Sheriff David Clarke weighed in on the violence that unfolded at Friday's cancelled Donald Trump rally, calling the recorded clashes planned “rebellions” that were “brought on by riot-starters.”
The GOP candidate called off his event last night, saying he didn't want to see "people get hurt" after protesters packed into the Chicago arena where it was to take place.
“You have to identify these creeps for who they are. They’re anarchists,” said Clarke. “They advocate violence, and they advocate chaos to bring down our legally constituted government.”
The Milwaukee County Sheriff called last night’s episodes “a threat to ordered liberty in the United States of America.”
“These presidential candidates and their supporters have every right to participate in this process in our democratic state here in the United States of America,” he said on Cost of Freedom.
“And for that to be thwarted by these bullies, these goons, is downright wrong.”
The sheriff said he believes the Chicago Police “were under-resourced last night,” and should have been “able to accomplish their mission – which was to have this rally go on.”
“This rally was cancelled in the name of public safety. Why don’t we cancel these rebellions in the name of public safety?” he asked.

Best post today.
That’s the Chicago way.
Lyin Teddy the Natural born Canadamaybian.
Looks like a lot of Soros was spread out in Chicago for this riot. Too bad it’s all going to drugs.
Is that a joke or for real?
I’m a fan of dead pan humor G Girl...haha.
However it’s become so bad Americans like me and you can no longer distinguish between what is real or not. Serious or slapstick.
That’s pretty bad, huh?
“Rent-A-Violent Mob!”
These are paid, professional agitators!
Those of us who remember the “Porta-Potty” wars encountered them many times during the Clinton years.
They are nasty, dirty, profane people whose sole intent is to create chaos and mayhem.
They need to be put down! Hard!
Didn't that jihad jerk look a lot like Paul Ryan, streaking across the ground there toward Trump?
Every town with a college campus will be swamped with imitaters. Unfortunately the "me too" wannabes will have their own Chicago Trump riot.
I heard they bailed this suspect who attempted a physical attack on a candidate who’ll likely be the next president. Do that in the morning and bailed out by afternoon.
That’s really amazing. Hard for me to believe that.
Yep, they Pam Gellar’d Trump.
They don’t have the balls to blame rape victims like their european politicians do.
The judges name should surface by Monday. Be interesting to read more about all that.
To be honest, when I first read he was bailed out, my first thought was fraud or hoax story.
There is a valid point to Sheriff Clarke’s assertion about CPD police allocation. The protesters were supposed to be assembled away from the arena where the rally was to be held. But instead about a hundred or so managed to get inside. The Chicago Tribune reports had Congressman Luis Gutierez being the head of the organization formulating the protest. Later the sister paper LA Times reported funding came from the usual lefty suspect resources based in Singapore. Probably funneled through the services of Congressman Gutierez.
But if one criticizes Trump because of his confrontational campaign strategy of using personal disrepect and trashing attacks which avoids substantive discourse on approaches or proposed solutions to policies like ethanol,eminent domain, and a host of government overreach and intrusion programs. Never mind foreign policy. It is bad on them.
I LOVE SHERIFF CLARKE amazing man, would LOVE to see him as VP
Read yesterday that these cockroaches were being promised 50 bucks to show up, wonder if Soros ended up paying them
Sheriff told Trump supporters NOT to back down. Kruz. who always follows the Constitution, says that’s wrong and inciting a violent confrontation. Will Kruz verbally attack Clarke?
Sheriff Clarke called the protesters goons, riot starters & bullies. Those are inciteful names. Kruz, who always follows the Constitution, will not like that. Will Kruz stand up to Clarke and demand Clarke apologize. Or, will Kruz, who always follows the Constitution, show submission to Clarke and keep his tail tucked between his legs?
The poison question for those who would rule us with their heels on our necks.....why don't we go after and hurt the bad guys instead of restraining the good guys.
When I was young, the Trump supporter who "sucker punched" the thug would have been praised and held up as an example of what a polite society does if it wants to remain polite - the good guys have to stand up to the bad guys without a hint of back-down.
