Trump supporter pleads guilty to assaulting WCCO-TV photojournalist in Duluth

[TexasTowelie]

DULUTH, Minn. — A Donald Trump supporter who was seen on video striking a Twin Cities photojournalist before the then-president’s Duluth rally last fall has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge.

Duane Waldriff, 71, of Lamberton, Minn., entered the plea to a count of disorderly conduct at a virtual hearing Friday in St. Louis County District Court in Duluth.

WCCO-TV photojournalist Dymanh Chhoun was recording as Waldriff confronted a group of protesters ahead of Trump’s visit to the Duluth International Airport on Sept. 30. Footage recorded by another person showed Waldriff turning toward Chhoun and knocking a phone out of his hand.

“You guys want to be peaceful? Be peaceful! You want to be violent? Come to me and I’ll …,” Waldriff could be heard saying just before throwing the punch.

2. Watch Fox, OAN or Newsmax for a while and you will

understand. They spew hate and vitriol 24 7. Old retired people like this guy park in their lounge chair every day and are indoctrinated with this hate. No wonder they hate like they do.

While old retired people like me do volunteer work, garden and read.

They have been programmed to hate liberals, women, POC anyone who are not white, male, Christian and straight.
