As dangerous as he sees former President Donald Trump, Democratic presidential candidate Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) says it would be more dangerous for America to allow courts to remove President Trump from state primary ballots.

“I think [President Trump] should be facing voters as the judge and jury because if not, I’m very concerned about America’s future because I think violence will ensue,” he said during a debate with rival Marianne Williamson that was hosted by the New England College in Henniker, New Hampshire, on Monday.
