Trump Supporters Raise Right Hands to Pledge Support. The Photos Are Terrifying.
On Saturday, Donald Trump led a rally of supporters to raise their right hands and take a pledge that they would vote for him. Lets do a pledge. Who likes me in this room? Trump asked the crowd at a rally in Orlando, Florida, which was frequently interrupted by protesters. Ive never done this before. Can I have a pledge? A swearing? Raise your right hand.
The Republican presidential front-runner then proceeded to get the audience to repeat after him. I do solemnly swear that I, no matter how I feel, no matter what the conditions, if there are hurricanes or whatever, will vote on or before the 12th for Donald J. Trump for president.
Thank you. Now I know. Dont forget you all raised your hands. You swore. Bad things happen if you dont live up to what you just did, Trump said before continuing with his speech.

Now if that doesn't make you all feel warm and fuzzy, I don't know what does.

He definitely knows how to pull the strings and get the puppets to dance.

Just click on the big red Raw Story top upper left.
Scroll down front page a little ways and the article is there.
It has his photo and mention of the Apprentice show.

The only person to calm this down is Jesse Owens at this point.

He surely knows the implication of this. He just wants to see how stupid they really are. Evidently, pretty fucking stupid.
