Donald Trump warned on Wednesday that his supporters would respond with "riots" if he fails to secure the nomination at July's convention in Cleveland.

"I think you'd have riots," Trump told CNN on Wednesday. "I think you'd have riots. I'm representing a tremendous many, many millions of people."

Shouldn't he be arrested for inciting violence?

Predicting violence upon the basis of millions of people being denied the democratic right to representation in government is not the same as inciting violence.

Nice try, but no cigar.

That's just making a reasonable prediction Incitement would require active encouragement, exhortation or invitation. There has to be a direct nexus between the alleged inciter's actions and the riot. Laughed out of court.

"Grasping at straws". I'm sure he feels suitably chastised by us, Bogey, and will sin no more upon this score.

There are many things he should be arrested for.

As I said earlier, Trump has already caused much harm to the US of A . He is showing his true colours, and the crazy people love him for it.
Like I said much much earlier... there seems to be a significant number of insane people in the USA.

That should be POTUSA , by the way GP. Grin

Now he is holding you all to ransom, 'cos of the 'riots' his supporters will create if he doesn't get in.!!! Roll Eyes

What the f...??? This is not the person the world needs to be the POTUSA. !!!
