VIDEO: Jeffrey Lord Calls Donald Trump 'The Martin Luther King of Healthcare'

Yesterday's 'New Day' on CNN hosted by Alisyn Camerota featured a panel made up of Jeffrey Lord and Symone Sanders. The segment went a bit off the rails when Lord called President Trump "the Martin LUTHER King of healthcare." Sanders, a Democratic activist, fired back, "Jeffrey, you do understand that Dr. King was marching for civil rights because people that looked like me were being beaten," she continued, "dogs were being sicked on them. Basic human rights were being withheld from these people merely because the color of their skin." Watch the clip below!

Alisyn Camerota is a television journalist. She has interviewed some of the world's most influential people from U.S. Presidents to top athletes and musicians. Some of her sit-down interviews include President George H.W. Bush, Hillary Clinton, Dallas Cowboy Terrell Owens and rocker Jon Bon Jovi.

Alisyn received praise for her tough but fair one-on-one interview with former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich (aka Blago) during which he asked when she was going to start being nice to him. Actor Hugh Jackman, on the other hand, said his sit-down with Alisyn was the most fun he's ever had during an interview. Alisyn has been featured in various profiles including the Boston Herald, Celebrity Parents, the New York Times and Entertainment Tonight.
