Trump Vows to ‘Never Give Up a Microphone’ to #BlackLivesMatter Protesters
Daily Caller ^ | 8/12/2015

Posted on 08/13/2015 3:03:11 AM PDT by Altura Ct.

Donald Trump said Tuesday that if Black Lives Matter protesters ever hijacked one of his campaign events and tried to take his microphone, he might have to fight them off personally.

Trump was asked during a press conference what he thought of Vermont U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders allowing two Black Lives Matter protesters to storm the stage during a campaign event in Seattle this weekend and block him from speaking.

Trump vowed that would never happen to him.

“I would never give up a microphone. I thought that was disgusting. That showed such weakness,” Trump said. “The way he was taken away by two young women. The microphone, they just took the whole place over. And the audience, which liked him, I mean, they were him. They’re saying ‘what’s going on, how can this happen?'”

“That will never happen with me,” Trump promised, adding, “I don’t know if I’ll do the fighting myself or if other people will.”

“But that was a disgrace,” he continued, adding that he “felt badly” for Sanders.

“But it showed that he’s weak. You know what, he’s getting the biggest crowds, and I’m getting the biggest crowds. We’re the two getting the crowds, but believe me that’s not going to happen to Trump.

After Trump said he doesn’t support a flat tax rate:

“I actually believe that people as they make more and more money, can pay a higher percentage… I want to cut taxes, but I want to simplify the tax code. I want to make it great for the middle class.”

Only the most naïve can support this and claim to be conservative.

He thinks those who make more should pay more. Is that why he goes to great lengths to avoid paying as much as possible? This isn’t rhetoric - he said it himself.

There isn’t much difference between Jeb and Bernie.

His proposal has tax rates that top out at 10% for the highest earners.

Only the most naïve can gla bla bla...

He might not support a flat tax but if he was president and was presented with a bill establishing a flat tax I believe he would sign it. Do the Republicans, who control both houses and will control them in 2017, have the guts to present him (or any Republican president) with that opportunity?

I tell you, I’ve never been a Trump fan, but his confrontational, “go to hell” approach to the Leftist media and political correctness has been refreshing.

I’m still with Cruz, but I’m enjoying the ride.

Bernie is honest about what he is.

Sander's toughness on illegal aliens is a complete lie.

He may be honest in admitting that he's a socialist, but as a socialist he is trained to be a complete liar. Here's his rating from NumbersUSA:

Jeb looked weak in the first debate.

It really doesn't matter that much how cerebral an individual is, there is a strength of personality. Bush does not have it.

Right on, Mr. Trump!

"...there is a strength of personality. Bush does not have it.

Exactly why Jeb has allowed himself to become a doormat for Mexico and illegal aliens.

Couldn't the fact that after marrying a Mexican and living in the US with her for 40 years, Spanish is still the primary language uses in his home [Link] tell us that? Talk about being colonized!
