Today, Republican Governor Mike DeWine, who endorsed Vivek Ramaswamy, called on him to take down the advertisement featuring Dr. Amy Acton\u2019s estranged and abusive mother, who stayed married to Dr. Acton\u2019s rapist until he died, and condemned Ramaswamy\u2019s decision to spend millions of dollars airing the ad.<\/p>\n
Gov. DeWine slams Vivek Ramawamy\u2019s disturbing decision to campaign with Dr. Acton\u2019s abusive and estranged mother:
\n\u201cThe ad on its face is deeply, deeply troubling. But when you know the rest of the story, when you know the backstory, when you know that the husband of the mom was indicted by a grand jury after hearing testimony and that he took off along with the mother and that two children never saw the mother after that.
\n\u201cWhen you know that, it just to me, makes it more serious. It makes it just more wrong.
\n\u201cSo it’s wrong to run this ad, and even at this late time, like Fran saw the ad run this morning on, on TV, I would just urge the Ramaswamy campaign to take this down. It\u2019s just, it\u2019s just wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
