say in that article that thousands of people were celebrating. nor is there any video of proof. eric: we understand trump was the subject of more complaints by some of the other gop candidates. nikole: you might recall that earlier this mud, donald trump was on saturday night live. it was heavily promoted. that ruffled the feathers of several candidates, including james gilmore, mike
