Watch Donald Trump Single Out A Protester And Incite The Crowd To Attack Him
http://reverbpress.com/politics/watch-donald-trump-single-out-a-protester-and-incite-the-crowd-to-attack-him/In what has become the norm for Donald Trump rallies, we have yet another instance of Trump fans violently suppressing free speech. However this time, we might have the first real video evidence of a Donald Trump protester being attacked after the Republican candidate himself singled out the individual. The clip certainly demonstrates the hateful, intolerant atmosphere that Trump himself has no problem stirring up — despite the ugly consequences.
According to the Intercept, a white protester was assaulted at a Tuscon, Arizona rally by a black Trump supporter. While that’s mind-bendy in its own right, what the Intercept rightly drew attention to was the little-discussed aspect of this entire situation....
The implication is unmistakable; Trump focused his anger and attention on protesters peacefully exiting the rally and then BOOM! We had a violent confrontation. Trump could have chosen not to bait his violence-prone supporters. Trump could have stayed on message and simply let these people leave his rally.
Instead, Donald Trump actively engaged in the art of inciting violence. It doesn’t matter if Donald Trump didn’t literally say, “You see that guy? Kick his ass!”
