Trump feared being hit by "very dangerous" fruit at rallies

j brown's body said:
"Former President Trump feared that protesters throwing tomatoes, pineapples and other "very dangerous" fruits could have killed him at campaign rallies several years ago, according to newly unveiled court documents Tuesday.

Driving the news: Trump's comments stem from a videotaped deposition he gave in October 2021 related to a lawsuit filed by a group of protesters against the former president's security staff, who they accused of assault.

  • “I wanted to have people be ready because we were put on alert that they were going to do fruit,” Trump said during the deposition, a transcript of the exchange shows.
Trump added: “Tomatoes are bad,” noting that “some fruit is a lot worse.”

  • “But it’s very dangerous," he said. "I remember that specific event because everybody was on alert. They were going to hit — they were going to hit hard."
  • “[Y]ou can be killed if that happens,” Trump said."

Trump is right again. Tomato is a fruit. Many people don't know that.

Obviously the chronic sufferers from TDS are deliberately distorting what Mr. Trump actually meant.

IN REALTY he was concerned about an attack by a homicidal homosexual. I mean, what other interpretation could you possibly place of "dangerous fruit"?
 
A coconut would hurt, but is that a thing, lobbing coconuts at people?

Tomato's are the ole trusty classic standard. Back in the day Vaudeville entertainers were getting lobbed with tomato's. God Bless America..
