Jeffrey Lord: Liberals Are ‘Provoking’ Trump Supporters to Assault Them

CNN’s Jeffrey Lord: Liberals get sucker-punched at Trump rallies because they ‘provoke’ it (Raw Story)

CNN contributor Jeffrey Lord argued on Thursday that a black man who was sucker-punched at a Donald Trump rally this week was guilty of “provoking” the GOP candidate’s supporters.

After authorities in North Carolina charged 78-year-old John McGraw with assaulting Rakeem Jones on Thursday, CNN host Brooke Baldwin asked if the violence was the result of the anger being fomented at Trump’s rallies.

U.S. News & World Report Senior Politics correspondent David Catanese said that it was important that Trump immediately denounce the pattern of violence against protesters, photographers and journalists at his rallies.
