“I’ve been consistent all along that I would have made different judgments than Donald Trump made. That is why I am running in this race for the presidency, the same race that he’s in, because I would have made different – and I believe better – judgments for the country. But a bad judgment is not the same thing as a crime. And when we conflate the two, that sets a dangerous precedent for this country. I don’t want to see us become some banana republic, where the party in power uses police force to arrest its political opponents.” – Vivek Ramaswamy, today on Fox News.
