Chris Christie got into a fiery exchange with Vivek Ramaswamy during Wednesday night’s fourth GOP debate, calling out the entrepreneur and fellow White House contender for repeatedly interrupting and blasting him for his attacks against fellow candidate Nikki Haley.

“It’s exactly what you said. You do this at every debate,” Christie said.
When Ramaswamy interjected, Christie said, “You go out on the stump and you say something, all us see it on video, we confront you out on the debate stage. You say you didn’t say it, and then you back away.”
