Use a man. And manhandle them...
These people are anarchists. They are not going to obey “rules”.
No, just follow the regular procedures. A protest zone is always a good idea, but what they need is what virtually all campaigns have, which is security that restricts entrance, searches people to make sure they have no prohibited items (such as campaign literature from other campaigns, banners, etc.), and an efficient off-duty police security force to remove people who have slipped in and start to disrupt the proceedings.
This is standard at all campaigns; I worked for GWB in Florida, and I saw it in place there, and the Dems had the same thing. Either Trump’s campaign managers are idiots, or he believes permitting these attacks will get him more publicity and more supporters.
That is only effective if the democrats are being protested. You forgot one key element. Conservative/Republican protesters are law abiding citizens.
The disruptors have been infiltrating the events. A little more discretion (read: profiling) needs to be done to winnow out the troublemakers.

A large “L” tattooed on the forehead should work.
Bingo!
Awww, mom. Do I hafta?
Does it matter how protesters are handled?
We’ll be accused of bullying, harassment, violence and stealing their rights no matter how civil, polite or nice we are.
You’d be astonished what goes on in Iowa and NH. If you don’t meet them half a dozen times, they are not trying very hard.
The answer is actually arresting those who are infringing on the rights of others. That means escorting protesters to a waiting police bus outside the venue rather than simply outside, for one thing. Even if the processing isn't anything further than taking their picture and recording their identification, it certainly beats the walk outside that was seen repeatedly in Kansas City.
And it means prosecuting those who conspire to impinge the freedom of others (AnswerChicago and MoveOn.org who set out an organized shutdown of the event.)
But the point about setting out the limits and decorum is good and then adding that anyone who does not abide by these rules will be trespassing and told to leave and if they do not leave then they will be arrested. Trespassing is only a misdemeanor but we have to start somewhere.
You’re right - good plan. Allow them to protest but NOT in the arena...
Don’t the Trump rallys have a protest zone? Pretty sure they do....
It’s time to focus on MoveOn.org , it’s organizers , it’s main activist coordinators , it’s $ sponsors . Infiltrate the organization . These are people , they live in locations that can be found . Rather than let them act as unseen and anonymous Leftist puppet masters , it time to track them down . Show up on their streets , knock at their doors and let them know , personally : “ knock it off” . There is simply NO WAY that American patriots should sit on their hands and let these people operate with impunity . It they want to sew this targeted ‘dissent ‘ they should also live in fear . George Soros ...he has residences . Every single one should be publicized and become well know . There should develop an Anonymous type of organization that states if anything happens to Donald Trump - YOU lose Bernie Sanders “ and mean it . I am so tired of these radical Leftist punks pushing America around , and ordinary Americans just taking it and standing for it . They want to play rough ? Let them know what ‘rough’ looks like .
