The Quad City Times, a major newspaper in Iowa, has officially apologized to Republican primary candidate Vivek Ramaswamy for previously featuring him in a cartoon that depicts GOP voters as racists.
How it started: Although Ramaswamy defended the newspaper’s right to print the cartoon in a tweet last week, the Republican candidate still criticized the action by calling it “shameful.”

I don’t care about his Ethnicity, I care about his RELIGON.
I’d vote for a devout Hindu over a fake Christian or fake Jew.
A Hindu would lead to Hindu conversions, we already doged a bullet with Romney.
I wouldn’t accuse Willard the Rat of being a Christian, a Conservative, or a Republican. Fortunately, I never voted for him in 2012 (voted for Virgil Goode over the two evils). Of course, he was only running to make sure Emperor Zero was elected, just as he personally recruited Egg McMuffin in 2016 to try to sabotage Pres. Trump.
As for Vivek, he might be better served trying for a lesser office of Governor or Senator from his home state of Ohio. Show if his stances are real or just posturing.
I’m not terribly worried about mass Hindu conversions in America. Especially when folks learn they’d have to give up steaks and hamburgers. ;-D
Exactly.
“Maybe call him VR.”
His dad uses his first and middle initial - “VG Ramaswamy” - really a good person and I totally support his son. I think he figured it was easier for people to just call him VG than try to pronounce his first name.
Its put out there with an apology in the wings
Lee Enterprises own this rag.
Nuff said.
Fired the cartoonist but NOT the editor who allowed it to be published. That’s really enforcing the mission and values of the QCTimes.
Yes; put it out there, then apologize. “The jury is instructed to ignore counsel's remark.”
Vivek wants to raise the voting age to 25??? Great way to earn my vote, although I prefer 30.
