The Patriots Caucus sends its regards to the notorious conman Vivek Ramaswamy.
Zeteo confirms what I wrote last week, with new details: Ben Yoho was all over the Hag from Hell ad.

Republicans Warned Vivek Ramaswamy His ‘Rapist Protector’ Ad Was a Terrible Idea The Ohio gubernatorial candidate was told using Amy Acton’s estranged mother in an ad would backfire. The story of how it came together is even worse than you think. Read: zeteo.com/p/republicans-warn…

This is basically why the GOP is losing.
Trump: You'll be my guest at Mar a Lago. The problem is that for $5,000, the most you'll be able to buy is a hamburger and maybe a small dessert. I'm not even sure you could buy that. That's not a good place if you're price conscious

This is an exercise in turning a depraved ad and a horrific miscalculation into a symbol of strength. Not sure Ohioans are going to agree.
🚨 BREAKING: Vivek Ramaswamy tells the Fake News outrage mob to SHOVE IT, he's NOT backing down after posting an ad of Amy Acton's mom calling her a liar "You never start a fight — but if you find yourself in one, you FINISH IT...They've attacked ME. They DEFAMED my mother to media SILENCE." "Yet at the same time, they'll trot out anything to attack a Republican." 💯 "The fact of the matter is I am running against somebody who is crazy, unstable and DISHONEST." "If they actually believe these are unfair attacks, you know what my opponent would be doing? She'd be agreeing to show up on a debate with me, as I agreed to on CNN and NBC!" There is no reason for @VivekGRamaswamy to apologize to these country-destroying Democrats. Acton has refused EVERY live debate invitation in the Ohio governor's race — including CNN and NBC affiliate WLWT — while hiding from unscripted questions and running millions in personal smears against him and his family! Amy Acton is getting the Kamala treatment. She must lose at all costs.

Democrat Amy Acton opens up about her childhood trauma being thrust into the Ohio Governor race, telling CNN she is learning things about her estranged mother that she doesn’t "even have time to process” in the final stretch of the campaign, and accusing her Republican opponent Vivek Ramaswamy of exploiting her mother in the attack ad.

Incredible closing message from the President.
Trump's affordability message: "You could even come to Mar-a-Lago. You'll be my guest. The problem is that for $5,000 the most you'll be able to buy is a hamburger and maybe a small dessert. I'm not even sure you could buy that! No, don't go there. It's not a good place if you're price conscious."

There is a big difference between a 45-40 lead and a 49-44 lead. Over the last 10 years, we've seen a lot of 45D-40R polls in Ohio, but this year, we've seen a lot more of the 49D-44R variety.

The polling error we have seen in Ohio during the Trump era is less overstating Democrats and more understating Republicans. Polls have gotten the Dem share of the vote pretty darn close in recent years. If the same holds true this year, Dems likely win.

I mean, are ya? People still asking about it.
Sen. @JonHusted (R-OH) on Vivek Ramaswamy's (R-OH) controversial ad: "Look, I said I wouldn't have run the ad but we're past that."

Vivek Ramaswamy refusing to take questions; sneaking out back doors: A very small d-democratic bus tour should come with plenty of time with questions. But despite repeatedly accusing Acton of dodging the media, The Swamp saw the extraordinary lengths Ramaswamy and his goons deployed to keep reporters. yahoo.com/news/politics/arti…

Replying to @SarahEDon
most of the R ticket is here, minus Sen. Jon Husted and Secretary of State Frank LaRose. LaRose is running for auditor (and my colleague, @joingles, is with him for an Election Night briefing in his official role)

NEW: I obtained the full Trumbull County file for Amy Acton's stepfather's 1974 charge which shows that he was indicted for incest involving his 16-year-old biological daughter in 1973. The sheriff was then unable to locate him to serve him a summons in the county and nothing further happened in the case. Donna Arthur, featured in Vivek Ramaswamy's still-running campaign ad, married Cledith the next year in a neighboring county.

Gas is high because of me! Great closing argument!
Trump: I knew that oil would go up. I actually thought it would go up 2-3 times higher and I was still willing to do it

Unlike @vivekgramaswamy, with one week to go @amyactonoh continues to talk with press across Ohio answering their policy questions (photo from today's interview with @21WFMJNews)!
