SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — A group of protesters attacked Donald Trump supporters who were leaving the presidential candidate’s rally in San Jose on Thursday night. A dozen or more people were punched, at least one person was pelted with an egg and Trump hats grabbed from supporters were set on fire on the ground.
Police stood their ground at first but after about 90 minutes moved into the remaining crowd to break it up and make arrests. At least four people were taken into custody, though police didn’t release total arrest figures Thursday night. One officer was assaulted, police Sgt. Enrique Garcia said.
There were no immediate reports of injuries and no major property damage, police said.
The crowd, which had numbered over 300 just after the rally, thinned significantly as the night went on, but those that remained near the San Jose Convention Center were rowdy and angry.
Some banged on the cars of Trump supporters as they left the rally and chased after those on foot to frighten them.

So, this is how Hillary and Bernie supporters ac. They cannot cheer their own candidate's agenda because those agendas suck, so they can only call names, throw bottles and eggs, and crap all over the other side.
Is this the crowd you want running our country?
Please think about this, and vote accordingly in November.
Illegal Aliens doing this.
And this is why you should not only vote for Trump but convince others to do the same. Even Rick Santorum says he will support Trump because our Constitution is at stake in this upcoming election. And Donald Trump's presumptive list of Supreme Court picks will preserve the Constitution.
Why wait 90 minutes. Touch a car, throw an an egg goodbye...
The police did nothing. Good thing they had their riot gear on . Gave the thugs space to assault
Fact- Most of these protesters are being paid.
“At some point Donald Trump needs to take responsibility for the irresponsible behavior of his campaign”.

Let me get this straight, Trump is responsible for the assault on his own supporters? The pure idiocy of the mayor's statement speaks for itself.
Burning the American Flag, waving the mexican flag, punching, damaging cars, cursing, throwing objects at Trump supporters will not stop the Trump Train.
This was stupid but let's not forget how silly we've seen the trump supporters act also
10:59 - Trump supporters are not attacking the opposition like these liberal losers are doing. I have not been a trump supporter. At one time was thinking about not voting in November at all. But these losers are making it easier everyday for me to decide to vote for the Trumptser.
Bs. Hillery whines. Its always someon elses fault. I overheard someone talking about white trash viting for Trump, I went over and asked them if they called me.
