That doesn’t surprise me that MSM spikes those stories.

It’s a shame they have to lie and deceive most Americans who believe all their lies.

[DoughtyOne]

I have only one thing to say:

Okay, two things...

[ozzymandus]

Indian subcontinent, per Wiki.

[Thibodeaux]

the thugs are catholic

[Paladin2]

I was likely confused with assassins.

[jetson]

If the authorities are going to continue not giving national election gatherings proper policing ( especially with Mexicans waving Mexican flags) there is more and more possibility of bloodshed coming from fed up Americans.

[Bigg Red]

He needs to repeat this in his speeches. Since the media won’t show the truth, he needs to get the video clips of these thugs out there somehow.

[Mark17]

They are the worst hypocrites.

You are correct sir, but I think it will get a lot worse. I think a bunch of people will get killed, and the government will do NOTHING to stop it. It could get real ugly. I don't think the communists among us will ever let up, until they are stopped, whatever that might mean.

[comebacknewt]

The only prominent politician in either party willing to call them what they are.

Look for his poll numbers to continue their upward climb.

[HippyLoggerBiker]

Even WikiPedia gets it right sometimes:

Try it, you’ll like it.

"Thugs" is way to kind of a term

They are a "rent a mob" hired by the young dims of orange county. They consist of communists, anarchists, BLM and La Raza political activists and a few bernied out hippies.

[Steve_Seattle]

I’m not a Trump guy, but he is totally correct on this topic.

[right way right]

I think Trump needs to make sure he has a lot of loyal security agents.
This campaign is getting pretty disturbing.
And, yes he is right about these disruptor.
He needs to always call them disruptor's.

I believe you are absolutely correct. If they are following the instructions of the venerable Alinsky, that would be part of the plan. Was it Cass Sunstein who revealed the power he exercised was “nudging?” Whoever it was, I think we see a bit of nudging going on here, folks.

[sheik yerbouty]

Bwaaaahaaaaaaa!!

[DoughtyOne]

Don’t forget though. When the citizens do take action, of course it will be addressed as disproportionate and evil.

[TEXOKIE]

Absolutely! That is step two after the nudging works! The reason for the nudging is to get a reaction which then can be amplified into an excuse for a crack down.

[GOPJ]

Someone’s paying for the black shirts, bandanas, and signs these thugs have ...and it sure as hell isn’t the protesters.

Hey CNN: find a real reporter and have him (or her) ASK SOME QUESTIONS. Maybe 60 Minutes? It’s been a while since they ‘investigated’ anything liberal. IF ever. FIND OUT WHO’S PAYING THESE GOONS TO BE VIOLENT AT TRUMP RALLIES.

IF paid professional CONSERVATIVE ‘protesters’ were fighting with Hillary supporters - - being violent, the damn MSM would be out there with bells on AND they would NOT be blaming Hillary.
