And Trump isn't encouraging his supporters to get violent.

The GOP front-runner said he does not condone violence, but he is looking into providing assistance to John McGraw, a 78-year-old man who a video shows sucker punching a protestor, 26-year-old Rakeem Jones, as Jones left a Trump rally. Jones was not facing McGraw and did not see the attack coming.

McGraw told a reporter that he enjoyed punching Jones. "You bet I liked it. Knocking the hell out of that big mouth," McGraw said. "The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We don't know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization."

WH to Dems: Punch back twice as hard

Top White House aides gave Senate Democrats a recess battle plan on Thursday, arming the lawmakers with tips for avoiding disastrous town hall meetings while showing them polling on popular aspects of the reform effort.
Senior White House adviser David Axelrod and deputy chief of staff Jim Messina told senators to focus on the insured and how they would benefit from “consumer protections" in the overhaul, such as ending the practice of denying insurance based on preexisting conditions and ensuring the continuity of coverage between jobs.


They showed video clips of the confrontational town halls that have dominated the media coverage, and told senators to do more prep work than usual for their public meetings by making sure their own supporters turn out, senators and aides said.
And they screened TV ads and reviewed the various campaigns by critics of the Democratic plan.

“If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard,” Messina said, according to an official who attended the meeting.

The hourlong session was the last opportunity for Democratic leaders and the White House to prepare senators for what will be a crucial month in shaping public opinion on health care. With no final legislation to promote, senators have expressed concern about dealing with questions and criticisms about the almost $1 trillion overhaul. The spate of confrontational town hall meetings have raised the stakes.
“They are just helping us understand the fringe that is trying to mess up our meetings,” said Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.)
.
Senators were urged to zero in on the insured, who need to be convinced that there is something in the bill for them. “The next five weeks is about closing the sale with the insured population,” Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) said.

Axelrod and Messina also presented polling that showed the insurance reforms were popular with women and rural residents.

“There is unprecedented insurance reforms — things that have never been done,” said Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.), a member of the Health, Energy, Labor and Pensions Committee, which approved its health care bill last month. “In our committee, we had to vote, and 10 Republicans voted against all those insurance reforms — every single one of them. Not many people know that but if I have anything to do with it, they will know it.”

Obama: ‘If They Bring a Knife to the Fight, We Bring a Gun’

[Editor’s note: This blog post was published in 2008. In the wake of Saturday’s shooting rampage in Tucson, Ariz., a number of lawmakers and others have called for toning down the political rhetoric and President Barack Obama led a moment of silence this morning for the victims. Click here and here for more. Also, check back with Washington Wire for updates.]

Amy Chozick reports on the presidential race from Philadelphia.

Mobster wisdom tells us never to bring a knife to a gun fight. But what does political wisdom say about bringing a gun to a knife fight?

That’s exactly what Barack Obama said he would do to counter Republican attacks “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun,” Obama said at a Philadelphia fundraiser Friday night. “Because from what I understand folks in Philly like a good brawl. I’ve seen Eagles fans.”

Sen. Barack Obama talks at a town hall meeting at Radnor Middle School in Wayne, Pa., Saturday, June 14. (AP)
The comment drew some laughs and applause. But it also struck a chord with his Republican rival. John McCain’s campaign immediately accused the Democratic candidate of playing the politics of fear. They also mentioned that Obama said he would use a gun that would be illegal under Obama’s plans to cut down on illegal firearms.

“Barack Obama’s call for ‘new politics’ is officially over. In just 24 hours, Barack Obama attacked one of America’s pioneering women CEOs, rejected a series of joint bipartisan town halls, and said that if there’s a political knife fight, he’d bring a gun,” McCain campaign spokesman Tucker Bounds said in a statement.

Obama made the comment in the context of warning donors that the general election campaign against McCain could get ugly. “They’re going to try to scare people. They’re going to try to say that ‘that Obama is a scary guy,’” he said. A supporter yelled out a deep accented “Don’t give in!”

“I won’t but that sounded pretty scary. You’re a tough guy,” Obama said.

BERNIE’S BROWNSHIRTS: How Bernie Sanders supporters shut down a Donald Trump rally in Chicago.

