Yet another rally for GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump has descended into violence. CNN reporter Jeremy Diamond posted video to Twitter of a black protester being shoved down, punched, kicked and tackled during a political rally for Trump in Birmingham, Alabama — a city with a long history of racial violence. In the video, Trump can be heard continuing to speak in the background, then can be heard saying, “Get him the hell out of here,” as the crowd jeers. According to Diamond, the protester seemed to be saying, “Black lives matter,” to which at least one Trump supporter responded, “All lives matter.” He was tackled to the ground, punched and kicked by white Trump supporters. http://www.rawstory.com/2015/11/get...n-black-protester-who-gets-beaten-and-kicked/
Donald Trump: Black protester at my rally was ‘disgusting’ and ‘maybe he should have been roughed up’ Speaking with the hosts on Fox News Sunday, Trump called the protester “obnoxious” while at the same time questioning whether he was “roughed up.” “The man that you say was, I don’t know, you said roughed up — he was so obnoxious and screaming,” Trump told host Ed Henry. “I had 10,000 screaming people in the room yesterday. Ten thousand people and this guy started screaming by himself, and I don’t know. Roughed up? Maybe he should have been roughed up. Because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing.” “This was not handled the way Bernie Sanders handled his problem, I will tell you that.” http://www.rawstory.com/2015/11/don...ing-and-maybe-he-should-have-been-roughed-up/
Donald Trump Again Insists He Saw Celebrations in New Jersey on Sept. 11 It’s a scene that, as Donald J. Trump describes it, would seem to be seared into the American consciousness. “I watched when the World Trade Center came tumbling down,” he told a crowd in Birmingham, Ala., on Saturday. “And I watched in Jersey City, New Jersey, where thousands and thousands of people were cheering as that building was coming down.” No news reports exist of people cheering in the streets, and both police officials and the mayor of Jersey City have said that it did not happen. An Internet rumor about people cheering in the streets, which said it was in Paterson, not Jersey City, has been denied numerous times by city and police officials. But when pressed on Sunday by George Stephanopoulos in an interview, Mr. Trump emphatically stuck to his story. “It did happen, I saw it,” Mr. Trump said. “It was on television. I saw it.” When reminded that police said it didn’t happen, Mr. Trump again insisted that he saw it. “I know it might be not politically correct for you to talk about it, but there were people cheering as that building came down — as those buildings came down. And that tells you something,” he said. “It was well covered at the time, George.” Mr. Trump on Sunday reiterated many of his emphatic, if controversial, positions in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Paris. He said he would not unequivocally rule out a database on all Muslims and that he wants a database of refugees and surveillance of certain mosques. He also said that he would bring back interrogation techniques like waterboarding. “We have to be strong,” he said in response to Mr. Stephanopoulos’s question. “You know, they don’t use waterboarding over there; they use chopping off people’s heads. They use drowning people.” When asked if that meant he would bring back waterboarding, Mr. Trump said, “We have to — I would bring it back, yes. I would bring it back. I think waterboarding is peanuts compared to what they’d do to us.” http://www.nytimes.com/politics/fir...he-saw-celebrations-in-new-jersey-on-sept-11/
Trump is maybe one step removed from calling Black Lives Matter "uppity n***ers". If he actually did, a quarter of the country would all spontaneously jizz.
I watched that video last night and if anyone wants to say they know exactly what happened in it they are either the smartest person on Earth or a liar.
