ASHEVILLE, N.C. -- Donald Trump sought to keep the focus squarely on Hillary Clinton's comment that half of his supporters are a "basket of deplorables" here Monday evening, charging his Democratic rival with running a "hate-filled campaign" with "no policy, no solutions and no new ideas."
Trump spoke at an arena here where the atmosphere grew tense as protesters repeatedly interrupted his speech. Some of them made obscene gestures as they were removed from the premises. At one point, a man took a fighting stance and then pushed and grabbed male protesters and swatted at a female protester. The protesters appeared to be in an antagonistic verbal exchange with the man.
ABC News captured video of the incident, which took place in the upper rows of the arena.
