Sarah Palin offered up her thoughts on the protesters showing up to Donald Trump's rallies, calling them, "punk a** thugs." The former Republican vice presidential nominee made the statement while speaking at a Tampa town hall with Trump on Monday (March 14). 

"What we don't have time for is all that petty, punk-a** little thuggery stuff that's been going on with these protesters who are doing nothing but wasting your time and trying to take away your First Amendment rights, your rights to assemble peacefully. And the media, being on the thugs' side. What the heck are you guys thinking, media? It doesn't make sense. Well, you all get it."
