Vivek Ramaswamy fires another broadside at Nikki Haley with Kamala Harris jibe
WASHINGTON, DC: On Wednesday, November 15, Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy launched another furious jibe at his rival Nikki Haley after she claimed that the biotech entrepreneur "may have a girl problem" during a podcast interview.
Throughout the campaign, the two GOP runners have traded barbs, but the dispute reached a boiling point after the third debate when the 38-year-old Indian-American tech entrepreneur dubbed Haley as "Dick Cheney in three-inch heels."
Ramaswamy also criticized her adult daughter for using TikTok, to which Haley responded by calling him "scum."
During the third GOP debate, he also criticized debate co-moderator Kristen Welker and demanded the resignation of RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel.
Vivek Ramaswamy hits back at Nikki Haley's comments with stern replies
On Tuesday, November 14, Nikki Haley replied to Vivek Ramaswamy's attacks in an interview with the 'Ruthless' podcast.
The former governor of South Carolina said, "He comes out of the gate, he hits the female chair of the party. He hits the female anchor on the platform, and then he hits me. And I’m not saying anything, but he might have a girl problem."
Sorry Nikki, having two X chromosomes doesn’t immunize you, Ronna McDaniel, or Kristen Welker from criticism. I don’t think Kamala Harris is going to run so there might be an opening for you in the party of identity politics. pic.twitter.com/DPigMNQA72

In retaliation, Ramaswamy took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, "Sorry Nikki, having two X chromosomes doesn’t immunize you, Ronna McDaniel, or Kristen Welker from criticism."
He added, "I don’t think Kamala Harris is going to run so there might be an opening for you in the party of identity politics."
Recently, Ramaswamy also took a jibe at his rival after Haley stated, "Anti-Semitism was always bubbling underneath the surface, but now we're seeing this massive exaggeration of it, but no one is talking about why," when asked what she would do to combat hate speech online during a Fox News Digital interview.
She continued, "The truth is, if you look at social media, the misinformation and the dramatic sides of social media are instigating this. Why? Because it's being pushed by Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea."

Vivek Ramaswamy’s post has garnered immense social media attention, with netizens echoing his remarks toward Nikki Haley.
One wrote, "She’s so fake and disingenuous," while another added, "She’s trying to “I’m with her” her way to the nomination. So annoying."
"Every day she sounds more and more like Hillary," noted a person, comparing Haley to Hillary Clinton.
"Pulling out the gender card is a last-ditch-effort tactic. Comes across as desperation. She would've been better off refuting the arguments with facts. Then again, this is politics," expressed a user.
