Maybe a little TOO fired up. Because then this happened at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Florida:
A couple of protesters made their way into Trump's event tonight. "Don't hurt 'em," Trump says, saying our country is about free speech

"Too bad we had to throw them out, but sometimes you have to throw people out!" Trump says. The crowd roars with approval.

2nd protest interrupts Trump. He says: "The 3rd group I'll be a little more violent, and the 4th group I'll say, 'get the hell out of here!'

Things apparently even got a bit physical.
Another round of protests breaks out. Lots of pushing and physical confrontations on both sides.

And this just doesn’t make much sense to a reporter at the scene:
It's always entertaining when Trump supporters "boo" the TV cameras. Do you think Trump doesn't want to be on TV?

Heh.
Afterward, Trump had this to say:
"I don't believe those polls, by the way, because both of those pollsters do not like me!" Trump says of the new Iowa polls

But wait:
One of those new polls was by Quinnipiac, a polling outlet Trump complimented just days ago
— Sara Murray (@SaraMurray) October 24, 2015
Oops.
And a prediction: Will this be the topic of breathless MSNBC reports tomorrow?
Trump just mimicked a firing squad talking about Bowe Bergdahl on stage

Trump was not phased.
