Trump Thug Attacks Man Old Enough To Be His Father
Protesters outside Trump's rally last night were chanting anti-Trump slogans at attendees. One of the Trump lovers couldnt take it anymore and jumped out of his vehicle and attacked one of the protesters.
The Trump thug was identified as a 29 year old. The victim of this violence was a 61 year old man.
It doesnt take a lot of bravery to assault someone a little paunchy with grey hair when you are a 20 something Trumpish he-man.
The victim was treated at a local emergency room and the Trumpster was arrested.
video can be seen at this link
At least he wasn't wearing a mask..
The dumb ass hillbilly assaults the man right in front of the cops.
Portents of things to come. This will be a bumpy election season from here on out.
The Trumper got in two pretty clean shots to the side of the older man's head but was still barely able to stagger the older man. He's probably lucky he punched someone who wasnt really prepared to punch back.
the Trumpster was arrested.
Will Trump pay his legal fees?
I forgot about that! At a campaign rally, Trump offered to pay the legal fees of anyone physically attacking, or willing to physically attack, civil protestors.
I had forgotten how fortunate we are to have such a generous, fine, upstanding, morally-grounded man as the leader of our country.
"Russia: If you are listening..."
"Fine people...on both sides"
"Shit-hole countries"
"Jeff Epstein has been a good friend for 15 years..."
"When you're a star, they let you do anything."
"Just look at her. She's not my type."
Sick of his silly behind, I am. Also sick of those who support him with an unbelievable amount of blind allegiance.
Thank your for your contribution. Poop rolls downhill, m'dear, which is why I chose to call out the original source.
So, the guy is a violent idiot (based on my policy of not hitting someone unless it's in self defense or defense of others), but there's nothing in the story about him supporting Trump.
Also, the old man doesn't seem very forthcoming about his part in possibly provoking the incident.
Yeah, that's kinda vague. How come you don't just tell us what you said? We're supposed to believe this guy jumped out of his car and attacked for no reason?
Questioning him about what, exactly? Why is he "questioning" anyone? Again, not very forthcoming.
If he wasn't supporting Trump, why would he attack a non supporter? Trump lives for this and has encouraged it in the past at one of his rallies.
Of course.
Maybe he hates old people. Maybe he hates blue shirts. Maybe the old man said something about his mom or his truck. Maybe . . .
You get the point? You could invent reasons all day long.
Let's also not forget Maxine Waters' encouragement of violence:
This is why internet comments cannot be taken seriously.
What made you take the headline seriously?
Well, no matter what started it, it was wrong and I am glad they busted the neanderthal.
Trump is quite the inventor
of reasons
for any and everything,
all the time.
punch em in the face, i got your attorney fees,
as soon as i dribble Mexicos' wall check tothe treasury
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this headline is actually your creation, isn't it? It's not someone else's. You are the one responsible for claiming that this guy is somehow a Trump supporter. The only link you supplied doesn't mention this. What is your evidence that this guy was a Trump supporter?
So now we have your permission to punch trmp supporters in the nose?
You're sticking up for this guy just because somebody said something to him. You are forever bringing up Maxine Waters....so.....
Just want to be sure you aren't being a hypocrite, Jasper.
So why go to a trmp rally if you aren't one of his supporters?
Please read comment my 6.1.4 more carefully, Trout Giggles. Unlike Maxine Waters' comments espoused in the video, my comment does not condone violence or defend anyone who is violent.
But I didn't read a comment from you condemning this man who attacked someone much older.
This isn't the only forum in which I comment, so there's a lot you haven't seen. I certainly hope this concludes your META assumptions and criticisms that personally target me.
Who cares? The point is you've never condemned him HERE.
And who went meta? It wasn't me
According to the story, this was somewhere outside the Trump rally. We have no idea how close or far away. The guy in the blue shirt was protesting. We don't know why his assailant was there. Maybe he went to the rally or maybe he was passing by. All we can see is that he apparently was in this pickup.
For all we know, these guys were driving home from their bowling league and these anti-Trumpers were blocking traffic. Guy in the truck says "clear the road" and the old man starts giving them a hard time, calls them names, talks about his momma, etc. That strikes me as just as likely as the assumption that some Trump supporter went looking for an old man to beat up.
