The MAGA-hats turned in her direction, also bellowing. The Secret Service (!) were sufficiently concerned that on one occasion they personally escorted her out to her car at the end.

Trump was encouraging violence against someone he perceived as vulnerable, a young newswoman who dared to question him and speak out of turn. He did it on purpose -- his silence was not one of cowardice but of satisfaction.

This is his pattern.
