Donald Trump wavers on paying legal fees for violent supporters

(CNN)Donald Trump seemed to walk back his promise to pay the legal fees of supporters who are charged for violence at his rallies when pressed on the subject by ABC's "Good Morning America" on Tuesday.

"By paying those (legal) fees, wouldn't you be rewarding and encouraging violence?" asked host George Stephanopoulos.

"No, no I didn't say that. I haven't looked at it yet, and nobody's asked me to pay for fees, and somebody asked me a question and I haven't even seen it, so I never said I was going to pay for fees," the Republican front-runner said, at first denying what he has said both during a campaign rally and on Sunday during an interview.


At a rally in February, Trump told his supporters about protesters: "Knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously. OK? Just knock the hell -- I promise you, I will pay for the legal fees. I promise, I promise."

And in an interview on NBC's "Meet the Press" this Sunday, Trump said he had directed his staff to "look into" paying the legal fees of a supporter who sucker punched a protester at a rally last Wednesday in North Carolina.

1. "Trust me..." and "I promise." - Two things that...

should be called "Trump tells."

2. Doesnt matter. Like he said a while

back he could shoot people, wont matter.

Nothing that comes out about him will change his supporters hatred of Hillary.

His tax return will be a hoot, but nobody cares.

could that be construed he incited the violence?

6. Oh yeah.... accepting repsonsiblity....

for the actions of others. The attorney would eat this shit up. There will be lawsuits, many of them, and Trump won't get involved in that, he will have to defend himself in all of them...
