I appreciate everybody on twitter that has gotten hooked on this dc eagle cam and updating these throughout the night. Well get back to the eagles in a bit. Right it our top story this morning, another day filled with protests and violence at Donald Trumps rallies. This morning were hearing from one of the men injured in the protests. Jacob rascon is in tucson this morning. Good morning. Reporter the front lines of the immigration debate, where donald trump and ted cruz spent a lot of time recently. That protester sucker punched and beaten while on the ground. He tells me his only thought was to protect his head and he says the anger is palpable. Violence is seen now inevitable. Scores of protesters at every donald trump rally. There is a disgusting guy, put the ku klux klan hat on. Reporter in tucson, one protester in a white hood led out behind another, Brian Sanders attacked by a man in the crowd, repeatedly punched and kicked. What is going through your mind . Protect your head. What was going through my mind was, put your arms over your head because this Political Movement has gotten to the point where you may get beat to death inside of a rally. I almost got my [ bleep ] kicked. I just got beat in the middle of a political rally in america, right. Reporter this is Trumps Campaign manager, looking more like a bouncer at the rally, grabbing the collar of one protester. Another man pulling the young man back. The frontrunner meanwhile hoping his tough talk on you know, this country has a big, big problem with illegal immigration. Reporter a key issue in arizona where Sheriff Joe Arpaio and governor jan brewer rallied with him. Last ditch efforts to stop trump growing desperate. Millions in ad money against him in utah and beyond. And reports of a 100 day stop Trump Campaign led by the ever unpopular establishment, whose captain mitt romney is now voting cruz. Republicans are coming together behind this campaign. Reporter in utah, cruz now showing a sizable lead over trump, while despite his difficult road ahead, john kasich telling chuck todd he wont be anyones vice president. Under no circumstances. Are you kidding me . Reporter and the trump supporter who beat up was arrested. The opposition to his candidacy, opposition is growing louder, bolder and more organized than ever before. Jacob rascon, thank you. Chuck todd is nbcs political director, mediator of meet the press. Good morning to you. Spent the last three weeks in various parts of ohio, went to a trump rally in youngstown on wednesday, struck by the depth and the intensity of the support for donald trump. No violence there. But at the beginning of the rally, they make these announcements, to not touch a protester. They seem to go out of their way. Why does this keep happening at his rallies . I think you cant help but it is ignited his candidacy, ignited something. You see it. Look, his own words ignites something. Yes, they are now including warnings at the top of these rallies, but, you know, this is not the way the candidate speaks when hes at these rallies. I think that you cant help but he is helping to stoke the fire here that in his audience and then, look, that in turn that invites other protesters who want to respond in the same violent way. I think it is i think we see an escalation that is taking place here that at the end of the day, the candidate himself is probably the best person to deescalate. Looking ahead to the next contest on tuesday, trump is doing well in arizona, ted cruz is doing well in utah. But according to the new york times, it is the wisconsin primary on april 5th, gop leaders are focusing on. Thats when theyre going to do this 100 day plan to stop trump. Can you talk about this . What is the theory here and how will this really work . Well, thats the you hit the question. I dont know how it is going to work. They have not figured out there have been plenty of people who are desiring a strategy to stop trump. But there is no single strategy that anybody wants to unify around. And there is a reason for it. It is the antipathy that ted cruz is the logical antitrump vehicle. Hes the guy that is most likely to be able to stop trump. Hes sitting in second place. But because so many of the big money people, so many u. S. Senators and republicans think trump is thinks cruz is as unelectable as trump, so theyre not ready to do it. I think thats why this antiTrump Campaign cant get off the ground. Really quickly here, chuck, the confirmation battle for Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland now, we saw mike kirk there, the republican, who has quite the reelection battle ahead of him. The first republican to come out and say, we should give this guy a hearing. Is this the beginning of something . Or is this nomination still very much dead in the water . You know, i think i want to know what happens to chuck grassley. I think at the end of the day, it is in his hands. Hes the republican senator from iowa. Hes the guy in charge of the judiciary committee. He can schedule the confirmation hearing if he chooses to. He also happens to be up for reelection. South, and he suddenly feels vulnerable in iowa, then, craig, i promise you merrick gets a hearing. If he feels politically safe holding firm on the no confirmation hearing front, garland will not get a hearing. Chuck todd, thank you, sir. Well see more on meet the press, where john kasich, the twoterm governor of ohio, will be among chucks guests. President obama will arrive in cuba later this afternoon, a first for any sitting president since the 1920s. There is a lot on the line during this historic visit.
