Vivek Ramaswamy, a former Republican presidential candidate, was ejected from an anti-Israel protest that was located a few blocks from the DNC after he made an unexpected appearance at the site.
Ramaswamy was immediately recognized by the throng of radical activists upon exiting his vehicle, and he was subsequently surrounded by protesters and journalists at Union Park, where the protests have been taking place for the past week.
“You should take off. We don’t want you here,” Hatem Abudayyeh, who openly supports Hamas, said to Ramaswamy.
“The good news is we are in America and so we all actually get to express ourselves,” Ramaswamy shot back.

Ramaswamy expressed his satisfaction with his interaction with a communist who sold him a newspaper on communism for five dollars prior to the onset of the conflict.
Protesters were in possession of a variety of flags, including Palestinian, Black Liberation, Communist, and Hezbollah flags, at the park.
