Trump supporter roughs up protesters at rally. Donald Trump gripes 'dishonest media' won't report it.

Donald Trump was talking about "parents telling their children about Hillary's attacks" at a rally in Asheville, North Carolina, on Monday when a scuffle broke out in the bleachers behind him. Trump stopped and looked up, and so did the cameras. It's not clear what Trump could see from the stage, but the cameras showed a muscular middle aged man shaking, hitting, and slapping at a group of younger men and women who were apparently protesting Trump's speech. "It's okay, the cameras are following it, it's great," Trump said as a security guard ushered the protesters out, the revved-up Trump supporter continuing to take pot shots. "See now, the dishonest media will not report that," Trump said, perhaps impressed that his supporters did not draw blood. "They say we're bad people, they're not going to report that." You can watch CNN's video of the incident below. Peter Weber
