Trump Provokes Black Lives Matter

Calls Bernie Sanders “weak” for bowing to activists.

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump slammed Democratic contender Bernie Sanders on Tuesday for allowing two Black Lives Matter activists to take his microphone and interrupt his speech in Seattle over the weekend. “I would never give up my microphone. I thought that was disgusting,” the real-estate mogul said at a GOP fundraiser in Michigan. “That showed such weakness, the way he was taken away by two young women. That will never happen with me. I don’t know if I’ll do the fighting myself, or if other people will, but that was a disgrace.” When asked about his lack of policy positions, Trump said his campaign would release more specifics in the coming weeks. “Trust me,” he said.
