Trump tells security to take protesters' coats: 'Throw them out into the cold'
« on: January 08, 2016, 03:36:09 am »
Not satire or out of context, video at link. Major ass move. Makes one long for the days of President Bush when confronted with protesters, his common response was saying "Isn't freedom great" (and not in a sarcastic way).

Quote
Republican front-runner Donald Trump directed security to kick out Bernie Sanders supporters from his Vermont rally and to confiscate their coats.

"Throw them out into the cold," Trump ordered security, as protesters shouted "Bernie! Bernie!" during his rally Thursday night in Burlington, Vt.

"Don't give them their coats," Trump added. "No coats! Confiscate their coats.".....

...."It's about 10 degrees below zero outside... You can keep his coat; tell him we'll send it to him in a couple of weeks," Trump told security.

"You know it's sort of fun. Isn't this more exciting?...

I don't find stealing (even of leftists'coats) amusing, if that is what happened.

Video at the link.   Maybe he'll just say it was eminent domain of coats.

Do you know where else they confiscated coats?  Auschwitz.

I'll have to say that's a bit over the top. This is more like the 12 year old Jr. High bully taking coats from the nerds.

You do know why this happened, don't you?  Bernie Sanders supporters were ordering up mass quantities of tickets with the aim of not showing up so that Trump would be at a poorly attended rally - in Bernie Sanders backyard.

When Trump heard of this - he gave out 20,000 free tickets - so that his supporters could get one and be able to attend.  This was a private event for his supporters that Trump paid for - they asked people at the door if they were Trump supporters - and the Sanders protesters that got inside lied to do it.  When they were found out - they were taken outside.  I don't blame Trump for keeping their coats.  More people should treat these Occutards like that.

Spoiled brats!

Ended up, he had another overflow crowd - in spite of the Bernie's people's efforts.

Interesting the part of the article you conveniently left out with ellipses:

Quote
The Sanders supporters had planned to infiltrate the Trump rally but many were thwarted as Trump security screened attendees and ejected those who didn't declare allegiance to the billionaire.

But about half an hour into the speech some Sanders supporters began chanting.

And also:

Quote
Trump added. "You know, you go to a Hillary thing. It's like, boring. You go to a Jeb thing and you fall asleep.

"Are there any remnants?" Trump later asked, as another protester shouted out.

"There's a remnant," he said, pointing. "Throw him out."

Protester is making sure to put on his coat before being removed just to be safe

It's was meant to be over the top.  Trying to be funny.

It's really a stolen joke from the movie "Office Space" which I watched last week for the 37th time.  The line is something like "The Nazi's made people wear flair."

Typical Trump bombast and headline fodder.

No one took anyone's coat. He only said that to make the press. And it worked.

Trump sounds like he comments impulsively off the cuff - but I think his words are carefully crafted.  He is a master at manipulating the media.  Love him or hate him - you gotta admire that.

I read where Sanders supporters were planning to disrupt a Trump rally, so when I saw the poster's criticism in the OP I knew this had to be yet another attemp to mischaracterize Donald Trump.

It's obvious Trump's campaign success is too deep and disorienting for some to accept.

Thanks for laying out the background context for what actually happened at the rally.

Damn right.  Those who don't "swear allegiance" to the bully can and will fight back.  Hard.  By any means necessary.

Political integrity--if such a thing exists--means supporting your candidate. It does not mean attempting to disrupt an opponent's event. You can try to squelch an idea or a popular movement; but in the end, the attempt to disrupt will fail.

I'm happy to support a candidate who a majority of Republican primary voters like and support.

It happened as a result of the Republicans spending 28 years being afraid of their own shadow and apologizing for their own existence. At some point in time the 98 pound weakling getting sand kicked in his face was going to take the Charles Atlas program.

To counter Jazz, I think the right thing to do is to support your guy with arguments that do not personally attack supporters of other candidates. 99% of my posts regarding Trump argue for him--not against other candidates, nor do I attack supporters--except sometimes Obama/Hillary supporters. Hey, I'm only human.
