Trump speaks to thousands of supporters at rally in Raleigh
“He says some things that need to be said… sometimes I cringe at some of the things he says”, Ditcheos said, but contrasted Trump with those he considered untruthful politicians. More than two dozen people were escorted from the event at Dorton Arena here for various forms of protest, causing the candidate to stop his stump speech about 10 times until the shouts and boos subsided.
Several protesters were thrown out of the event after they attempted to interrupt Trump’s address.
He also blamed the frustration the Black Lives Matter protesters feel on President Barack Obama, saying instead of a “cheerleader” Obama has been a “great divider”.
It was just two weeks ago that a Black Lives Matter protester was reportedly kicked and punched at a rally in Birmingham, Alabama.
According to Wake County Sheriff Donnie Harrison, the authorities removed about 25 protesters from the event.
For example, he said this: “I think I could lose a state, sure”.
“If I win, we are going to be so proud of our country again”, he said.
– Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump energized a raucous crowd in Raleigh on Friday night with promises of military might, mass deportations and an end to the Affordable Care Act and the Common Core academic standards. One man, clad in a checkered peacoat, started shouting, “Love, not hate!” “We’re taking our country back. But remember there’s only four people”.
Trump also hit on his common points attacking illegal immigration, ending the resettlement of Syrian refugees in the US and supporting the military and veterans.
