Trump fiercely defends Vivek Ramaswamy's controversial attack ad against Amy Acton

What the coverage shows

Most outlets converge on Trump backing Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad against Amy Acton and on the ad’s use of Acton’s estranged mother. Several, including NBC News, France 24 and Channel 4, foreground JD Vance’s “stop whining” defense, while NBC and 60 Minutes also give space to Republican critics such as Gov. Mike DeWine. The Associated Press and BBC add the most explicit context from their extracts about the family abuse allegations, and The Independent singles out CNN’s Scott Jennings as an additional critic.
