Ramaswamy Reimagines Ohio As Flagship Of New ‘Revival Belt’

Former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, who recently left the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) founded by President Donald Trump and managed by Elon Musk, dropped more hints about a possible gubernatorial campaign in Ohio during a Wednesday appearance on the “Flagrant” comedy podcast.

Asked by comedian Andrew Schulz why Ramaswamy left DOGE at the start of the Trump administration, the possible candidate for governor cited the technological direction of the committee, but also said that participation in DOGE could preclude him from running for public office.

When describing his vision for Ohio, the Republican referenced the state’s legendary manufacturing history, suggesting the state could achieve similar under a Ramaswamy administration.

“It would be cool to bring that to what people call, I hate the term the Rust Belt, but what people call the Rust Belt,” said Ramaswamy.

He told the “Flagrant” hosts, “I think it could be the Revival Belt of the country. A state of excellence is what I want to help us create. And I think it would be pretty cool, not just for the state of Ohio, but then in the laboratory of a democracy, to show the rest of the country what’s actually possible.”
