Man Wearing ‘Gays for Trump’ T-Shirt Attacks Protester at Trump Rally

[TexasTowelie]

A man wearing a ‘Gays for Trump’ t-shirt and a Human Rights Campaign sticker on his ‘Make America Great Again’ cap and holding a rainbow flag in one hand attacked a protester at Donald Trump’s rally in Greensboro, North Carolina yesterday. The protester was holding an American flag upside down.

FOX8 reports:

The altercation, just the latest incident of violence against protesters at Trump rallies, came moments after Trump pointed directly at the protester and told him to “get out!”

…As the two men scrapped, a police officer intervened to break up the scuffle and escorted the protester out of the venue.

As the Trump supporter who put the protester in a headlock ventured back into the crowd, high-fiving other Trump supporters along the way, police returned into the crowd to escort the man and another who had shoved the protester out of the venue.

Asked by CNN why he hit the protester, the Trump supporter simply said “I didn’t hit him” as police pushed him toward the exit, arms behind his back.

Trump did not denounce the violence, but instead attacked the protester:

“It’s really total disrespect for the American flag. There he is, look, look (pointing at the protester). That’s what’s happening to our country, that’s what happening. That is total disrespect for our flag, that’s what’s happening to our country. We’re going to turn it around, folks. We’re going to turn it around.”

1. Like the few who wore Blacks4TRUMP?

I'm sorry, I just don't get it . I need someone to explain it to me like I'm a 3 year old.

2. It's not you. It just doesn't make sense.

4. Something that my sister (a Trump supporter) sent to me in a couple text messages:

"In many Muslim countries all other religions & opposing muslim sects, & homosexuality have DEATH PENALTY, so DT for me."

"I will vote for DT as I am very concerned about religious & social liberty."

I nearly fell out of my chair when I read those messages since she never was concerned about homosexuals at any other time in her life (other than she hated them because it took too many good looking men off the market).

She certainly doesn't care about the religious rights of others when she follows with another text saying:

"Another thing is S. Arabia & Muslim others have space & $$ for them but won't take them- why? The reason is they want to shove that crappy religion onto USA."

Needless to say, I reminded her to vote on November 28th.

7. They're not in it for the big picture.. just for

something inside them that makes them want a psycho, stalking, sociopathic predator to tell them what to do,

That's my theory

3. Trump is wiping his ass with the American flag, and he's getting freaked out over

a guy holding it upside down?

6. Apparently he doesn't recognize the international distress signal!

And America is certainly in distress, until this campaign is over and Trump is put away.

5. You can see an old man try to swipe at this guy as the police start escorting him away.

I think he thought because he was black he must have been anti-Trump.
