If you beat up a protester at Trumps rally, hell cover your legal fees.After receiving a notice from his security that someone might be planning to throw tomatoes at him (again), Trump told his supporters to knock the crap out of them I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees. The crowd vociferously cheered him on.
This isnt the first time Trump has condoned violencelast year he told Fox News that a Black Lives Matter activist who got attacked at his rally should have been roughed up. Say what you will about George W. Bush, but when confronted with a projectile all he did was duck.

Trump staff have to exist in a universe of alternative facts lest their heads explode due to the hypocrisy.
