A Donald Trump campaign supporter seen on video sucker-punching and then stomping on a prone protester at a rally in Tucson has been charged with misdemeanor assault.

A man who attended Donald Trump’s rally in North Carolina was arrested and charged Thursday after multiple videos posted online appear to show him punching a protester in the face and later saying, “The next time we see him, we might have to kill him.”

What we now know from the full video, particularly starting at around 28:00 in this video, is that the crowd was taking their cues from Trump — who repeatedly barked, “get them out of here” without giving anyone in particular a clue as to who he expected to do such a thing. So flippant in his directive, it appears that attendees simply began taking it upon themselves to manhandle protesters and force them out of the rally. Apparently wanting to have the feeling that they were doing what their Supreme Leader told them to do, everybody began to chip in. A random teenage boy shoved the young girl to one side until she is pushed again by someone else. A man wearing a military hat repeatedly shoved and yelled at her as well.

In an interview with the New York Daily News, Chanelle Helm, a protester and respected activist who attended the rally, said that she and others were not just spat on, but were cursed at and demeaned repeatedly by Trump supporters.

She distinctly remembered one disturbing chant, which was lead by the white supremacists, “You’re scum, your time will come. You’re scum, your time will come.“

Video shows one man lunging at a protester, who is booing repeatedly. The Trump supporter grabs the man’s face, throwing his head back as others jump in to try to break up the scuffle.

As one man was dragged away, Trump supporters variously yelled, “Shoot him!” “Kick his ass,” and “Light the motherf——r on fire!”

A large middle aged man shouted, “Sieg heil!” — a Nazi Germany-era salute — as the protester was taken away.

“He’s a Muslim!” another man in a glittering black suit shouted as another protester was removed. “He’s a Muslim!”

I know it’s against your nature but could you tone down the insults? You bring out the worst in me. Either I need more self-control or I need to stop reading you.

In 1984, he sued the Chicago Tribune for $500 million after its architectural critic wrote that one of Mr. Trump’s planned hotels wouldn’t be taller than the Sears Tower. Mr. Trump said the statement made it hard for him to find investors. Lawyers for the newspaper and its critic said the statements were matters of opinion that were protected under the First Amendment. A judge agreed and dismissed the case. The building was never built.
Two decades later, he sued author Timothy O’Brien, who claimed in a book, “TrumpNation: The Art of Being the Donald,” that Mr. Trump wasn’t a billionaire. The court dismissed the lawsuit saying that Mr. Trump failed to prove “actual malice” by the author.
“Donald Trump has a long history of trying to bully, intimidate or silence opponents and critics, including me,” said Mr. O’Brien, now an editor at Bloomberg L.P.
Mr. Trump recently sued a labor union for what he said was an “attempt to damage the reputation” of the Trump Hotel Las Vegas by asserting that Mr. Trump himself refused to stay there during a campaign event last year.
In a lawsuit filed last October, Mr. Trump said members of the Culinary Workers Union Local 226 distributed a flier at a campaign event that said Mr. Trump stayed at the rival Treasure Island Hotel.
“Mr. Trump is the very definition of the American success story,” the lawsuit states. “He is the archetypal businessman—a deal maker without peer.”
In the lawsuit, Mr. Trump states the flier “communicated to the public that the quality of the accommodations of Trump Hotel Las Vegas was not ‘good enough’ for Mr. Trump.”
Lawyers for the labor union countered that the flier didn’t disparage the quality of Mr. Trump’s hotel, but rather stated that workers at Treasure Island are unionized, while Mr. Trump’s hotel workers aren’t. The case is pending.
Mr. Trump sometimes threatens to file lawsuits but doesn’t follow through. In 2006, he threatened to sue Rosie O’Donnell after the television personality said he had gone bankrupt. In 2011, he said he would sue MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell for saying he was worth less than $1 billion. Two years later, he threatened to sue an activist running a campaign to pressure Macy’s to stop selling products bearing Mr. Trump’s name. None of the lawsuits materialized.
