Donald Trump supporters have been filmed hurling sustained abuse at journalists following one of the US president’s “Make America Great Again” rallies.

Footage showed a crowd surround a perimeter fence separating the press from the public after Mr Trump had finished his speech at the Fairgrounds Expo Hall in Tampa, Florida on Tuesday evening.

As security looked on, supporters wearing MAGA hats and holding signs peddling popular rightwing conspiracy theories jeered and swore at the assembled press, with many of the mainly white crowd holding up a middle finger.

People are fed up with the lying, hateful, leftist press, but it is spun as mean, racist, homophobe, white Trumpkins. That’s just the way it’s going to be. They have their orders. Why try to pretend otherwise?

A special good night to Special Mediot Snow Flakes across America/the world. Sleep well! President Trump will be there, watching over you for the next 7+ years each miserable night in your miserable life!

That was some pretty dramatic writing, sounded like something written back in the 1800’s. Where’s the body cam videos?

Heh, yep. Reading the comments on the Yahoo article, the article itself is getting trashed bigly. There may be hope for our side yet.... Winning!

“Sustained abuse......”

That’s good. The left hates things that aren’t sustainable.

So in the commie ‘RATS’ Amerika, it’s okay to hurl abuse at the President of the United States 24/7/365 but you’re being mean-spirited if you “hurl abuse” at a so called “journalist” and need to be “filmed”? What the.....?

Sustained Abuse?

Today its insults and middle fingers. Soon it will be rocks and bottles thrown.

Before long - open warfare with guerilla tactics to overthrow our domestic enemies and replace them with an open and honest media.

At least WORDS are the only thing hurled by Trump supporters!

That's exactly why we lose. If we were just half as dangerous as the left makes us out to be, there wouldn't be any leftist liberals to contend with. But we're "better" than that, or some such nonsense.

“...swore at the assembled press, with many of the mainly white crowd holding up a middle finger.”

Yeah, so? Are we now supposed to think of the drive-by media as having been victimized? It’s like they got their wish but now they’re having second thoughts.

The press should thank Allah (or whatever being they believe in) there was this perimeter fence.

I knew who you were referencing right away. Pardon the first link’s “holier than thou” tone, but between the two of these it portrays the hypocrisy of whining about being yelled at following their own actions domestically.

Logan’s own comments about her ignorance of violence against women in Muslim countries is particularly-telling, especially considering that she her attack occurred after she left and promptly returned. The MSM’s arrogance & bias begets a response; they should grateful that it is so civilized.

Maybe they prefer rocks and feces.

“The free press needs to be protected as well as their opinions. That’s why that Amendment was First.”

Our wittle ears hurt. (sadface) -- Umm, you know, there's this thing in a capitalistic society with a free press - those are your customers right there. Those are people you want to consume your offerings and stories like this? They do nothing to endear them to you. Honestly, it makes you look like whiny little children who can't understand why the people they've repeatedly hit won't come to their birthday party.

And again, reporters, my right to speak my opinion has nothing to do with the 1st. It has to do with me being a human being. The 1st underlines the prohibition of the government from ever infringing on those natural rights. More significantly, the only reason why we have the 1st is because stupid people like you think that these are rights loaned by the government to be stripped away at the government's whim. And sadly, you cheer on such infringements....

The Marxist Media are Liars, Cowards and Bullies. The Left attacks us verbally and physically every freakin’ day. They come on our turf and expect a warm welcome? How rich is that?! They are just lucky we are not the evil, violent sub-humans they are.

Holding signs up and hurling insults. LOL.

If they reported on Obama, the way they report on Trump and his supporters, they would all have been violently attacked or killed by the Left all ready.
