Obama during his campaign: "If they bring a knife we bring a gun"

[Dvae]

This much worse than anything Trump has ever said.
But the usual suspects have no problem with it.

"you sir are a racist for pointing this out." -crockett, the not-liberal.

[Rochard]

People have utterly lost their sense of humor.

Here is the full quote:

He [Obama] warned that the general election campaign could get ugly. ?They?re going to try to scare people. They?re going to try to say that ?that Obama is a scary guy,? ? he said. A donor yelled out a deep accented ?Don?t give in!?

?I won?t but that sounded pretty scary. You?re a tough guy,? Obama said.

?If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,? Obama said. ?Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl. I?ve seen Eagles fans.?

That wasn't a threat. It was a joke.

Obama, Guns and ‘The Untouchables’

Why would any red blooded American have a problem with a person bringing a gun to protect himself from a knife attacker? You some kind of dirty gun grabber?

I'm sorry I lose my sense of humor when someone threatens me with a gun.

"Here's how you get him. He pulls a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way!"

Hello stupid. Do you have your head up Trump's ass? Can you not read the media to see what kind of shit pours out of Trump's mouth daily? And you are ok with it? Fuck you dipshit and the rest of you asswipes that support this fascist dickhead.

Dont mind Dvae, he's a foaming at the mouth Consertive. He's become mentally unstable and constantly grasps at straws about how to blame Obama for something new each day.

Whoa, calm down a bit. Take a chill pill.

Maybe you should schedule an appointment with your psychiatrist.

That's called self-defense. If you dirty gun grabbers had your way, no one would be able to protect themselves from knife attacks.

It seems the media is able to distinguish things when it comes to a Democrat saying it.
Obama of course didn't mean anything by that. That is obvious that he was joking. And it was a non-event.

Trump says "If somebody throws a tomato at me knock him out" and is laughing as he says it and the whole crowd is laughing...and suddenly the media loses their ability of nuance and Trump is inciting "violence" and "hate".

It is so pathetic and desperate of the establishment. And it's going to backfire on them.

They are handing Trump the election by doing this.

[Robbie]

And just to prove my point...here are the very latest poll numbers. Trump is going to have a big day tomorrow:
Latest polls set the stage for another Super Tuesday | MSNBC

And I made sure to get those numbers from MSNBC from Rachel Maddow herself so that nobody can say it's "Fox News" or any other nonsense.

The point of OP is that "they" have a problem even if Trump says less than that.
He addressed this issue in his IL rally on March 13 by the way.

Ohio does not look good and it says that Trump lost lead to Kasich compared to previous polls.. I was hoping trump would take great state of Ohio... Would have been sealed deal wit hFL and OH.

[Dvae]

And heres Hillary in 2008 campaign.

Hillary Clinton: I'm staying in, in case Obama gets assassinated.

If Ohio goes to Kasich, that's ok, because it didn't go to Cruz.

Trump never had the lead in Ohio (I don't think) The last polls showed Kasich ahead in his home state.
But this latest one shows them tied.

It could go either way. But IF Trump wins everything tomorrow...he will be well on his way to finalizing the deal.

Or as Trump says: "I'm a closer"

[Robbie]

Good ol' Hillary.

It was also her campaign people who started the entire "birther" controversy during that primary.
Dems like to make fun of Trump about it...without realizing that it was Hillary who launched that against him trying to take him out in the 2008 primary. lol

[mineistaken]

But this latest one shows them tied.

Some polls did, example:
2016 Ohio Republican Primary

Anyway what I meant - Kasich got a boost compared to before. Unless I misunderstood this quote from your link:
"Recent polling has swung in the home-state governor’s direction"

[mineistaken]

If Ohio goes to Kasich, that's ok, because it didn't go to Cruz.

But it may not give Trump the path to victory before the convention. While if he did win OH he would be on a clear path to securing all delegates. That is very important difference.

How does Obama deal with hecklers?

A double standard once again.

did he say that before or after he called illegal mexican immigrants gang bangers?

[Dvae]

Thats was before.

But as Rochard said Mexicans are Mexicans, rapists are rapists but gang bangers are not all gang bangers.... or something like that

That's the whole point, you dumbass! The media takes things out of context or with no context at all or just makes things up about Trump
