I predicted this scenario exactly when some of Trump’s loopiest supporters were supporting some old guy punching a black guy at a Trump rally. They thought I implied that Trump might be wrong to egg on the violence, which is of course not possible in some people’s eyes.
Punching a protestor for having an opinion will only lead to more protestors.
The people who cheered the uncalled for punch yesterday can cheer this too, I guess.
You wanted violence - it's coming and it's going to be ugly. This will be every rally for Trump going forward. It's not good.

These animals need to be arrested and, where appropriate, deported. But those idiots who thought it right to punch people for verbally protesting Trump should follow them out the door.

Oh, really? You have the right to “verbally protest” all you want. But you DON’T have the “right” to shout obscenities and threats in my face or in my kid’s face at the top of your lungs. You do that and i’ll knock your ******* teeth down your throat.
I lived through a lot of this during 2011 with Scott Walker and how the left tried to shut down the state Capitol and intimidate lawmakers.
Best thing Walker did was NOT respond back with tough talk and NOT have his supporters escalate things.
In the end, by almost ignoring it, it made the left even crazier. They then overplayed their hand. The public then sided strongly with Walker and the GOP.
Let the left and Mexicans overplay their hand here. Be patient. Trump got more mileage from some nice people being beat up last night than he’d get if those folks started street fighting with the protestors.
