<p>Entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy says the Right is making a mistake with its current line of political attacks against Democrat nominee Kamala Harris.</p>
<p>Ramaswamy, who is this week&#8217;s guest on <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/show/sunday-special" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Ben Shapiro Show&#8217;s &#8220;Sunday Special,&#8221;</a> argued that it would be wise to nix attacks on Harris&#8217; personal politics, and instead go after the Democrat system.</p>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re not running against a candidate, we&#8217;re running against a system,&#8221; Ramaswamy told Shapiro.</p>
<p>&#8220;They literally just photoshopped the presidential candidate,&#8221; Shapiro noted. &#8220;I mean, they took the president, they made sure that no one challenged him the whole way through. He then was put in place as the nominee, and then as soon as he had a bad debate, they ousted him in favor of Kamala Harris.&#8221;</p>

<p>Harris, without a single primary vote, became the effective Democrat <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/24/us/politics/kamala-harris-democrats-nomination.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nominee</a> a short 48 hours after President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race. Ramaswamy suggested the debate that was the catalyst for Biden&#8217;s ouster was scheduled earlier than usual to give Democrats the &#8220;option&#8221; to switch out Biden if they needed to.</p>
<p>&#8220;And the point that you&#8217;ve made is that it would be a mistake to try and delve into Kamala Harris&#8217; personal philosophy, because this isn&#8217;t about that,&#8221; Shapiro said to Ramaswamy.</p>
<p>&#8220;I do think that&#8217;s a trap we risk falling into right now,&#8221; Ramaswamy agreed. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think that the right attack against Kamala Harris is that she&#8217;s a communist or a Marxist.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ramaswamy noted of Harris&#8217; far-Left track record, but added that calling Harris an &#8220;ideologue&#8221; in some ways &#8220;gives her too much credit.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think she actually is,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And if you level a critique that misses the point by half, I don&#8217;t think it lands on the public in the same way, because her policies are now shifted. She&#8217;s now running as some sort of faux centrist, selectively embracing free market policies, even though she doesn&#8217;t know, at times, even what they may be.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I think it misses the point to call her a socialist or Marxist,&#8221; Ramaswamy emphasized. &#8220;I think she is another cog in a machine. We&#8217;re not running against a candidate, we&#8217;re running against a system.&#8221;</p>
<p>Harris has already benefited from the Right going after Biden personally, instead of broadening out their attacks to the Democrat machine, the former candidate argued.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s actually legitimized Kamala Harris,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It created a dynamic where whoever was going to rescue the Democrats and independents in this country from Joe Biden &#8212; it&#8217;s the feeling that a tortured prisoner has towards their hero who releases them from captivity, whoever it is, you&#8217;re going to love that and fall in love with that person.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Kamala Harris benefited from that as opposed to really offering an indictment of the Democratic machine, and not even the Democratic machine, but the deeper managerial class in our country,&#8221; Ramaswamy said. &#8220;That would have been, I think, a more spot-on criticism.&#8221;</p>
