Thousands of people poured into the Redding Airport Friday for the Donald Trump rally. “The thugs were lucky supporters remained peaceful!”

All of which prompted NRA News’ Cameron Gray to rightfully say, “No supporter of any candidate should have to run for their lives from protesters”. The video of the incident quickly went viral, further re-enforcing Trump’s critics of their argument that the former host of “The Apprentice” is a racist.
Trump had been discussing the violent protesters who came to his rally in San Jose, and called them “thugs”.
Protesters are seen kickick and jumping on a vehicle leaving the Trump campaign rally on Thursday.
And a police officer was injured when someone threw a metal object at him.
In an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper Friday, Hillary Clinton said she was against all violence on either side of the aisle. The First Lady said, “We’re all in this together, we always have been”.
But in a speech today, Trump made another apparent gaffe.
While Clinton isn’t talking about the protests, she is talking Trump, telling California crowds she wants to win in their state so she’ll have momentum going into the general election. Trump had said, interrupting his own winding speech to direct his supporters’ attention to a man in the crowd. ‘Now we’re seeing people who are against him responding in kind – it should all stop.
‘Is it a surprise that people who don’t like him are stepping over that low bar? “I love you all”, Trump said, addressing the crowd at the end of the event.
“Rally last night in San Jose was great”.
“We’re both retired law enforcement”, Heather Jimenez, a 45-year-old Cottonwood resident, said of herself and her husband.
“It is very important for us to remind ourselves of who we are and what is best about American democracy and not slip into some of the bad habits that now manifest themselves in the other party”, Obama said at a fundraiser in Florida.
“Right away we hear these shouts”.
His supporters in Redding cheered, immediately echoing him by breaking into continuous chants of “build that wall”.

Donald Trump’s supporters are usually the ones being blamed for creating chaos, but it was demonstrators Thursday night who attacked the GOP frontrunner’s supporters creating an “ugly, bloody scene” as one headline read. In other words, Trump is to blame.
