‘Be careful Bernie': Trump threatens to send supporters to Sanders rallies

Republican frontrunner Donald Trump threatened Sunday to send his supporters to infiltrate the campaign rallies of Democratic hopeful Bernie Sanders, whom Trump continued to insist was behind disruptions at his events.

“Bernie Sanders is lying when he says his disruptors aren't told to go to my events,” Trump said on Twitter. “Be careful Bernie, or my supporters will go to yours!”

So you are defending the thugs who violated our freedom of peaceful assembly and free speech?

[NTHockey]

I believe you’re right. Back when I first joined FR, I said there were three paths forward. The first was peaceful separation, with lots of property changing hands. The second was secession, caused by failure of #1. Lastly, when all else failed, there would be a revolution - not an American Revolution, but a French Revolution.

Sadly, I must say we are rapidly approaching Stage #3. One spark. May God have mercy on us.

The story that no one seems to be mentioning is something that is being completely ignored by the mainstream media, “Robert King Bullock, aged 37, was a resident of Chicago’s Evanston suburb. According to Bullock’s friend, who also attended the Trump rally, Robert was an avid chef, and he recently obtained his Masters of Business Administration and planned to open a local restaurant.” Mr. Bullock was a black Trump supporter; he was murdered leftist thugs and all we here are crickets. No, Trayvon Martin treatment for Robert.

If a black Democrat somehow died due to violence from Trump supporters... we would never hear the end of it.

and on a lighter note...

Sorry for the typos. Mr. Bullock was murdered by leftist thugs and all we hear are crickets.

I don’t know where you came up with that. I was linking to a video of a Trump supporter who was no better [in action] than the disruptive protesters you denigrated in your post.

Trump said the protests were “very professionally done” and placed some blame on Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, saying some of the protesters were his supporters.

“[Sanders] should really get up and say to his people, ‘stop,’” he said.

Sanders defended his supporters while speaking in Chicago on Saturday.

“What our supporters are responding to is a candidate who has in fact in many ways encouraged violence,” he said.

Trump said he hadn’t wanted to cancel the Chicago event but did so over safety concerns.

Are you backing the disruptors at the Trump meetings?

Yes or no!

Simple question, again yes or no?!

[mlizzy]

Peaceful protesting is fine OUTSIDE of the venue.

[ichabod1]

He’s dog whistling.

[Grampa Dave]

Are you a lawyer like Cruz?

Then, you have no problems with what happened in Chicago, Ohio and KC!

I don’t think it would be a bad idea for Trump supporters to go to a Sanders or Clinton rally where they could listen, approve or disapprove of the comments as loudly as they like and leave peacefully. There is no need to behave barbarically to make a point. The numbers of Trump supporters should make that point very effectively.

Anyone who disrupts a Sander's/Clinton rally will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Not to mention they will probably be beaten or stabbed to death doing so. And the media will blame the disruptor. Anyone who disrupts one of our rally’s will be taken out and released or held overnight and released. And the media will blame the candidate. As all here are aware this is done to stifle our free speech.

The left plays hardball 24/7, we don’t. When we do, the left has conniptions.

The media have conniptions too.

[mlizzy]

If people wanted to make a True difference, they’d go to church and pray, and skip the protesting altogether. I’m not sure what peaceful protesting solves. And the ugly stuff is against the law.

[Cyman]

This is how I want my President to act?

[publana]

And Hillary cackles.

[rockrr]

There’s a reason why there is so little mention of that story and that is because it has yet to be verified as true.

[Mr Apple]

Thank you very much Travis for your important info on delusional socialist Sanders in your #43.

At least in 1968 they waited until the convention to start rioting.

If this doesn’t settle-down right quick like, it’s likely to turn into something none of us has seen in our lifetimes.
