The man who sucker-punched a protester at a rally in Fayetteville, North Carolina is unrepentant. In fact, he told Inside Edition he'd do it again, and more if he thought it was necessary.

INSIDE EDITION tracked down the supporter, 78-year-old John McGraw, who was unrepentant.

When asked if he liked the rally, he said: “You bet I liked it. Knocking the hell out of that big mouth.”

And when asked why he punched the protester, he said: "Number one, we don’t know if he’s ISIS. We don’t know who he is, but we know he’s not acting like an American, cussing me... If he wants it laid out, I laid it out."

He added: “Yes, he deserved it. The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We don’t know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization.

I'll wait for Trump to claim (yet again) that his extremist rhetoric isn't creating an environment for extreme violence.
