Donald Trump Rushed Off Stage in Nevada; Cause Unclear

[MowCowWhoHow III]

Source: NBC News

Donald Trump was rushed off stage at a rally in Reno, Nevada, Saturday night.

It was not immediately clear what prompted Secret Service agents to take the Republican presidential nominee off the stage. Trump was peering into the crowd just before his speech was interrupted, and law enforcement agents then made their way into the crowd towards what appeared to be some sort of disruption.

Trump returned to the stage roughly five minutes later, thanking the Secret Service agents.

"Nobody said it was going to be easy for us, but we will never be stopped," Trump said upon returning.

91. Trump instructed crowd "Take him out" and they started beating a guy to death. Cops saved him.

Police intervened and saved the guy. Then they held him in a bathroom for two hours, keeping him away from the press and reporters.

Just imagine how much safer the situation would've been, if everybody in the room had a gun.

2. Is he staging a Bob Roberts moment?

.

[forest444]

19. That's what I was thinking.

Trump doesn't look surprised in the least.

We know this because we've already seen how he reacts when he really is startled:

[YOHABLO]

45. Hmm .. you never know with this crowd. Could have been staged. Who knows.

[forest444]

68. True.

My skeptical side - plus the fact that you just can't put anything past King Con - makes me suspect this was in fact a stunt.

On the other hand, someone really could have gotten hurt - and not just Trump. I'm glad everyone's ok.

[kebob]

51. You Have a Suspicious Mind

Just like me: of course this was staged! Loser knows he's losing.

[forest444]

65. Hey, what can I say.

The minute I read the headline, I thought 'Bob Roberts'. I wouldn't put anything past Trump at this point frankly.

[MsMAC]

58. Too funny! I'm literally ROFL so thanks!

[forest444]

66. Why, thank you.

I'm here all week.

[Megahurtz]

81. LOL

that is so funny!

[oberliner]

3. He's back on stage reading from the teleprompter

Was a little scuffle in the front, but was quickly ended.

[Plucketeer]

7. Anyone know....

if Donald Dunce has his own bodyguards? Not SS, but personal bodyguards. I'm thinkin' he'd better hire some once this race is over and he's just another non-taxpayin' citizen. Beyond losing the election, I wish him no bodily harm, but I'd bet there's crazies who will.

[WheelWalker]

48. You should give a trigger warning

when you use "SS" in reference to a fascist's bodyguards

[cstanleytech]

18. Maybe a massive teleprompter failure and to keep him from making more of an ass of himself they

rushed to get him off stage until it was repaired?

[shenmue]

54. Ha

[Rose Siding]

20. Did he address it at all?

[oberliner]

86. He talked about all the tough guys in the front

And said something about how veterans would've beaten up the evildoers or something like that.

[Rose Siding]

88. They're so scared of brown people under their beds they tackled a guy with a sign

They are just lucky it was a gun free zone or they all would have been shooting each other.

[oberliner]

89. Good point about the guns

Lord knows what might have happened if everyone had a weapon on them.

[cilla4progress]

4. What a dough ass

Meanwhile Hillary was standing in the pelting rain in Miami imploring people to vote for her.

[Plucketeer]

10. I'll go along with you to a point

But you can bet if the Secret Service had perceived a threat to Hillary, they'd have packed her off the podium in a heartbeat.

[NastyWomen]

5. It chaffes my ass that we are paying secret service

To protect a Russian puppet

[MsMAC]

62. Thank you!

I totally agree!

[FarPoint]

6. My opinion....

This is probably a tRump " staged" crowd disruption for publicity.... he's tanking so, he will pull a fast one on the crowd.

[mobeau69]

14. BINGO

I hope that guy got his money up front.

[LiberalFighter]

15. Agree likely staged.

[adigal]

60. Well if it was, it failed. He looks weak and old being rushed off the stage.

He can barely even hurry to keep up with them as they take him off the stage.

[onehandle]

8. I saw it. It was nothing. He came back out a few minutes later after he changed his diapers.

If it had been a gun, the SS would not have let him return.

[sarae]

32. lol @ after he changed his diapers

[DK504]

36. Funny how this happened 3 days before the election.

Surprise, surprise, surprise....it was nothing.

Hillary faces these asshats down and the shit gibbon pees his pants and runs away.

[PSPS]

39. Were there commercials during his absence? "More after this word from our sponsor."

[Rose Siding]

11. Here's video. Looks like a stamina issue to me

https://twitter.com/ditzkoff/status/795069623284756481

[FarPoint]

13. Yes!!!

Absolutely.....

[pkdu]

42. How rude of the SS to interrupt him mid-piss nt

[Tactical Peek]

12. Youtubed

[LiberalFighter]

17. It don't look right. His expression was strange right before they took him.

[Merlot]

21. It does look odd. He looks very disoriented

Maybe he really was afraid?

[lib87]

16. I'm Suspicious

Why come back out after an 'assassination attempt'? Doesn't sound safe.

