Donald Trump’s campaign manager says without evidence that a protester involved in a disturbance at a Trump rally in Reno, Nevada was “a Democratic plant or operative.”
Trump was speaking to supporters last night when chaos broke out in the crowd, and Secret Service agents hustled him off stage. No weapons were involved, although the candidate’s son Donald Jr. labeled it an “assassination attempt.”
A man claiming to be the protester later tells The Guardian and Reno Gazette-Journal that he was carrying a sign that read “Republicans against Trump” when he was attacked. The man tells The Guardian he heard one person yell “something about a gun.”
Kellyanne Conway says on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the protester was canvassing for Clinton and was put there by the Democratic campaign, but offers no details or proof.
