President Obama's top spokesman on Friday condemned a recent string of violent incidents at Donald Trump rallies that have captured national attention.
"There is no excuse or justification for acts of violence against reporters who are covering a political event," White House press secretary Josh Earnest told reporters aboard Air Force One.
"The White House like many other people, including other Republicans, has been concerned about the invective and taunting that has been directed at journalists covering political events," he added.
“It’s totally inappropriate. It’s not consistent with the standards of political discourse that should be observed by anybody who is seeking the highest elected office in the greatest country in the world.”

(Photo of young `lady’ “activist” making obscene gestures) Precisely.
What they are doing isn’t shouting “Fire!” in a crowded theater, but it’s the next thing.
If these political operatives—not passionate, young, idealistic youth, but paid Alinsky/Obama “get in their faces” troublemakers—plan on going to Trump events to disrupt, they should expect trouble.
By `trouble’ they should expect to be evicted by the seat of their pants; and like the border, if the police won’t do their jobs we’ll do it for them.
Sanders, McCain, Clinton, Romney may have tolerated it, but Trump isn’t putting up with it. Go Trump.
But it’s A-OK for BLM to cause havoc at the same events? So the scheduled speaker(s) should step aside like Bernie Sanders for the BLM protesters who should have been hauled off to jail?
And what did they have to say about Ferguson, MO?
“There will be an untold amount of rotting fecal matter remaining after the old admin. leaves.”
Suspect there will be plenty of FRESH fecal matter as well, as removing furniture and keyboard keys just isn’t enough this time when a Republican takes office.
Also suspect plenty of alleged freepers will approve, if Trump is the next occupant.
0vomit feels that Black Lies Matter has a melanometric dispensation to run amok..
I am watching the St.. Louis rally and the constant interruptions. I think Trump should liken this to ISIS coming across the border in Europe and here and completely unvetted. They just blend in with normal people.
There is no justification for what the protesters (or reporters, for that matter) are doing
It’s not all one-way here Josh.
(does Josh Earnest leave an actual slime trail wherever he goes? or does it just seem like he should)
Has the White house condemned violence against the police yet?
Well tell your soros funded BLM isiots to go where they belong. At illary and Bermie rallies.
Is this the same White House that encouraged its supporters to “get in their face and argue with ‘em”? Up yours Mullah Obama!

Smashing WHITEY in Baltimore is totally fine though yea?
The most infuriating is that no one answers him back. He lies and the lackey press licks up his spittle.
When he said that Obama had reports from the DOJ that Hillary was not a target - no one pounced. They are playing with a dead ball, no reporter will investigate a Democrat to nearly the depth that they investigate Republicans. How did Ernest know the DOJ informed the President about an on-going case?
But a couple of years of beheadings, crucifixions, drownings and burning alive of Middle Eastern Christians don’t even rate a strong word from Obama.
Deja vous. The WH condemned the violence in Ferguson but aided and abetted the busing in of protestors and stirred up the race issue.
Yeah, well - we disavow the idiots on our side. Your side elects them to office.
Has he ever condemned secret service violence at his events?
