White nationalist claims Trump directed rally violence
Trump supporter asks a federal court to hold the president liable for any damages stemming from a lawsuit filed by protesters who attended a Kentucky campaign stop.
A white nationalist leader accused of assaulting a young African-American woman at a Donald Trump campaign rally filed a countersuit on Monday claiming the president directed him and other supporters to remove protesters.
Matthew Heimbach claims in his federal court filing that he “acted pursuant to the directives and requests of Donald J. Trump and Donald J. Trump for President” and that, if he’s found liable for damages, “any liability must be shifted to one or both of them.”
The legal fight stems from a March 2016 rally in Louisville, Kentucky, at which protesters were allegedly roughed up and ejected by Trump supporters after the then-candidate barked from the stage “get ’em out of here!”

Did Trump think that he would be exempt from Trumpette's perpetual blaming?

Not entirely. Matthew Heimbach, at least, is throwing Trump under the bus.

Yes, but only in defense of his own action. He's claiming he's not liable for injury, etc. because "...Trump was legally within his rights to ask other attendees to assist in defending their constitutional rights against ‘protestors’ who were disrupting,” the lawsuit claimed."
Didn't say he wouldn't vote for him again.
