A Trump protester was punched and kicked several times while being escorted out of a rally in Tucson, Ariz., by police.
{mosads}Videos show a protester in an American flag shirt holding up a picture of Trump before being punched. Another protester walking right behind him is seen wearing a white Ku Klux Klan-style hood. Police immediately handcuffed the attacker.
The protestor was wearing a hood while saluting, presumably referring to KKK/Hitler, before he was punched & kicked https://t.co/BfioarhaBR

Trump called out the hooded protester early on in the rally.
“He’s a disgusting guy,” Trump said. “That is a disgusting guy, really disgusting.”
Trump got into hot water when he received the support of former KKK leader David Duke and faltered in his distancing himself from the organization.
