Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy hit back at CNN’s Dana Bash Sunday morning as she lectured him about his comments on race.
Bash accused Ramaswamy of taking his remarks to “another level” by comparing Democratic Massachusetts Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s comments to “grand wizards of the modern KKK.” The candidate made the remark in response to Pressley reportedly saying “we don’t need any more brown faces that don’t want to be a brown voice.”

“You know, I’m sure, the KKK was responsible for over a centuries worth of horrific lynchings, rapes, murders of black people. How in any way are the views you’re talking about comparable to the views and atrocities committed by the KKK?” Bash said.
