Has Trump ever said?

"President Donald Trump said members of the U.S. military sent to the southern border to keep out thousands in a migrant caravan would "fight back" if immigrants throw stones and suggested soldiers might open fire on the group because there's "not much difference" between a rock or gun."

"They want to throw rocks at our military, our military fights back," the president told reporters. "I told them to consider it a rifle. When they throw rocks I say consider it a rifle."

If INVADERS attack our Military with ANYTHING they should fight back! Thats what Armys do against any invader

Let them throw rocks then its molotov cocktails!

Trump is a complete, utter asshole.

His attempts to make his comments seem benign are so childish they seldom do more than highlight his ignorance.

His attempt to pretend he was not suggesting that the military shoot at what he considers "invaders" was absurd.

Both can kill. In that way, they are the same.

Are you going to use the argument that because stone/rock isn't designed for that purpose it doesn't count?
 
Has Trump ever said someone needs to be beat up and showed a threshold of pain

Nope that was Biden

Videos at link.

"I’ll beat the crap out of you”
“Part of the problem is no one wants to hurt each other anymore”
“The audience hit back. That’s what we need a little bit more of”
“I’d like to punch him in the face”
“Maybe he should have been roughed up”
“Knock the crap out of him, would you? I promise you, I will pay your legal fees”
