Donald Trump approves of the way his supporters responded to a Black Lives Matter protester, reportedly beating him during a Saturday rally in Birmingham, Alabama. 

"Maybe he should have been roughed up," Trump said during a Sunday morning call-inappearance on "Fox & Friends." "It was absolutely disgusting what he was doing." 

A CNN reporter captured video of the Saturday incident in which a protester was reportedlypunched and kicked after he was tackled to the ground by attendees or security at Trump's rally. At least one onlooker yelled, "Don't choke him! Don't choke him!" according to The Washington Post. 

Trump is heard in the video yelling, "Get him the hell out of here!" Birmingham police removed three protesters following the episode and told The Huffington Post that no incident report was filed after the altercation. 

"The man you say was, I don't know, roughed up -- he was so obnoxious and so loud, he was screaming," Trump said Sunday. "I had 10,000 people in the room yesterday and this guy started screaming by himself." "This was not handled the way Bernie Sanders handled his problem, I will tell you," the Republican presidential hopeful added. more
