MSNBC Host Presses Vivek Ramaswamy on Accepting Immigrant Scholarship Despite Wealth
-
Republican Vivek Ramaswamy took a $50K Soros immigrant scholarship to Yale law despite being wealthy.
-
MSNBC's Mehdi Hasan grilled Ramaswamy over claiming he needed the scholarship when he had already earned over $1 million.
-
Hasan referenced Ramaswamy's tax returns showing he earned $600K+ before getting the scholarship.
-
Ramaswamy gave shifting explanations, first denying he said he needed the money, then claiming it mattered more when younger.
-
Hasan kept pressing Ramaswamy, who grew agitated, on the contradiction between his claims and his anti-Affirmative Action stance.
