During an interview with Fox and Friends Thursday morning, President Donald Trump slammed former Attorney General Eric Holder for saying leftists should "kick" Republicans.
"He better be careful what he's wishing for, that I can tell you. That's a disgusting statement for him to make. For him to make a statement like that is a very dangerous statement," Trump said. "They better be careful with the rhetoric because it's very dangerous what Holder said. Holder was held in contempt of Congress. Holder went after Christians. He went after our great evangelicals. He went after our tea party people, you know that, the IRS just settled that case."
"You know, they talk about us. We are exactly the opposite," he continued. "My rallies are really calm and well run and packed with people. We don't have problems at my rallies...They [leftists] used to send in paid protestors."
Trump also addressed rumors of the former Attorney General running for President in 2020 and said he believes Holder would be "gobbled up" in a primary.

As far as other 2020 challengers, Trump said he likes what he sees so far and looks forward to Democrats going after each other.

Holder being held in contempt of congress shows how meaningless that action is.
Thank you, Mr. President for saying what needed to be said.
Holder should be clear, the majority of Americans were disgusted by what he said, and consider it very irresponsible. I haven’t seen any reporter with the nerve to confront Eric Holder on this topic just yet. Maybe now they will find the courage.
I love our good President Trump.
Never. If ANY reported confronted Holder they would lose their job because, as we all know, confronting any AA is RACIST!
Yes, but Holder’s stepped into an arena where he can’t win.
He’s just not smart enough to realize it, yet.
Holder...another post turtle
“I love our good President Trump.”

You’re right. Holder has a real thug mentality and people like him cannot portray themselves otherwise.
I hear Holder received the endorsement from the International Federation of Gunrunners for his potential presidential run.
Thank God for Pres. Trump. Finally one with a spine.
Our side has all the productive and tax paying people.
Your side has the people who ruminate on deciding what gender they'll be today.
Who do you think would win a kicking contest Eric?
Geeze, I like Trump better every day!
He says what NO other elected Republican will say, certainly Jeb, McCain, Romney nor GWB.
All Fake Christians.
FISA court Holder - making terroristic threats.
completely correct...Holder’s racism and race baiting is okay in their eyes...
If you are going to take a shot at the King - you had better not miss.
The consequences are pretty brutal.
Things are not necessarily better even if you do get in a kill shot.
John Wilkes Booth found that out the hard way.
Fast and Furious Holder should be hiding out somewhere with his trap shut. How much blood does Fast and Furious Holder, Zero, and Hitlery already have on their hands? Then there’s the terrorism Zero and Vietnam Kerry funded via their Iran terrorism deal.
Don't forget the guns and the skill to use them properly and many are veterans who know how to "army", not just "mob".
