Donald Trump Surrounded by Secret Service as Man Tries Rushing Stage

Secret Service agents needed to surround Donald Trump on stage during his rally in Ohio on Saturday as a man tried rushing the stage, only a day after he canceled an event over safety concerns.

Shortly after mocking a protester who was being escorted out of his event outside Dayton, four Secret Service agents jumped onto the stage and surrounded Trump. The man who tried rushing the stage was later arrested and charged with disorderly conduct and inducing panic, according to Dayton police.

"I was ready for him, but it's much easier if the cops do it, don’t we agree?" Trump said to the cheering crowd.

Trump earlier told the crowd the protests that forced him to postpone a rally in Chicago on Friday was a "planned attack" that "came out of nowhere."

4. "Chicago on Friday was a "planned attack" that "came out of nowhere.""

Of course it was a "planned attack", Donald. The students told you they would protest at your event if you did not move it off their campus. But, you can't have it both ways because you knew it was coming. It did not "come out of nowhere", dumb-ass!

6. Getting precisely what he wants. n/t

[BlueStater]

7. "I was ready for him"

Yeah, sure you were, Donny. You looked like you were about to jump out of your skin in the video.

[redkwamya]

16. new underwear needed for the Drumpster

He almost knocked the podium over.

[awoke_in_2003]

18. Yep...

looked like a scared little puppy, then, once security has him, he is all big and bad.

[Trust Buster]

8. I don't support anyone rushing the stage of any candidate.

9. +1

[dchill]

10. If those are Secret Service agents...

then I'm Bernie Sanders. Secret Service would have had him down on the floor and covered, or whisked away. Or both.

[Trust Buster]

11. Trump has Secret Service agents because he's the likely Republican nominee.

.

[dchill]

12. Yes. That doesn't mean that those guys were...

Secret Service.

[Trust Buster]

13. I'm pretty sure they were. Trump's personal security would be taking care of

general crowd control. The Secret Service casts a much tighter web around their client.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

19. Secret service evaluates threats quickly

If the guy had a gun or weapon, Trump would have been floored & covered & removed as you suggest.

Since no weapon was in evidence they got into position to be ready the instant one might be revealed.

[FarPoint]

21. Absolutely!!!!

I'm feeling a staged drama...

[Reter]

29. Hi Bernie!

I'm voting for you when the NY primary gets here!

[dchill]

31. You caught me!

[Yo_Mama]

34. Hi Bernie! I sent you money, keep up the good work!

Yes, those are Secret Service.

[jwirr]

14. Inducing panic? Is that another way of saying inciting? If

Trump continues his hate speech he is the one who should be arrested. He is not only in danger himself but he is endangering others.

[christx30]

17. I'd rather have the hate speech than

laws against it. Or violence to stop it. Because you never know when something you say will be called 'hate' by people you are opposed to.
"Ugh! Christians are so against marriage equality and reproductive rights."
"You're under arrest for disparaging a religion."

Let the asshole bigot say whatever he wants. Deride and refute him at every turn. Argue better than he and his supporters do. Get everyone you know to Vote, vote, VOTE!!!

[The Green Manalishi]

36. Agreed/

No one, ever, anywhere, should be prevented from speaking or otherwise communicating by violence or threat thereof.

people who would shout down or shut down anyone should be severely punished. Period.

[AC_Mem]

26. I'm so upset tonight I can't even eat

This awful excuse for a human being is going to create a situation where many many people are going to get hurt/killed. He is all but threatening war - when will someone stop this man from inciting violence in our country???

This is NOT world wide wrestling. This is NOT the apprentice. This is NOT the Donald reality show. This is someone running for the highest position of power in the United States of America and the leader of the free world and we are sitting by and watching one person single handedly destroy its safety. This is not democracy. This is an egotistical maniac who is power mad and who thinks, apparently, that this is all just a joke or a ratings bonanza.

I have studied NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) for years. He is using subliminal word crafting that is very obvious to anyone who knows about this type of conscious hypnosis (you tube has many videos of this type of hypnosis for persuasion and sales). It is very dangerous when used inappropriately and we are seeing the beginning of a situation that he will not be able to control before too long.

Does anyone notice that he has replaced "You're Fired" with "Get him outta here" ? This is his reality show. This is not about uniting our country, this is about creating attention to feed his massive ego. He is invoking Hitler and his followers are HAPPILY pledging for that photo opportunity that donny is looking for, where it looks like saluting Hitler. He is planting anchors, he is repeating his descriptive negative words (very very bad bad bad) because HE HAS NOTHING OF SUBSTANCE TO SAY, so he is planting hate and anger. Look at his audience! Besides the paid minorities he plants, how many do you really see in his entertainment events?

