Obama Jokes About InfoWars Hecklers, Alex Jones Calling Him A ‘Demon’
More: http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/obama-jokes-infowars-clinton-rapist-hecklers
President Barack Obama laughed off protesters wearing T-shirts promoting right-wing conspiracy site InfoWars and shouting Bill Clinton is a rapist during a Tuesday campaign rally for Hillary Clinton.
"Those folks are auditioning for a reality show," Obama told a crowd in Greensboro, North Carolina, where his speech was repeatedly interrupted by hecklers.
InfoWars host Alex Jones, an avowed supporter of Donald Trump who recently claimed the Democratic nominee was demon-possessed, on Friday announced a contest for listeners who promoted the message that Bill Clinton raped women. Jones offered $1,000 to supporters who made it on TV for at least five seconds wearing Bill Clinton rape shirts and $5,000 to those who can be heard shouting Bill Clinton is a rapist while wearing the shirts.
His supporters have heeded the call, popping up at a Clinton rally in Miami and an event hosted by Bill Clinton in Wisconsin over the weekend.

A comment I found on FB today:
"My advice to angry die-hard Trump supporters: on November 8, go vote for the Donald but leave the rest of your ballot empty to punish these fair-weather RINOs for turning their backs on your God Emperor! That'll show them!"

"Read This Man’s Terrifying Account of Standing Silently at a Trump Rally"
More: http://usuncut.com/news/standing-silently-at-a-trump-rally/
"James Troup boldly went to Donald Trumps Dayton, Ohio, rally last
weekend to silently observe the crowds response to Trumps rhetoric and
people of color within the audience. Troups account of his experience
is going viral.
According to Troup, the crowd was mostly white, with a small number
of people of color scattered throughout the audience. A big part of the
billionaire Republican front-runners message that night was based on
fear:
He told Ohioans that only oil was propping up their state and that
their economy was in serious trouble. He said this over and over again,
Troup wrote. He also told the crowd that ISIS was out to kill them.
That ISIS was putting 50 people at a time in cages and drowning them in
the ocean. And that we had to kill them first.
Then, Troup noted that the rally took a noticeably darker turn:
Cheers for water boarding. Cheers for torture. Calls to cut off
their heads They loved everything that was being said. The calls for
the wall. The calls to blow up oil fields. The calls to torture and kill
people.
