Trump, as Turban-Clad Protester Was Removed: ‘He Wasn’t Wearing One of Those Hats, Was He?'

...it appears that Trump was talking about a Make America Great Again hat when he made the comment, and one of the protesters only happened to be wearing a turban.

I'm concerned. From the video, I'm not convinced the Sikh was related to the bed sheet retard. Sikhs are wonderful people. The turbin is only one of their five religious symbols.

I hope in the excitement, an injustices wasn't done.

He threw out Nikki Haley?

I don’t care what they wear or who they are. Trump is OUR protester.

This isn’t a knock against Trump or the crowd, but a recognition those unfamiliar with Sikh faith confuse them with our true enemy.

Educate yourselves and don’t let that happen. Sikhs rock!

If Trump tossed Haley, *I* would consider voting for him.

I’ve got a feeling that it’s going to be a big money year for professional “protesters”. The city council documented undocumented illegal aliens will be cleaning up waving signs and banners.

Trump is the left’s protester. They own him and he owes nothing to us.

Agreed! Sadly, way too many Americans confuse Sikhs with Muslims.

Try as I might, I can’t see why Trump making a joke about a protestor wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat qualifies as... well, anything.

Are the anti-Trump people so deranged, with defeat in sight next week, that THIS is what they’ve come to?

Sheesh. How lame.

Turbans are worn by Sikhs.

And by Hindus, I believe.

The injustice was done by the trespassing protester.

You may be correct sadly. It does not appear the Sikh was attached to the sign. The other guy had both sides of the sign.

He was another obnoxious protester that got kicked out. He did let the TV audience see the crowd because of his antics.

I don't know what the link says, but Muslims HATE Sikhs.

HATE.

You’re right. I grew up around and know a lot of Sikh’s. Great people. Been persecuted by Muslims for centuries, so they understand the nature of what we’re dealing with. Unfortunately, the turban does create an exotic look that conjures up other kinds of things.
