Trump Rally-Goer To CNN Reporter: "I Am A Patriot And You Are A Traitor!"

Noah Gray, a CNN producer covering the Trump campaign rally Thursday in Kissimmee, FL, uploaded this video to Twitter showing a Donald Trump rally attendee shouting at journalists covering the event. "Go home!" he said. "You are traitors! I am an American Patriot!"

When asked his name, the man replied: "I am a Patriot! And your name is 'Traitor.'"

Dude will be stroking out soon when Cheeto gets defeated. I noticed he also has a "tea party patriot" button. Looks more like a deranged lunatic to me. I can just see him in his lazy boy chair with fox turned on and he is venting and slobbering hate.

they deserve to be demolished and totally humiliated. There needs to be no doubt in their minds that America does not agree with them.

I'd almost recommend that liberals use more scare tactics directed at largely unaccountable and opaque corporations to win some of them over, but those folks would embarrass me.

I have to wonder how some of these nuts are treated by coworkers and neighbors after they make fools of themselves on tv.
