he didn’t have to take that on. unforced error.

I imagine it was planned and considered. Trump did/does the same thing. Initiating controversial topics will bring attention to oneself. It gives one the floor, and a chance to speak and be noticed, as the cameras rush towards you. Ramaswamy is now in a GOP election, so it may bring him coverage that benefits him. He wants to show he's not a Mike Pence character.

Reminds me of Reagan: “Viet Nam was a noble cause.” The issue was not an issue at the time but he brought it up out of the blue.

Make Juneteenth a whole month. Gay Pride month would object.

Great point. Very little in politics should be taken at face value.
