Sanders began her press briefing Monday reading a statement reacting to the incident.
"We are allowed to disagree but we should be able to do so freely and without fear of harm, and this goes for all people regardless of politics," she said.
"Healthy debate on ideas and political philosophy is important, but the calls for harassment and push for any Trump supporter to avoid the public is unacceptable," Sanders added.
A White House official says Trump asked Sanders to open her briefing today by highlighting the weekend incident. The President has made his views clear on this on Twitter and instructed Sanders to highlight it at briefing, official said.

Those people are bullshit. They can lie and be hypocrites right to your face without batting an eyelash.
