I need every Ohio politician to understand that we will never let anyone forget your ties to his "man" if you continue to support him

Chris Christie knew who Vivek Ramaswamy was from the jump.
One of the loudest anti-trans politicians in #Ohio, PASTOR Gary Click, is one of the only Republicans still defending Any Acton's birth mom
Pastor and State Rep Gary @Clickforohio: still defending a known pedophile protector as of 3 hours ago

Why is this tweet still up, Rep @Lear4Liberty?
💥- What does @amyactonoh ‘s own mother say about electing her? DON’T‼️
Watch and listen ⬇️
If you’re still thinking about voting for her or a 3rd party that could help her win, or not voting at all (which could also help her win), DON’T‼️
Vote for Vivek! Protect Ohio!

I call on every single Republican to disavow Vivek Ramaswamy and what he did. We must have humanity in times like this. Something Vivek clearly never had.

This is the second time in a week that Vivek Ramaswamy has featured a child sex abuser in an ad.
This time the man raped Ramaswamy’s opponent when she was 12-years-old.

There you have it. Court records confirm the charges against Amy Acton’s stepfather for sexually abusing her.
The ad put out was a complete lie told by an abusive mother, and Vivek owns that now.
An insanely depraived, cruel, and inevitably politically stupid move.
NEW: Following the release of an ad in which her mother, Donna Arthur, attacks her, court records obtained by @NRO confirm key parts of Amy Acton’s personal history, including that she was sexually abused by her stepfather while Arthur was married to him nationalreview.com/news/amy-…

Brought to tears. This is going to backfire so badly. Vivek is scum.
.@amyactonoh on Vivek Ramaswamy's abhorrent campaign ad:
"I won't normalize somebody who has said that my childhood is 'something I'm just complaining about,' who today, just released an ad using my birth mother, who I was removed from at the age of 12 for severe abuse and neglect and sexual abuse... The words our leaders use matter and I think it's gonna take courage right now from all of us to stop normalizing this sort of rhetoric."

🚨 “SHAME ON VIVEK.”
Amy Acton’s brother fires back in a powerful new ad after Vivek Ramaswamy’s allies amplified an attack featuring their estranged mother.
He reveals how Amy endured years of physical and sexual abuse as a child to protect him from their stepfather. meidasnews.com/news/shame-on…

What Vivek did was despicable. He should drop out and never run for office again.

Have you seen this disgusting attack ad against @amyactonoh (D) in OH? Vivek Ramaswamy has always been insufferably sleezy, but this is next level.
Weaponizing a woman’s childhood sexual abuse is despicable. And so is her mother for doing it.

October is known for disgusting political attacks, but we cannot be indifferent or tolerant -- this must be condemned. | @kathrynlopez

“The ad might be a lie. But we paid to produce and air it anyway.” — Vivek Ramaswamy’s campaign
.@VivekGRamaswamy campaign responds:
ALT Attributable to Connie Luck, spokesperson for the Vivek Ramaswamy campaign: “We don't know what happened between Amy and her mother, who first spoke out about Amy in 2020, but we know that Amy Acton is a serial fabulist who has some serious problems with the truth that the public needs to be aware of before deciding who to entrust as governor.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Donna Arthur lost custody of Amy Acton at age 12 after Acton's stepfather was charged with raping her. Arthur stayed married to him until his death. Acton and her brother have been estranged since. Multiple outlets cite 1978 court records of the charges.

Vivek Ramaswamy is unfit for any public office.
At any level.
And the sooner this conman and low life is off the public stage, the better.

NEW: Amy Acton releases a rapid-response ad hitting back at Vivek Ramaswamy’s vile attack ad featuring her estranged mother.
The new ad features Acton’s brother recounting the horrific childhood sexual and physical abuse she endured while protecting him.