This is world wide wrestling. This is Apprentice Part II. This is The Truman Show, staring donniedump.

He is going to get people killed, either by civil war between our own countrymen, or by activating cells that will come into America and give us another 9/11. Someone better hold this man accountable, he is not the victim, he is the villain and there are laws in place that say what he is doing is not only dangerous to our country, it is ILLEGAL.

My God - I used to love DU but the petty fighting about Bernie and Hillary has me ready to leave after years here - people, these two are the only ones out there that speak with any kind of sense and leadership. Use your energy to support your candidate, but please understand, the one who is trying to destroy our country is this man and this is real and this is serious.

I'm not trying to get too dramatic, but this is truly light versus dark and the lower, hate fueled energy must be countered by light. We know what is right and good - it is time to stand up and Shine On. Volunteer and for God's Sake, VOTE. Write to your Congressman, Write to the President, and Write to the news outlets who are giving this idiot all the free publicity he could ever want - while he stands there and says they are corrupt liars!!!

Now is our time,

27. I don't think he is planting hate and anger. What he is doing

is encouraging what is already there after 40+ years of R and DLC failure.

If we take a look back at the rise of the Nazis we see Germany in a situation caused by a really poor settlement of WWI. They were extremely poor with no way to reach a better economy. They were angry at how they were being treated by the allied countries that had won the war and now controlled them.

Hitler tapped into that anger and fear and we know the rest of the story.

I honestly cannot understand how any man (think Trump) can forget this history and use its techniques again. I can understand wanting to be famous but like Hitler? Hitler was not famous - he was infamous.

[Yo_Mama]

35. No, just no. There's so much wrong with what you are advocating.

Throwing the Constitution out is not going to help us with anything.

Who is the fascist, really? Look in the mirror. If you really believe this, you are not a progressive.

[jwirr]

38. Wow, you are not the first to call me a fascist or a Nazi. I am

74 years old and a German American and went through the WWII era. Despite the fact that many of our community enlisted in the military - still we got the names.

I don't think that I was suggesting we throw out the Constitution. However, I seem to remember in the 60s there were laws enacted that made inciting hate crimes a criminal act. It was in regards to racial hatred - and I think they are still on the books.

Anyone know about this?

[FreedomRain]

15. Can you imagine being a Secret Service agent assigned to Trump?

To literally perhaps have to die for him?

Oh I know in his heart it wouldn't be for him, but for the traditions of the service, the good of democracy, and a host of general good reasons. Still, that would suck.

[ohnoyoudidnt]

23. I wouldn't jump in front of a bullet for that fucker.

Hell no. You can just fire me for standing there while it happened.

[mac56]

20. "Now someone please find my brown trousers."

[Turbineguy]

22. The Poles

attacked Hitler dontcha know?

[moondust]

24. Possibly staged.

Perhaps Drumpf operatives found some desperate-looking kid and offered him, I dunno, $3000 to jump the barricade and rush the stage. Maybe guaranteed that he wouldn't get hurt. That would help support Drumpf's narrative that he's not the culprit but the victim in all this.

[Reter]

30. Nope

It was Thomas Dimassimo, a hard-line Leftist, and he has a history of causing political trouble.

[The Green Manalishi]

37. Fucking useful idiot

We don't need another Marinus van der Lubbe.

I hate Trump. I hate people who would interrupt a speech even more. I don't care if it was Putin or Cruz or some other vile being, if they have the podium anybody interfering with their speech should be stopped, cold.

I will never hate any politician as much as I hate anyone who would censor anyone anywhere saying anyone for any reason.

[Raine]

25. Gee I'm suprised big brave Trump didn't "punch him in the face". nt

[Xipe Totec]

28. Feel the Brown, Donald, Feel the Brown. nt

[Vestigial_Sister]

32. It looked absolutely...

set up to me. Trumps reaction reminded me of a bad WWF wrestling match. Hell, I'd take $10K too if all I'd get charged with was a disorderly conduct.

[left-of-center2012]

33. He's a member of ISIS !

Heard Trump later (in clips on cable news) tell crowds in a speech he was giving that the man who rushed him
was a member of ISIS.
And that Trump was prepared to "take him on" when the cops stepped in.

[Eugene]

39. And he doubled down on the ISIS claim Sunday morning.

He saw in on the Internets. It must be even when others point out it's a hoax.
