I am absolutely disgusted by Vivek Ramaswamy. What he has done to his opponent, Dr. Amy Acton, is beneath any standard of human decency. When Amy Acton was a child, she suffered horrific abuse. At the age of 12, she was removed from her mother’s custody after her stepfather was charged with sexually assaulting her. Her mother stood by her husband, and Amy has been estranged from her for decades. Now, decades later, Vivek Ramaswamy has decided to exploit this painful childhood trauma for political gain. His campaign produced an attack ad featuring Amy’s estranged mother accusing her own daughter of lying about her childhood. And he is spending $4 million promoting it. What kind of disgusting human being does something like this? Imagine being a child who suffers sexual abuse, whose own mother fails to protect her, and who spends decades trying to overcome that trauma. Then imagine running for public office, only to have your political opponent bring back the very person who failed you as a child to publicly humiliate you. How morally bankrupt do you have to be to think this is acceptable? And what kind of mother would participate in such a campaign against her own daughter? I have seen some disgusting things in American politics, but this is a new low. I don’t care whether you are a Republican or a Democrat. There are certain lines that no decent human being should ever cross. Exploiting the childhood sexual abuse of your political opponent is one of them. And I have a particular question for Christians in Ohio who continue to support politicians who engage in this kind of behavior. What kind of Christianity are you representing? This is not Christianity. This is political idolatry. Vivek Ramaswamy has shown us what he is willing to do to gain political power. He is willing to exploit the trauma of a woman who suffered sexual abuse as a child. I find that absolutely disgusting. And I would be shocked if any decent person could watch this ad, understand the facts behind it, and still defend what Ramaswamy has done. There is no political victory worth sacrificing your humanity for. Shame on Vivek Ramaswamy. And shame on everyone who supports this moral bankruptcy.
