Trump Insists There’s No Violence at His Rallies

Donald Trump “struck a dismissive tone Monday amid harsh scrutiny over the sometimes-violent clashes seen at his campaign rallies, insisting during an event here that violence has not been an issue,” the Washington Post reports.

Said Trump: “The press is now going, they’re saying, ‘Oh but there’s such violence.’ No violence. You know how many people have been hurt at our rallies? I think, like, basically none except maybe somebody got hit once.”

He added: “It’s a love fest. These are love fests. And every once in a while… somebody will stand up and they’ll say something… It’s a little disruption, but there’s no violence. There’s none whatsoever.”
