Trump Supporter Who Punched Protester Says 'We Might Have To Kill Him Next Time'
Quoted Text
Donald Trump supporter, 78-year-old John McGraw, was unrepentant.
When asked if he liked the rally, he said: “You bet I liked it. Knocking the hell out of that big mouth.”
And when asked why he punched the protester, he said: "Number one, we don’t know if he’s ISIS. We don’t know who he is, but we know he’s not acting like an American, cussing me... If he wants it laid out, I laid it out." He added: “Yes, he deserved it. The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We don’t know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization.”

It's clear, when the GOP candidates discuss "ISSUES", Donald Trump falls on his face. When the debate is name calling, Trump is a master.

“When they learn more about Donald Trump’s record, they discover he’s been doing everything they’re angry about. He is Washington. Donald Trump is the system.”

At its core, Donald Trump's campaign is about race -- which is why this is about far more than politics and partisanship for many of us religious leaders. When Cokie Roberts asked Trump if he was proud of the growing reports about white schoolchildren verbally attacking students of color and telling them they will soon have a wall built against them to keep them out of America, Trump reacted by saying it was a "nasty" question. No, it was one of the few good questions from journalists that morning.
Donald Trump is the race candidate, projecting white nationalism and xenophobia, appealing to fear and resentment, and always blaming people of other races for the problems of low-income white people. There is a long history of that in the United States, recently exemplified again by the KKK and other white supremacists coming into the electoral conversation and Trump's unwillingness to be quick and clear about his rejection of racial politics.

“Mr. Trump and the Republican leaders who support him and his hate-filled rhetoric should be on notice after tonight’s events. These protests are a direct result of the violence that has occurred at Trump rallies and that has been encouraged by Trump himself from the stage. Our country is better than the shameful, dangerous, and bigoted rhetoric that has been the hallmark of the Trump campaign. To all of those who took to the streets of Chicago, we say thank you for standing up and saying enough is enough. To Donald Trump, and the GOP, we say, welcome to the general election. Trump and those who peddle hate and incite violence have no place in our politics and most certainly do not belong in the White House." (Moveon.org)”

Would the liberal Move On say the same thing if thugs stormed Hillary's rally and threatened her with violence?
Yea... I remember Hillary saying that she wanted to "punch a protester in the face". Oh... Hillary didn't say that? Donald Trump did?
So Hillary must have said that protesters should be carried out on a stretcher. She didn't? Oh... Trump said that.
How about telling the crowd to go ahead... punch that protester... I'll pay your court costs. Yea. I know. The Donald was the one inciting the riot. Not Hillary.

"I think a campaign bears responsibility for creating an environment, when the candidate urges supporters to engage in physical violence to punch people in the face," SEN TED CRUZ
"I should point out there isn’t violence at my events," MARCO RUBIO said. "There isn’t violence at Ted’s events. There isn’t violence at a Kasich event. There isn’t violence at a Clinton event."
"There is only one presidential candidate who has violence at their events. And I do think Donald needs to realize and take responsibility for the fact that some of the rhetoric he has used could be contributing to this environment that is growing increasingly disturbing for a number of Americans."
"We don't want to have violence at any rally,” KASICH answered. "We don't have them at our rallies, but I just can't comment on what the heck has happened at his rallies. I've never been to one, don't expect to be going.”
