Former Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy is not getting offended by a joke some have deemed insensitive.
On Monday, Ramaswamy suspended his campaign and endorsed former President Donald Trump.
And the satirical publication, The Babylon Bee, decided to roast the biotech entrepreneur’s future.
“Trump Promises Vivek An Administration Position Running The White House 7-Eleven,” a story by the Bee read.
However, several users on X found the content to be insensitive:
But not everyone found the story offensive. The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh posted on X, formerly Twitter, “Check the comments to see ‘conservatives’ actually offended by this joke. Absolutely pathetic.”
“I guarantee is not in the slightest bit offended. You guys really dont need to be his white knight to protect him from Babylon Bee headlines. He’ll be okay. I promise,” he added.
And it seems Walsh was correct.
Ramaswamy shared his post and wrote, “I’m a ‘survivor'” with a laughing emoji.
During a campaign event on Tuesday, Trump appeared to suggest Ramaswamy will have some role in a potential second.
“He’s going to be working with us and he’ll be working with us for a long time,” the former president told supporters.
