One day after he was removed from a Donald Trump rally, a 12-year-old boy who has cerebral palsy met with the president. J.J. Holmes and his mother, Alison, stopped by a Saturday Trump event in Tampa to protest the Republican nominee’s treatment of the disabled. After chanting Hillary Clinton’s name, Trump ordered them out of the rally and his supporters turned on them.

“The crowd started chanting 'U-S-A' and pushing his wheelchair,” Alison Holmes told the Washington Post. “We were put out by security. Mr. Trump kept saying, 'Get them out.' "

“I hate Donald Trump,” J.J. piped up, speaking through a computer vocalization device. “I hate Donald Trump.”

A woman who witnessed the incident asked for help in arranging a meeting between J.J. and President Barack Obama, who stumped for Clinton Sunday in nearby Kissimmee.

1. If Dems really were conspiratorial a disabled kid could have gotten kicked out of every rally

But we aren't. And really, don't you think one is enough?

The reaction of Trump and the crowd is... Deplorable.