When Ja’Mal Green, a prominent black activist and Bernie Sanders supporter in Chicago, saw that Donald Trump was coming to the University of Illinois Chicago, he knew what he had to do. “Everyone, get your tickets to this. We’re all going in!!!! ‪#‎SHUTITDOWN‬,” he posted on Facebook last week.

Little did he know they actually would shut it down.

Friday night, hundreds of protesters invaded Trump’s rally while thousands more marched outside, leading the candidate to abruptly cancel the event due to safety concerns. The night spun out from there, as angry Trump fans clashed with protesters, who saw the shutdown as a victory.

Protesters interrupt virtually every Trump speech. But what made Chicago different were its scale and the organization behind the effort. Hundreds of young, largely black and brown people poured in from across the city, taking over whole sections of the arena and bracing for trouble.

And as the repeated chants of “Ber-nie” demonstrated, it was largely organized by supporters of Bernie Sanders, the Democratic presidential candidate who has struggled to win over black voters, but whose revolutionary streak has excited radicals of all colors.

“Remember the #TrumpRally wasn’t just luck. It took organizers from dozens of organizations and thousands of people to pull off. Great work,” tweeted People for Bernie, a large unofficial pro-Sanders organization founded by veterans of the Occupy movement and other lefty activists.

Organizing to shut down a campaign rally? Sounds like a conspiracy to interfere with civil rights.

Donald Trump admits he doesn’t have a foreign policy team ready

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump acknowledged on Tuesday he does not yet have a foreign policy team, and three former U.S. military and intelligence officials who have endorsed him are little known in either the Republican Party or the wider foreign policy community.

The New York billionaire, who had promised to name his foreign policy and national security advisers last month, told MSNBC that he has met with people but made no decision yet on who to advise him on global affairs.

Asked whether he had a team, Trump said on Tuesday: “Yes, there is a team. Well, there’s not a team. I’m going to be forming a team at the appropriate time. I’ve met with far more than three people.”

Henery Kissinger might be free, well not free exactly, but easily bought.

Pastor kicks off Trump rally by calling for Bernie Sanders to convert: ‘Bernie’s got to meet Jesus’

A North Carolina pastor warmed up the crowd at a Donald Trump rally by urging Sen. Bernie Sanders to become a Christian.

Televangelist Mark Burns spoke to Trump supporters at a campaign event in Hickory ahead of Tuesday’s North Carolina primary election, reported the Friendly Atheist blog.

“Bernie Sanders, who doesn’t believe in God, how in the world (are) we going to let Bernie — I mean, really?” Burns said, as the crowd applauded. “Bernie’s got to get saved, Bernie’s got to meet Jesus. He’s got to have a coming to Jesus meeting.”

Jeeeeesus! What a dick!

Debate's been canceled. But I'm with him on that. We didn't need any more Republican debates and he has no reason to attend another one anyway.

Democracy is a joke, says China – just look at Donald Trump

When there is upheaval within China’s own borders – riots, protests, vicious political power struggles – hardly a sniff of it will be found in the pages of the country’s heavily-controlled press.

When it happens elsewhere – and particularly when it underscores the perils and pitfalls of democracy – it becomes front-page news.

Such is the case of Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump, who, for China’s authoritarian rulers, has become the latest example of how allowing the masses a say in choosing their leaders is a bad idea.

“The rise of a racist in the US political area worries the whole world,” the party-controlled Global Times crowed this week ahead of of Trump’s victory in the latest round of primaries . “He has even been called another Benito Mussolini or Adolf Hitler by some western media.”

It added, darkly: “Mussolini and Hitler came to power through elections, a heavy lesson for western democracy.”

Trump, or “Chuanpu” as they call him in China, has been a gift to Communist party spin doctors paid to convince the country’s 1.4 billion citizens that rule of the people is a sure path to chaos and destruction.

When the people choose clowns for leaders the government turns into a circus.

Watch an uncomfortable Laura Bush refuse to weigh in on GOP race: ‘Don’t ask’ if I’ll vote for Trump

You can add former First Lady Laura Bush to the list of Republicans who have been asked the very uncomfortable question: Will you vote for Donald Trump if he’s the Republican nominee?

