LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): Well, it wasn't quite right, was it, Chris? Well, here's actually what Trump said. He said, “I can tell you I have the support of the police, the support of the military, the support of the Bikers for Trump, I have the tough people, but they don't play it tough until they go to a certain point, and then it would be very, very bad.”



Jeff, why did the media try so hard to ascribe the most violent intention to the president, who is talking, obviously, kind of like a New Yorker there? What's going on?
