10:34 PM: Trump knows he can turn this audience to his side on protestor beatings.

“We have some protesters who are bad dudes, they have done bad things. They are swinging, they are really dangerous and they get in there and start hitting people. We had a couple big, strong, powerful guys doing serious damage.”

10:37 PM: Ted Cruz is an consummate bullshit artist. But on the hand raising stuff, that was some quality bullshit.

10:40 PM: I was beginning to worry that the crowd beatings story wasn’t going to get mentioned at all. But Tapper did it in a pretty comprehensive way.

10:44 PM: Getting a bit tired, rowdy boy Trump seems to be reemerging.
