Trump uncorks violent threat after protester disrupts rally: 'Not going to put up with it'

President Donald Trump threatened a protester at his North Carolina rally while one of his supporters appeared to get violent.

While being escorted out of Trump's North Carolina rally, a protester who was yelling at Trump during his speech appeared to be hit by someone in the crowd, according to video from the event. The interruption marks a continuing string of protests during Trump's campaign blitz to support GOP candidates in the midterms. Even red states like Texas, Tennessee, and Alaska have seen protesters interrupting Trump.

"You know, these people are crazy," Trump told his crowd in North Carolina. "We're not going to put up with it by the way...A possible threat, which could happen, I hope you won't get angry if I treat them very, very rough because that's what's going to happen."