The question came toward the end of a longer interview with USA Today‘s Susan Page, on Bush’s new book and her work with Afghan women and girls.

“Susan, I’m not going to answer,” Laura Bush said, appearing to laugh uncomfortably. “Don’t ask that.”

Susan Page: But in your book it’s clear that you don’t think Islam hates America, or that all Muslims should be banned from entering the United States. Is there a point where you would feel compelled to come off the sidelines to speak out?

Laura Bush: This is what I want Americans to remember — what our real values are. And one of the very first things, one of the reasons we’re a country is because we believe in freedom of religion. We believe that people could be religious. They could choose any religion they wanted to, or they could not worship, if they didn’t want to. We don’t have any religious test in the United States. And that’s what we need to remember. We need to remember what our own values are.

We have a tendency in the United States, and it’s happened other times in our history, to become sort of isolationist and xenophobic and, you know, we’re just going to stay here together and not pay attention to the rest of the world. And it’s something that we have to pay attention to now because our world is so small. And it’s important for us — even though we’ve gone through these stages many other times in our history — to pay attention to the rest of the world.

Ted Cruz: Donald Trump is ‘scared to debate’

Mr. Trump, citing a prior commitment to speak at a policy conference hosted by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), said Wednesday he would not be attending the GOP presidential debate that had been scheduled for March 21 but was ultimately cancelled.

"His excuse is silliness, and it reflects his assumption that he thinks the voters can't figure out that he's not telling [them] the truth," Mr. Cruz said on Wednesday evening's "The Kelly File" on Fox News.

Mr. Cruz pointed out that the conference hosted by AIPAC is a multi-day event - it runs from Sunday to Tuesday - and Mr. Trump's schedule would likely have been accommodated.

"He chose to speak right in the middle of the debate [because] he's scared to debate," Mr. Cruz said.

"And, you know, he just, he looks down on the voters," Mr. Cruz said. "He thinks they're gullible and will believe whatever he's saying. So I'm going to be in D.C. for AIPAC as well since Donald is running away from the debate. I'm happy to debate him there. If he wants, we can debate foreign policy, but the problem is, Donald doesn't do very well in foreign policy [because] he doesn't have even a basic modicum of knowledge."

Paul Ryan says contested Republican convention growing more likely

House Speaker Paul Ryan said on Thursday it is increasingly likely that the Republican Party’s presidential nominating convention will be a contested one this summer.

If no candidate can assemble 1,237 Republican delegates by July, the party’s presidential nominee for the November election will be chosen by convention delegates in Cleveland, Ohio, in what could be four days of political drama, carried live on national television.

Republican front-runner Donald Trump warned on Wednesday of “riots” if he is denied the party’s presidential nomination, after he scored big wins in primaries in Florida, Illinois and North Carolina on Tuesday. It is uncertain whether Trump can get the 1,237 convention delegates he needs before July.

Donald needs to remember who can stuff the ballot boxes. Does he have any pull at Dibold?

Donald won't be attending the debate at Salt Lake City next Monday, because he would rather be at the AIPAC conference that weekend.

Hmm... Mormons or Jews. Which group is more American?

According to John Smith, when he found and translated the golden plates revealed to him by an angel named Moroni, they told of a lost tribe of Israel that migrated to the Americas many hundreds of years ago. These first Americans built a flourishing and advanced civilization, but one branch, the Lamanites, killed their righteous relatives, the Nephites.

For this and their rejection of Christ's teachings, God cursed the Lamanites with dark skin and a degraded existence. The story maintained that the Lamanites would not regain white skin and a civilized way of life until they accepted Christ's teachings. Thus, the heavenly beings instructed Smith not only to restore the true Christian church, but also to bring salvation to Native Americans.

There is also a longstanding bit of Mormon folk belief that Joseph Smith himself was of the direct bloodline of Jesus Christ. Curious, since Jesus was never said to have married or fathered any children. This could be off-putting to those of the Jewish faith considering they don't acknowledge Jesus as the literal son of God, a member of the Holy Trinity, or the Messiah.

Trump would have better covered all of his bases by going to Utah and insisting that the debate be held with a Native American moderator.
