Donald Drumpf rally crashed in Kansas City, protesters clash with supporters, arrests made

http://us.blastingnews.com/news/2016/03/donald-trump-rally-crashed-in-kansas-city-protesters-clash-with-supporters-arrests-made-00833771.html

Republican front runner Donald Trump can't get away from violence on the campaign trail. Twenty-four hours after a rally was canceleDd in Chicago, protesters made their way to Kansas City.

Dozens were arrested and at least three people were sent to the hospital for precautionary reasons as multiple fights broke out across the arena in Chicago Friday night. After speaking with local authorities, the Trump campaign decided to cancel the event, which only sparked further outrage. On Saturday morning in Ohio, a protester nearly attacked Trump on stage before being tackled by Secret Service, and hours later Trump was forced to deal with even more protesters in Kansas City, Missouri as reported by The Hill on March 12.

"Unbelievable that we have to put up with this. We are trying to make America great again and we have to deal with these horrible people," Trump told the audience as demonstrators continued to infiltrate the event. After multiple protesters were escorted out of the building by police, Trump called for their arrest. "I hope you arrest them. Do whatever you have to do," Trump said, instructing the to "arrest them" while promising he will "file whatever charges you want." Trump didn't let up on his criticism, referring to those calling chaos as "weak" and "pathetic."

Explaining that the anti-Trump crowd came equip with "professional made signs," the GOP front runner accused them of being from the Bernie Sanders campaign. "They are all Bernie Sanders supporters," he continued, calling Sanders a "lousy" senator and a "communist."

Trump has to go, but he won't and neither will his follower. They are nearly at the point where they will form heavily armed vigilante groups and hit the streets to terrorize the rest of us.

We have to get Bernie the nomination. He's gotta be the one because Clinton and the establishment won't win against Trump.

was left in front of a campaign office somewhere in I think Illinois. Meanwhile, Trump complains about "terrible people" when he's their FKG leader!
