Chicago: Donald Trump is under fire from rivals who blamed his incendiary rhetoric for a violent outbreak on Friday between protesters and supporters at the Republican frontrunner’s rally in Chicago.

Trump cancelled the event after demonstrators scuffled with his supporters and police struggled to maintain order, with hundreds of protesters showing up. “When you have a campaign that affirmatively encourages violence, you create an environment that only encourages this sort of nasty discord,” Trump’s main rival, Ted Cruz, told reporters.
When a protester disrupted Trump's speech in Las Vegas, the brash billionaire said he would like to “punch him in the face.”
Candidate John Kasich, also a Republican, said that “the seeds of division that Donald Trump has been sowing this whole campaign finally bore fruit, and it was ugly.”
