Donald Trump Admits His Supporters Were Violent and Nasty, But Says Theyre Mellow Now

Donald Trump has finally conceded Friday that his supporters were vicious, violent, nasty and mean during the presidential campaign. But he insists theyve turned mellow now that hes the president-elect.
Trumps praise for his more laid-back supporters was a marked departure from his earlier calls for violence at campaign rallies, including urging followers in Iowa to knock the crap out of protesters and offering to cover legal fees for assaults. And his fans chanted their approval of Trumps vow to imprison his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton, though hes since admitted he only made the threat to win votes.
His crowds could get ugly, Trump conceded Friday in a speech before some 11,000 fans in Orlando, Florida, thats part of his thank you tour.
You people were vicious, violent, screaming, Wheres the wall? We want the wall! Screaming, Prison! Prison! Lock her up! I mean you are going crazy. I mean, you were nasty and mean and vicious and you wanted to win, right? said Trump, speaking from an outdoor stage at the Florida fairgrounds.
But now, youre mellow and youre cool and youre not nearly as vicious or violent, right? Because we won, right? Now youre sort of laying back ... youre basking in the glory of victory.
However, his Florida fans werent all that mellow during his speech. They broke out twice into renewed chants of lock her up, lock her up. That prompted Trump to smile and say, Oh, thats so terrible.
Trumps remarks were the first time he has conceded that his followers have been violent. During the campaign, he blamed the several fights at his rallies on Democratic activists who were paid to stage them.
