When the moderators returned to Ramaswamy later in the evening, he launched an attack that seemed at once a snarky fashion review and a critique of neoconservatism.
“Do you want a leader from a different generation who’s going to put this country first? Or do you want Dick Cheney in three-inch heels? In which case, we’ve got two of them on stage tonight,” Ramaswamy said in an apparent three-part reference to George W. Bush’s vice president, to Haley, who does indeed wear high heels, and to DeSantis, who has denied allegations that he wears boots with a heel to boost his height.
DeSantis ignored the schoolyard taunt. Haley did not. “They’re five-inch heels,” she corrected Ramaswamy, also adding, “They’re not for a fashion statement, they’re for ammunition.”