Probably just trump crazies getting crazy with each other in the crowd.

[NobodyHere]

23. Well Teddy Roosevelt gave a speech after getting shot.

Then again Trump is no Teddy (other than the racist bits)

[lib87]

84. True!

Teddy is a much tougher character than Trump too.

...and paid his taxes lol

[EL34x4]

50. Because the "assassin" turned out to be a Trump supporter

armed with a lethal "Trump/Pence '16" sign (that another Trump supporter mistakenly thought was a gun).

[Rose Siding]

61. They live their lives in fear

[LiberalFighter]

22. It was probably someone exposing themselves and Trump was trying to get a better look.

It had to be a guy because of Trump's expression.

[KALD]

24. Is that the National Guard?

Is it normal for them to be at a politico rally?

[BooScout]

27. Had this been a credible threat...

The Secret Service would have never let him back out on the stage. They would have to assess whether this person was acting alone or not.

I smell a big fat over-reaction or a big fat fake stunt. I lean towards a stunt, because it looks like Trump seemed to be expecting something.

[MsMAC]

64. I agree! My daughter and I were talking about this and I thought

if there were a "credible" threat, he would have been removed from the arena! He was back on in about 5 mins - some threat! This happened in Reno and I read that he's losing badly in Nevada due to the volume of Hispanic voters! YAY for that!

[bucolic_frolic]

28. False Flag

They screen his rallies really well, as we know, only supporters get in,
so how did this happen? Gotta be fake, a plant.

And why shouldn't we be cynical of the motives of the "rigged election"
candidate? Just using his own medicine.

[George II]

43. I've been to two rallies where Bill Clinton appeared, were were patted down for both of them....

...and couldn't leave until he was out of the building.

[Bradical79]

83. Don't need a planted agitator

Just need someone to yell "gun" when someone nearby moves their hands up. Then you just have a confused rally goer getting tackled by police creating a dramatic moment.

[Sancho]

30. Joe Biden showed up and wanted to fight??

[BumRushDaShow]

34. If that had happened

the coward would have run off the stage himself!

[47of74]

35. Or if President Obama had shown up....

...the Screaming Carrot Demon would probably be half way to Florida within ten seconds of the President's arrival.

[BumRushDaShow]

40. !!!!

Bigly!

[liberal N proud]

33. This is a stunt!

It reeks of Trump fraud.

[mitty14u2]

41. SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE! Happened exactly at 9:00 ct perfect timing for live Fox, CNN, MSNBC

Happened exactly at 9:00 perfect timing for live Fox, CNN, MSNBC other news stations Special Reports and SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE!

[George II]

44. No, it happened a little before 9:00 Eastern time.

[True Dough]

49. CNN reported that there was no gun, according to witnesses

And the CNN political analyst panel did note how Trump was much more composed after the incident than during the primaries. Instead of aggressive talk and inciting violence like he has in the past, Drumpf gave a rah-rah "Nobody said this was going to be easy" and "They can't stop us" speech. So maybe it was staged in an effort to make him sound more presidential.

Ugh! Either way, he's such a turd.

[MADem]

53. Maybe he gave them the secret "I have to poop-NOW!!!!!" signal...? nt

[napi21]

55. There's another post on DU that said "someone in the crowd yelled GUN,

and that's what the SS responded to

[4 more years]

56. Breaking news.

Trump has to take a dump. Like his campaign

[FailureToCommunicate]

63. Shouting FIRE in a crowded theatre. Whoever yelled "gun!" is the same type that call police to

come shoot an innocent black kid time and time again.

[moosewhisperer]

70. video surfaces...

...of secret service agents grabbing a pussy

[mitty14u2]

71. I was surprised at all the police in riot gear ready for what?

The guy put up a sign saying Republicans against Trump and some clown yells GUN, WTF!

[krepitch]

77. Intent?

Maybe the clown had read the sign and knew exactly what would happen to the guy if he yelled "gun."

[pansypoo53219]

72. fire at the reichstadt(sp).

74. I think it was staged

[Hissyspit]

75. CAUSE: Stupid Trump Supporters Panic Over Nothing Maybe Possible Gun Suddenly Don't Want Guns

in a room full of stupid hypocrites.

[elmac]

78. Its been reported that

someone in the crowd saw another attendee reach around his back and toward his waistband. The first person shouted "Gun!" several times, sparking panic right in front of the stage where Trump was speaking. Sniffles returned shortly after with what looked like brown stains on his pants.

[Ccarmona]

79. My Mother

Always told me to have an extra pair of clean underpants, cause you never know.

[Turbineguy]

80. A follower having an

epiphany?

[Lottie5]

82. I shot a man in Reno,

Where's Johnny Cash?

[liberalhistorian]

85. The "cause" is likely

a "Reichstag" attempt, a last-ditch effort to whip up more sympathy and support. Fake, fake, FAKE.

[GreydeeThos]

87. Trump was going off script again

His handlers had to stop it before he did more damage

[SidDithers]

90. Huh...
