Man monday new Jersey Governor Chris Christie took the stage later than expected. We are not going to make you wait a second longer. Let me introduce to you the next trump. Donald trump. Sad they didnt damper any encouragement from the crowd. A day ahead of North Carolinas primary the gop frontrunner had plenty of promises promises. We are going to win with ducation. We are going to win at every level of health care. We are good he went at the border. A lot of applause for the platforms for not every person here like the message. Several protesters were escorted out. Trump seemed backlash over violence erupted as some of his events. Opponents arguing he is inside it with his own rhetoric that the donald says it isnt heard at his rallies and he says what he is really about is peace. Its a movement as a lovefest. Away in a stop the protesters. The disrupted, the protesters. What he is asking for support at the polls. North carolina is one of five states heading to the polls with the prim
He is responsible for the rash of violence at his rallies and whether he will pay for the legal fees of the 78yearold man sucker punched a protester this week. When they punch, its okay. When my people punch back because they have to out of self defense, they say isnt that terrible. I will see what was behind this. It was a strange event. From what i heard, there was a lot of taunting and a certain finger was placed in the air. I dont condone the violence and what he did. So its possible you could help him with legal fees if this man needs it . I have instructed my people to look into it.

Explain health thet words were taken out of context or spoken in jest. In any case, they are no resemblance to what you actually think or want for the country. None of that matters. Nobody cares. You know the role you are n required to play. You are a sinner begging the forgiveness of twitter, so you issue a statement of deep contrition. You apologized profusely, you promised to be a better person going forward. With the guidance of your contrition consultant, you send money to whatever organization ulclaims to represent the people you supposedly offended. Then you sit back and brace for a wave of stories about your apology, all of which are simply pretext for attacking you again. In the end, you get fired. You lose your job here nobody defensive.
