  • In fact, Ramaswamy in May 2023 compared Musk, his co-director for the newly formed Department of Government Efficiency, to a "circus monkey" for China, CNN first reported on Wednesday. "I have no reason to think Elon won't jump like a circus monkey when Xi Jinping calls in the hour of need," Ramaswamy said on the May 8, 2023 episode of his podcast.

The article from Cincinnati.com discusses how Vivek Ramaswamy, a 2024 Republican presidential candidate, once praised Elon Musk for his entrepreneurial spirit and innovation, particularly in relation to Dogecoin. Ramaswamy had previously expressed admiration for Musk's ability to turn Dogecoin, initially a meme cryptocurrency, into a more serious financial asset through his influence and public endorsements. However, the article speculates on whether this past admiration could influence their potential collaboration or competition in the political and business arenas, especially considering Musk's own political statements and actions. It explores the implications of their relationship on Dogecoin's future, questioning if Ramaswamy's views on Musk could affect his campaign or policy decisions if he were to gain political power.
