Vivek Ramaswamy called Nikki Haley a “Dick Cheney in three-inch heels,” and attacked her daughter’s use of TikTok.

Haley called Ramaswamy “scum,” and said Ron DeSantis has not been tough enough on China for “murdering Americans from fentanyl.” DeSantis accused Haley of writing a Chinese ambassador a “love letter.”
