A Conservative Radio Host Was Assaulted at an Anti-Trump Protest. Here’s What He Has To Say.
Anti-Trump protests have been escalating in Denver, especially as the president ratchets up his immigration crackdown. While no Waymos have been torched here in the Mile High, there is a still an open question about violence. Eighteen protesters were arrested last Tuesday after a confrontation with police, and one conservative talk show host was kicked. 710KNUS’s Jeff Hunt has been attending protests in Denver all year, and he caught his alleged assault on video. So host Bree Davies spoke with Jeff about the kick, his self-described “gotcha”-style videos,” the question of violence, and why, through it all, he says he still loves Denver.
Check out Jeff Hunt’s protest videos for yourself!
- Here’s the one from the conservative “March for Life”
- This one is from the Bernie/AOC rally in March
- This is the one he referenced featuring protesters warning others not to talk to him
- And here’s the one where he gets kicked
