Vivek Ramaswamy told a crowd on Sunday that his campaign is going to deliver “a shock” to the world when the results of the Iowa Caucuses are tallied.

The Republican candidate has been traversing Iowa to drum up support going into the Caucuses this Monday, making a stop at Grimaldi’s Pizzeria in Ankeny.

“I think we’re seeing a late surge here,” he said. “We are going to deliver a shock to the world Monday night with all of your help to do it. The media has missed us the entire way, but that’s ok.”

Ramaswamy also said he was going to have a lot of fun proving the media wrong and doing what is right for the U.S.

During the speech, Ramaswamy was interrupted by a couple of men who walked up and wanted to speak.

The candidate asked the men to sit down, and even invited them to stick around for a Q&A session at the end.

“You’re going to respect our norms. You’re welcome to stay. We can have a Q&A. If not, you get the hell out,” Ramaswamy told the men.

He then said the men were sent to his event by the super PACs, calling them super PAC puppets.

“And this is why we need to get the super PACs out of American politics,” Ramaswamy said. “We’re sick and tired of it. The other candidates are threatened.”
