Since I was at lunch about 2 weeks ago in Trump Tower (the grill) where the Donald was holding court, I can assure you that his employees like him very much and were encouraging the tourists who were taking selfies that they should all vote for him.

But do they have a right to protest?

Well, since neither of us were there to witness what really happened, I can’t say one way or the other. Is anyone filing charges? If not, then I would think the protestor was at fault for whatever reason. After all, Trump has deep pockets.

Protester grabbed the security dude from behind.

I would have bashed his skull in.

You’re correct about the name - but my point remains the same.

“So what kind of deportation people would he hire?”

Well, this guy is a decorated ex-New York cop so I would guess the people that can get the job done. Moral of the story, don’t grab a member of a presidential candidate’s security detail from behind. And before you spout off, I don’t give a good damn about that illegal’s sign. Doesn’t have a right to be here in the first place. And yes, his buddies were in KKK outfits at the time.

And this is exactly what will happen when the black lives matter crowd steps up to the plate too. Get your fainting couch ready.

Kim Davis didn’t seem to get any love from The Donald, and it looks like this protestor had his personal property seized by someone who doesn’t seem to give out any love, either.

Here is the protest and sign in question.

The sign was blocking the entrance to the hotel, the guard LEGALLY walked through it, after which he was attack by the protester.

Trump’s people said he is going to file charges (at least that is what was reported in the article).

Personally, I think Trump needs to develop a thicker skin. He’ll have more time to get his message out (and convince people like me that he is a real conservative) if he ignores protesters; instructs his people to ignore protesters (excepting unprovoked physical assaults, of course); and if he stops getting in to twitter wars with pinhead “journalists”.

That kind of crap turns me off no matter how much I like a candidate’s message.

Kim is one of the little people for whom The Donald really doesnt give a rip.

many of these protesters were members of the KKK....I don’t think so. Protesters DRESSED as such, but they were not KKK.

Okay, maybe I misunderstood the situation.

Sounds like Trump’s guard might have overstepped the law and committed an assault. But I’m guessing they are trained pretty well, and I’ll wait for the investigation if there is one.

Sorry but illegal aliens cause a lot of damage in this country. This one gets no sympathy from me.

I don't support everything my candidate and his team do. I find that I'm a lot more honest with myself and others about his shortcomings and other candidates pluses as well, than other candidates supporters seem to be.

Here are my comments about that street fracas. LINK

As for Kim Davis, I think Trump is a realist. I would like him to be more like Cruz on this, but after all the hoopla, I don't think Ted is going to accomplish much tangible for her. We'll see.

if he ignores protesters; instructs his people to ignore protesters

Yeah, Trump should instruct his people to ignore protesters who assault them.

Concern troll is concerned.
