not supporting Israel, he refers to her with her maiden name, Namrata Randhawa

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: GOP candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has added a new section to his official website: “TRUTH. Over Myth.” In this section, Ramaswamy has addressed several claims made against him, including those by the Former Governor of Southern Carolina and GOP candidate, Nikki Haley.

As Ramaswamy addresses Haley’s claims against him for not supporting Israel, instead of addressing her as “Nikki Haley,” Ramaswamy addresses her by her maiden name instead, “Namrata Randhawa.”

After this, ‘The View’ co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin, took to X, and called out Ramaswamy for the same, labeling his actions “dog whistle.”

Vivek Ramaswamy uses Nikki Haley’s maiden name on his website

‘The View’ co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin shared a screenshot of Vivek Ramaswamy’s website, where he used Nikki Haley’s maiden name.

The extract from the website read, “WRONG. Keep lying, Nimarata Randhawa. The desperation is showing. By the end of Vivek’s first term, the US-Israel relationship will be deeper and stronger than ever because it won’t be a client relationship, it will be a true friendship.”

It also included, “The centerpiece of Vivek’s Middle East policy in Year 1 will be to lead “Abraham Accords 2.0” which will fully integrate Israel into the Middle East economy – by adding Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, and Indonesia to the pact which was one of President Trump’s crowning foreign policy achievements.”

This new addition to Ramaswamy’s website is a part of his campaign and the goal is, “Addressing the BS, baloney, lies, and planted trash 🗑️ peddled by insecure campaigns, Super PAC puppets, “listless vessels” of the political establishment, and fake establishment media. Your one-stop shop for getting to the TRUTH.”

So far, Haley is the only Republican candidate he has mentioned in this new part of his website.

Along with the screenshot shared by Alyssa Farah Griffin, she also wrote, “Of course, Vivek is referring to Nikki Haley by her maiden name - Namrata Randhawa - on his his website. Reminder: Nikki is the name on her birth certificate & this is a dog whistle. Crazy to see it coming from a fellow Indian American.”
