TYT: Trump: Knock The Crap Out Of Them, I’ll Pay For Lawsuits
Donald Trump has encouraged his followers to commit violence before. Now he’s taking it up a notch, offering to pick up the tab for any lawsuits incurred while beating down protesters. Cenk Uygur, host of the The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

Trump said the event's security staff told him there was a risk people would throw the juicy fruit.
"So if you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them," Trump said at his rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.
"I will pay for the legal fees. I promise," he added. "They won’t be so much because the courts agree with us too.””*
