Donald Trump On Protester: "I'd Like To Punch Him In The Face"
CNN ^ | 02/23/2016 | Jeremy Diamond

Posted on 02/22/2016 9:56:41 PM PST by goldstategop

Donald Trump said he wanted to punch a protester "in the face" after a man was escorted out of Trump's rally Monday night.

"I'd like to punch him in the face," Trump said, remarking that a man disrupting his rally was escorted out with a smile on his face. "He's smiling, having a good time."

Trump also claimed the protester was "nasty as hell" and accused the man of trying to punch the security officers forcing him out of the rally, though the man did not appear to be fighting off those officers.

"In the old days," Trump added, protesters would be "carried out on stretchers."

"We're not allowed to push back anymore," Trump said.

If we don’t find it within ourselves to be tough, and rough, with liberals then they will be 1000x more violent against us and our children. I’d be happy to let the crowd turn the cameras away for a minute and have their way with this guy and just write it off as “horse play”.

Trump will never be presidential. It is not in his character, particularly at this age.

I expect a leader to defend his position, supporters and party which Bush did not do for 8 years. I expect our elected officials to defend the people that elected them Did not happen for another 8 years. I am fed up with the self serving weasels that have ruined this country. It is time to kick ass and take names before the entire country is lost.

Trump is Mussolini.
Trump is Stalin.
Trump is Hitler.
Trump is the Antichrist.

I’ve seen them all, and I expect to see them all again on a regular basis.

It was obvious that would happen sooner or later.

In the old days... Trump dodged the draft.

It's either sad or pathetic that people repeat that lie. Which one are you?

And when the dems try to use that I think it very well may backfire on them. Remember when the beast went after Trump calling him a sexist? Trump came back by taking her knees out and stopped her cold. That’s a fighter, something Romney,mccain,bush,rubio and the rest can only read about.

no we don’t

Those who believe the moral folks in society can quell the bad folks if given the opportunity do feel that way - it is liberal/progressives that made it illegal to push back with the same force the bad guys used on the rest of us.

Go Trump! Punch that asshat in the nose!

You cruzers really are something else. If it was your guy saying what Trump said, you’d be hoopin and hollerin. Perhaps you should go to a Trump rally and have a good time instead of listening to a dead pan preaching with just a few hundred people. Come on, get some excitement in your life.

Also it hasn’t escaped my notice that when Cruz is shaking hands his eyes are on the next person. He is just as much BS as shillery. Trump has more compassion in his little toe than Cruz has in his entire body.

If by some miracle Cruz does take the nomination, it will be snowing in July; but I will support him over the rats. Will you do the same when Trump wins?

What could he do with the resources and force of the US Government at his back instead of just a little cash?


He would do the right thing for the very reasons you condemn him. His ego would not permit him to let down the American people. I have absolutely no problem with a man with an ego - as long as he has the accomplishments to back it up. Trump will surprise you. Cruz will lie to you.

People here CLAIMED that they wanted a candidate that would FIGHT BACK (unlike Bush).

Now they have it, and people here now complain that he’s the next Hitler. In my case, if I did work for Rubio, they couldn’t pay me enough to say something like that...but then I’d never work for Rubio.

You are both.

Photos show Donald Trump in military uniform, with athletic teams before dodging the Vietnam draft with ‘bull---t’ injury

That only works for one person. For all else, it’s just a messy-antic [sic] complex.

Calling it draft dodging is a lie. You are a liar. That’s sad and pathetic.

I have no respect for dishonest trash.

He’s lived long enough to see what leftists are capable of and that you have to learn to stand up for yourself when they come at you.
