“This disqualifies them”: Vivek Ramaswamy and Jake Paul TikTok dance video gets funny reactions online
A video of American entrepreneur and presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy dancing with professional boxer Jake Paul has sparked hilarious reactions online after it went viral on social media. On September 13, Paul, 26, shared a video of himself dancing with the 38-year-old personality on his TikTok handle, while urging other politicians to join social media to “engage with Gen Z and Millennials”.
According to news outlet Daily Dot, Jake Paul wrote:
“Bringing Vivek to TikTok because I believe our politicians of the future must connect with Gen Z and Millennials on the social media where we all live and breathe. It is strange that in today’s era our presidents have no social connection with us. Just occasional tweets.”
Vivek Ramaswamy, who revealed that he changed his mind about TikTok after meeting Jake Paul, has now become the first Republican presidential candidate to sign up on the social media platform. In his first video he said:
“We are in this to reach young people, to energize young people. And to do this, we cannot hide. And yes, I’m officially on TikTok. We will be here a lot. You can’t play in the game and then not play in the game, that’s why we’re here.”
However, the video prompted ridiculous reactions online, with one commenting:

On September 14, Vivek Ramaswamy announced on his X handle that he spent time with Jake Paul, who convinced him to join TikTok.
“Yes, kids under 16 shouldn’t be using it, but the fact is that there are many young voters and we’re not going to change this country without winning. We can only talk about the importance of GOP access.” Young voters are hiding in our own echo chambers.”
In February 2023, Ramaswamy called TikTok a “national security concern” and urged people to consider banning it.
“This is a Trojan horse for data collection in the United States.”
Furthermore, he accused China of promoting “digital fentanyl through TikTok”. In May 2023, Ramaswami expressed support for a plan to raise the voting age from 18 to 25, excluding youth who have served at least six months in the military or as a first responder, or who have volunteered to vote. Must have passed the same examination. Naturalization.
“When you give more weight to the Act, we’ll see 18 to 25-year-olds actually vote more than they do now.”
Vivek Ramaswamy’s idea received serious backlash, with some comparing it to literacy tests and other Jim Crow laws, which historically aimed to limit the voting rights of African-American citizens.
