He is right, but the media is making g light of it. Most people don’t see the videos of the thuggery that most of us do.

Why this man has my vote.

Any other politician either wouldn’t comment or would cow tow to these

scum bags.

Trump won’t back down. He’ll call them out and if he wins, god willing,

he’ll punish these SOB’s.

The answer is simple: The police must order some Israeli Skunk Water, spray all the misbehaving protesters. One thing to protest, another to damage property, throw rocks, and harm other people. That will put a stop to this nonsense. Bring it on, get sprayed!

".............thugs and criminals," calling for police to dole out harsh punishments............."

Calling on the POLICE to dole out harsh punishments!?

Hopefully we haven't lost our country that far yet. Perhaps the courts could find it in their domain to deal out the harsh punishments recommended once the police turn in the appropriate evidence of criminal actions.

C-BS downplayed what went on significantly by saying these protests were “largely peaceful.” If Tea Partiers behaved this way, the media would play this up significantly. These protesters hurled obscenities, blocked roads, crashed a barricade to try to get into the hotel, assaulted Trump supporters and surrounded their cars (if you include the previous night), beheaded a cardboard Trump, broke into the hotel and unfurled a banner, clashed with police and called the police names, etc.

The liberals, moderates, and overall uninformed morons who read this article will take Trump as the bad guy for his tweet when what he said was 100% right.

can’t be. obummer says no religion advocates violence.

Looked up a dozen different definitions of religion and found none that support what obummer said.

The definitions make no reference to whether violence is or is not part of religion.

Hence, he’s wrong.

Police are bleeding in the streets along with Trump supporters.. I’d say that qualifies as worthy of harsh punishment AND deportation for these illegal vermin who want to MAKE AMERICA MEXICO AGAIN.
Of course, LYING sellout Ted Cruz sides with the violent thugs so he won’t agree and expects law abiding citizens to STFU.

Wouldn’t it be nice if the police went after the guys who PAID these thugs to riot? Soros, for instance.

Yes, that could be done very easily, but the feds would never take it on.
See HR 347, which I believe was signed into law by Obama about 3 or 4 years ago provides the tools.

Among other things it makes it a crime to block ingress or egress to any building or place wherein is any person protected by the Secret Service, or to conspire to do so. Trump is a person protected by the Secret Service, so the act clearly applies. Many other acts we are seeing by the protestors are also made criminal by the act. Punishment is 1 year, or 10 years if the violation is by a person armed with a deadly weapon or causes “significant injury.”

"Those idiots just elected Trump, they’re just too dim to comprehend it."

Agree one hundred percent. Trump's poll numbers will soon rise higher.
