Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy’s national political director, Brian Swenson, is leaving the Entrapeanurs campaign to join former President Donald Trump’s team.

Swenson will be working with Trump campaign senior adviser Susie Wiles in the upper ranks of the reelection effort.

The Messenger, which first broke the news of the shakeup, reports:

The move is a blow to Ramaswamy, who soared to prominence over the summer but has struggled to maintain his momentum in the Republican primary. Ramaswamy is polling at around 5% in support in the average of national Republican polling compiled by 538. Trump’s lead in the race has climbed to about 60% nationwide, according to 538.

Swensen is a close ally of Wiles’ dating back to their work together on Florida Sen.
