Epileptic Journalist Attacked By Trump Supporter

[AGBF]

Read "How Donald Trump Supporters Attack Journalists" to hear a frightening story about how an epileptic journalist who wrote a story in "Newsweek" was attacked after writing a story about Donald Trump. He also tells about the many other names he has been called. He mentions other journalists, like Charles M.

Once candidates for president needed Secret Service protection. Now will the journalists who write about them need it, too?
