Ramaswamy Mimics Trump's Combative Style in GOP Debate
- Vivek Ramaswamy indulged in petty insults and conspiracy theories during the GOP debate to get attention
- His behavior was reminiscent of Donald Trump's bullying tactics and paranoia
- Ramaswamy gave voice to the grievances of a segment of the electorate that likes "jerks"
- His success reflects the downstream effect of Trump in modeling bad behavior for young people
- Unless this trashy discourse is rejected, more candidates will mimic Trump’s no-boundaries example
