Kay and Scaramucci say Ramaswamy’s ad could damage his Ohio bid

Do Kay and Scaramucci think the ad will hurt Ramaswamy? Yes. Anthony Scaramucci says the ad will not help Ramaswamy and that he could lose the race by an even wider margin because people may view it as a bad idea. Katty Kay also says the ad turned against Ramaswamy. She calls it “political malfeasance” and says it reflects worsening, desperate campaigning. What reasons do they give?

Direct answer

Yes. Scaramucci says the ad will not help Ramaswamy and that he could lose by a wider margin because people will dislike it. Kay says the ad boosted Acton’s standing in prediction markets, says she thinks Acton will win, and calls the ad “political malfeasance.” They also discuss JD Vance and Donald Trump’s reactions, but the passage does not show that either reaction caused an electoral effect.
