Donald Trump Confronted and Stopped a Mugger in 1991 by James Rosen, New York Daily News

POSTED: November 20, 1991 When he saw “a big guy with a big bat” bashing another fellow, Donald Trump did what any self-respecting billionaire would do: He ordered his driver to pull over. … Witnesses said Trump, with Marla Maples tugging at his arm to try to stop him, leaped from his black stretch limousine Monday evening during the Manhattan assault. …

“The guy with the bat looked at me, and I said, “Look, you’ve gotta stop this. Put down the bat,”‘ Trump said. “I guess he recognized me because he said, ‘Mr. Trump, I didn’t do anything wrong.’ I said, ‘How could you not do anything wrong when you’re whacking a guy with a bat?’ Then he ran away.”

Donald Trump has stood up to a dangerous mugger on behalf of a stranger who was being attacked in 1991. Leaving his limousine, he put himself in potential danger by confronting the mugger directly. After the October 2015 massacre at the Oregon college campus, some have urged people to collectively confront an attacker if they were in similar situation. Those who encourage cowardice over bravery accuse those who urge courage of not being willing to act courageously themselves. (How do they know this?)

Although Trump has not spoken to the issue of confronting a future attacker, were he to do so, he certainly has proven he had the courage of his convictions.

In the biography of Ronald Reagan, he mentions making it appear he had drawn a gun on a person assailing a woman. The guy attacking the woman didn;t know that Reagan only had something that looked like a gun and fled.

I am done on this thread, trying in vain to educate the low-information voters and neanderthals who are Trump fans.

You sound like a horrible person.

Bodyguards or not, Trump getting involved to stop a mugging is an honorable act that should be commended. Too many people just keep on walking or ignore the situation.

Have you ever stood your ground against someone unarmed?
I have 5 times in my life.
The only time I was attacked was by drunks.
One was a drunk off duty police officer.

I am only 5’8, 180 lbs and stood my ground against three “Amish” who were threatening a retired couple.
All over 6’ and 200lbs.

It takes guts to do it.
The drunk police officer threw the first punch.

Please stop using “Amish” and call them what they are.

It is an insult to some peace loving people.

That would scarcely apply to me. I am an 80 year-old woman.

Up your Metamucil 'mam, it is obvious that you're full of it.

” The amish aren’t really that nice.”

Maybe,but I’ll bet they’re much nicer than the people who some Freepers often refer to as Amish.

If he’d do that for a complete stranger, imagine what he’d do for the country.

I thought you left already. If you have nothing but crotchety old comments to offer, why don't you shut your 80 year old pie hole and skee-daddle out of here?
