WATCH: CNN Commentator: MAGA Hat Just As ‘Triggering’ As KKK Hood

In a discussion on CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” Tuesday about the controversy surrounding Covington Catholic high schoolers’ encounter with a Native American protester, CNN commentator Angela Rye said that she simply couldn’t get over high school junior Nick Sandmann wearing a MAGA hat because it’s “as maddening and frustrating and triggering for me to look at as a KKK hood.”

After left-wing host Chris Cuomo suggested President Trump was being disingenuous in his outrage over the media’s libelous reporting on the incident, Rye agreed with Cuomo, but then transitioned to her larger point: The “standoff” between the Catholic high schoolers and activist Nathan Phillips was effectively a Rorschach test of people’s ideological perspectives.