We still don't know why the guy got out of his truck at that particular moment to attack that particular person. The old man acknowledges that he said something, but he's shy about saying exactly what. I'm guessing he's not real proud of it and probably recognizes that a lot of people might take a swing at him for saying whatever it was he said.
C'mon....don't be naive
And it's ok to beat somebody up if they get mouthy, is it? Good to know
If you say so.
I, on the other hand, already said the opposite a couple days ago, which [deleted] you might have read. In fact I said it up in @6 in this very thread. [deleted]
I did read your comment #6. It doesn't matter if the old man got mouthy with him. I think you would agree that decent people show restraint no matter what is said to them. The man deliberately got out of his truck just to take a swing at some mouthy old man.
I agree and I said as much already. It would be nice if you acknowledged that I have already said the only reason to hit someone was self defense or defense of others. It would be nice if you acknowledged that I called the guy a "violent idiot" instead of trying to say that I somehow endorse what he did.
Yes, he did. What he didn't do was announce that he was doing it because he supports Trump.
Mea culpa.
I still think he was a trmp supporter because it makes sense
Thank you.
Oh, I get the connection. It's not an insane assumption. But the real point of the assumption is to say "this is how all Trump supporters really are." That's not fair.
I would guess this guy might well have been at the rally, and maybe the old man was hurling insults at people leaving the event. At minimum. Maybe there was more going on. Maybe people were throwing eggs or other objects at cars. We have no idea what transpired before the video starts, but there must have been something going on, or they wouldn't have thought to start recording in the first place.
I used to live on the west side of L.A. and drove by the big federal building many times. It's a hot spot for protests and sometimes protestors disrupt traffic. Several times, I - and I am sure many other people in cars - have at least thought about getting out of the car to slug somebody, irrespective of their politics. At minimum, you want to yell at them to get out of the frickin street.
Or the guy in the green shirt is just a bully, possibly a drunk bully. Maybe he beats up fans of the other team at baseball games. An asshole.
IF someone were throwing eggs or other objects at cars, THEN I would condone punching someone. That's dangerous.
I actually still don't think I would get out of the car. I've been in enough fights to know that I don't like being in them. I'd call the cops, take some pictures, etc. It's not worth it.
I agree with you here, but I wouldn't blame somebody for losing their cool if someone threw an egg or a rock at their car
In today's world, jumping out of your car thinking you're some kind of badass can lead to running into Mr. Smith or Mr. Wesson.
To use the left's own arguments.
1) No one was killed so who cares?
2) Anti-Trumpers have proven violent in the past so this guy deserved what he got.
3) It was only an Anti-Trumper that was punched so who gives a shit. He had it coming.
4) Anti-Trumpers don't have a right to peaceful assembly or free speech.
5) Why are you defending race baiting, hate filled, violent Anti-Trumpers?
Bazinga!
Anti-Trumpers have proven violent in the past so this guy deserved what he got.
Is there one time when an anti trumper drove their car into a crowd and killed someone or had a candidate offer to pay their legal fees if a deplorable beats the crap out of someone?
And when have trmp supporters showed that they are the "bigger person"?
Said none of us, ever.
"The Trump thug was identified as a 29 year old."
Mr. Trumps next Sec. of Defense applicant perhaps?
The guy assaulted another and deserved to be arrested. No doubt about it.
That said, you spit into the wind expect to get some on you.
What’s your point John? Violent idiots are found across the political spectrum
like this attack in NY this week
“A New York City gallery owner said he was left bloodied and bruised after a group of teenagers allegedly attacked him for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat.
Jahangir Turan, 35, said Thursday that he was beaten up by 15-18 people two days earlier on Canal Street in SoHo around 6:50 p.m.
He was trying to walk through the crowd when the punches began, he said.”
Ah yes because we all know how peaceful the tolerant left is huh JR?
Are you telling me that you would punch in the face someone who is 32 years older than you?
I don't see your point.
Of course.
Seriously, how do people even have time to waste at political rallies?
Civility? Is this what Republicans want? We know Trump encourages this, we have heard him say that he would pay legal bills early on in his campaign referring to the press. It has escalated since then.
