Answered from High Stakes with HRC: The Midterms Prep Episode · On with Kara Swisher · 2026-10-28
Hillary Clinton called Vivek Ramaswamy's $4 million ad featuring Amy Acton's mother, estranged from her for 40 years, vile and untrue, and faulted J.D. Vance for standing by it given his own childhood with an abusive mother. She says the ad reflects a Trump-era playbook of lying and gaslighting, and urges outgoing Governor Mike DeWine, who condemned the ad and once put Acton in charge of Ohio's COVID response, to say he will not vote for Ramaswamy.
