The successful businessman was unequivocal: “I will be helpful to this country in whatever way I can, but I would not be number two or member of an administration,” Ramaswamy said. If I want to have the greatest possible impact on this country, I don’t think that’s the path for me to take.

You’re dealing with a virus with unprecedented properties, he told us. Wuhan is home to the world’s only bioterror research facility, where scientists have been able to successfully engineer viruses to gain a new function. And we claim it didn’t originate in that laboratory. How ludicrous does that have to be, really?
