Multiple videos show a protester at a Donald Trump rally in North Carolina being sucker-punched by a Trump supporter.
The videos, which appeared on social media early Thursday and are shot from different perspectives, show an African American with long hair wearing a white T-shirt leaving the Trump rally as the audience boos. He is being led out of the rally by men in uniforms that read Sheriffs Office. The man extends a middle finger to the audience on his way out.
boo f*****g hoo.
Hey media, where was your outrage when this happened?
Looks like the poor old dude almost broke his hand (or wrist). Too bad he wasn’t 28 instead of 78.
Trump should remember this man and pardon him once he becomes President.
I realize that being flipped off is antagonistic, but I propose to my fellow Supervillains for Trump Committee that we otracize the man in the pink shirt along with those who cheered him.
Supervillains for Trump should not sucker punch anyone, even if we are flipped off. Further, Supervillains for Trump would NEVER wear a pink shirt.
I think he used his elbow actually.
Now this is more along the lines of ‘brownshirt’. Although the old fellow who punched him was wearing a pink shirt.
Pink?
Cannot believe the way the Media is covering this!
Oh wait, Yes I can.
I was 100% Cruz, then 90%, then 50%
Now I am 100% TRUMP
F’n MSM needs a good kick in the teeth
Yep, countless “knock out game” assaults, perpetrated exclusively by so-called “people of color,” go unreported outside of local media. Brutal attacks, leaving most victims hospitalized.
But this guy’s lame sucker punch (in which he didn’t even follow through) will be replayed over and over again for the duration of campaign season. And Trump’s “rhetoric” will be blamed.
Trump did mention beating the Clinton out of tomato throwers at rallies, but a lot of democrats will flip off patriots. So I dunno, FRiend. You sure the nation wants to see that much rowdiness?
“Trump should remember this man and pardon him once he becomes President.”
Unless the man is convicted on federal charges, President Trump will not have the power to issue a pardon.
Me too. In fact I didn’t know who Trump was til last year
I was 100% Cruz, then 90%, then 50%
Now I am 100% TRUMP
He was disturbing a rally and being escorted out for some reason. I don’t know the full context yet.
But Trump critics now have their ‘brown shirt’ moment.
I don’t hold Trump responsible for some random violent supporter.
Depending on what the protester was protesting he may have even had it coming.
I know the double standard is harsh.
I bet Glenn Beck and Thomas Sowell and Jeb Bush would want to kiss that rally disrupter for flipping off the crowd.
“See? Brown shirts! Yeah, Brown shirts!”
A lot depends on how Trump reacts to this.
I don’t think simple assault is a federal crime.
Trump should withhold federal funds from that state until the governor pardons the man. And, if push comes to shove, send troops to occupy that state and turn it into a US territory without a vote.
It’s up to Trump though, isn’t it? He might cover the man’s legal fees and back him up. He might simply laugh. Or, he might condemn the rowdy man in pink.
And a lot depends on exactly what the rally disrupter did.
