If you are brave enough to get between Donald Trump and a microphone, make sure all your affairs are in order because he will be ready to rumble.
During a press conference Tuesday night in Michigan, Trump was asked about the Black Lives Matter protesters who interrupted Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) during an appearance in Seattle on Saturday. "I would never give up my microphone," he said. "I thought that was disgusting. That showed such weakness, the way he was taken away by two young women. The microphone...they just took the whole place over."
