After focusing his insults on his GOP rivals and Fox News host Megyn Kelly over the weekend, Donald Trump on Tuesday turned his attention toward Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
After a speech at a rally in Michigan, Trump criticized the way Sanders handled a Black Lives Matter protest during a Saturday rally in Seattle. The Democratic candidate left the campaign event when protesters took over the podium before his speech.
“Believe me, that’s not going to happen to Trump,” the real estate mogul told reporters after his speech in Michigan, according to CNN. “I would never give up my microphone. I thought that was disgusting. That showed such weakness, the way he was taken away by two young women — the microphone; they just took the whole place over.”
Trump said that he would handle protesters better than Sanders did on Saturday.
“That will never happen with me,” he said, according to CNN. “I don’t know if I’ll do the fighting myself or if other people will, but that was a disgrace. I felt badly for him. But it showed that he’s weak.”
