“I am very surprised to hear that– I hate to hear that, I mean I hate to hear that,” Trump said. “But I think it’s a very small amount,” he added.

Stahl asked if he had a message for people engaging in this behavior. “I would say don’t do it, that’s terrible, because I’m going to bring this country together.”

Leslie Stahl mentioned the hate crimes against Muslims and Latinos. Trump said: “I am so saddened to hear that. And I say, ‘Stop it.’ If it– if it helps. I will say this, and I will say right to the cameras: ‘Stop it.’”

Some of these reports have not been confirmed or have been debunked.

Neither President Obama nor Hillary Clinton has called for their supporters who are rioting around the country to stop.
