A Fairborn man who attempted to get on the stage at Donald Trumps campaign rally in Vandalia said he didnt intend to harm the presidential candidate. He only wanted to send a message.
Thomas Dimassimo, 22, told police his actions were not spontaneous, according to a Dayton police report. He gave his keys to his girlfriend to take his car home before the rally, according to the report.
Im unafraid, Dimassimo said, during a CNN interview on Sunday. If I can be unafraid enough to go take his podium away from him, then we all can be unafraid enough to not let this man walk into the White House.
Dimassimo told police he planned to run onto the stage, take the microphone and yell, Donald Trump is a racist.
Dimassimo, using the Twitter handle @younglionking17, announced his plan on social media and said he was trying to snag the mic from Trump and plead his case in front of Trump supporters.
Dimassimo also denied he had any connection to ISIS during Sundays CNN interview.
I have no known ties to ISIS, Dimassimo said. Ive never been out of the country. I only speak English.
Trump used Twitter to broadcast a YouTube video of Dimassimo and accuse him of having ties to ISIS.
Dimassimo has been charged with disorderly conduct and inducing panic.
Secret Service agents reported Dimassimo grabbed a man and pulled him out of his way before he jumped the metal fence and ran toward the stage, according to the police report.
Secret Service agents stopped Dimassimo about four feet from the stage.

From what I’ve read here on FR, he committed a felony. Go for it. Make him understand that actions have consequences.
Then he can really learn about racism in prison. From the skinheads.
“The FASCIST scum who attacked Trump claimed he “has no ties to ISIS”, while this video is clearly shows him stomping on the American flag, showing his solidarity with radical Muslims. The video is used by ISIS, who play Muslim music.”
This guy is not a fascist, if anything he is a commie.
He is a Bernie supporter. Also, his parents are somewhat well to do as his Mommy is also a big wig in the Atlanta area Dem circles. She is something like a Director for the Transportation Department.
Now if Trump wants to go after them in some respect, I’m sure they are still supporting this dud in paying for his school and also his health insurance, so he is still a dependent.
Typically, in Greece, Italy and Spain....a martyr ends up dead....poems written of the guy and his feat of death....and a statue gets put up on some park place.
I just don’t see Tommy deserving of martyr status. Maybe he ought to take some history classes and note the price paid for such behavior.
When I see that punks face I think of my baseball bat. How does this cretin not get charged with attempted assault? Fluxin outrageous.
So we’re allowed to rush at any presidential candidate and we’ll get interviewed and not go to jail?
“. . no KNOWN ties to ISIS . . “
sending the message was harm
off with his head
This reminds me of the son of a certain congresscreature from Wisconsin, Gwen Moore, who was arrested for slashing the tires of vans that had been rented by the Republican Party in 2004. For that, he served 4 months in prison. For reference, the son's name has been variously reported as Sowande Ajumoke Omokunde, Sowande Supreme Omokunde, or Supreme Solar Allah.
We can only hope that Dimassimo spends some time in jail as well, but I'm sure the Obama machine will prevent that.
It is not planned disruptions and threats against Mr. Trump.. it's reaction to that offensive video posted on the Internet . . . .
The media will play him as the wounded party being persecuted by Trump for a minor infraction after having been egged on by Trump’s scary rhetoric. I’ve been saying Trumps line should be that speech NEVER justifies violent reaction. If it did every person that attacks another person could get off by saying they provoked me with words.
Here’s hoping Trump can win with yuuuge results tomorrow. The LSM and DC elites can go pee in the wind along with the mindless morons of the left.
There's an interesting qualifier. He didn't say "I have no ties to ISIS", but "no known ties". He supports ISIS.
If Trump can take FLA and NC tomorrow Ted will never be able to catch him, even allowing for Ted to win MO and IL. OH is up for grabs too, but it would be nothing short of a miracle for Ted to all of a sudden surge enough to sweep the midwest states tomorrow.
I have no *known* ties to ISIS?
No *known* ties?
I don’t think the accusation was if he had ties to ISIS, but is he was sympathetic of ISIS, a fan of ISIS
Maybe one of these ladies were disrupting the same rally to create distraction so he could jump the fence. You could see him look around the audience before jumping
Thomas Dimassimo, 22
DumbassIMO.
Damn but that area has really gone to hell in the 40 years since I left there.
I see the “protester” is from Fairborn. Interesting.
Biggest and maybe the only industry in Fairborn is WPAFB.
He was charged with disorderly conduct and inducing panic and released on bail.
