Donald Trump supporter about black protester: ‘Light the motherf***er on fire’
December 14: Las Vegas On the eve of the final Republican presidential debate of 2015, Trump hosted a rally in Sin City that devolved into supporters yelling racial slurs, calling for a protester to be set on fire and even shouting a Nazi salute.
When chants of “Dump Trump” interrupted a Las Vegas Donald Trump rally on Monday night, the inflamed crowd was clearly ready to pounce on the interlopers.
As one of them called out, “Black lives matter!” a Trump supporter shouted at her, “White lives matter!”
“He’s a Muslim”, someone reportedly shouted as another protester was removed, the report stated. “He’s a Muslim!” as a protester was escorted from the ballroom.
Austin later told Yahoo News that he felt the need to interrupt the speech because he believed Trump was unfairly using the death of Shaw’s son to justify his anti-immigrant policies.
While having security staff remove protesters or hecklers from campaign events is commonplace for just about all candidates on the 2016 trail, Trump’s security staffers are aggressive about removing demonstrators, who have become a frequent presence at Trump events.
And about ten minutes into the Trump rally, this happens.
Donald Trump’s nightly rallies increasingly are turning violent, racist, and now, include Nazi rhetoric. A Trump supporter threw it through an open door onto the concrete outside.
As one protestor was being escorted out of the venue, Trump was heard saying: “Bye, bye”.
“Do I hear some noise over there?” He joked that he planted the protesters in the audience in order to get the media to cover his crowd size.
He said: ‘We came to the rally tonight to make sure issues that matter to us were heard. But noting his decades of work in law enforcement, he offered: “I have 33 years of taking care of problems”.
“When these guys started jumping up and down, I thought those were some rough protesters”, he said.
