Is Donald Trump’s Presidential Run Inspiring Violence Among His Supporters?

Donald Trump is a man who has tantrums. He is a presidential candidate who yearns to punch someone who disagrees with his views in the face. Donald Trump has even said that he’ll pay the legal fees of a man who sucker-punched a protester at one of his rallies. Then, he denied ever saying he would pay, either to distance himself from a lawsuit or to confuse the issue further.

Even his campaign manager is under investigation for an alleged assault on a journalist. This wasn’t even the first time a journalist was manhandled at one of his events. It seems to be a regular event that is only growing in frequency.

He’s also spreading disputed claims like saying Muslims were cheering as the Towers fell on 9/11. Then when protesters challenge him, they get “roughed up.”

“The man you say was, I don’t know, roughed up — he was so obnoxious and so loud, he was screaming. I had 10,000 people in the room yesterday and this guy started screaming by himself.”

Donald Trump spews rhetoric that could easily fall under hate speech, and when protesters stand up to him, he wants them silenced. By force, if possible. He has said he’ll take the media to task, and thus shred the 1st Amendment, despite saying he’s protected by it.

He also eats steak well-done, which flies in the face of his bloodthirsty persona, and his eyes look like his mouth.

He is Donald Trump, and his brash take on politics, is creating an unheard of amount of violence amongst his supporters.
