PhotoPENSACOLA, Fla. — Donald J. Trump, in escalating attacks against Hillary Clinton, suggested on Friday that his opponent was so immune to prosecution that she could shoot someone in front of thousands of witnesses and not be prosecuted. “She is being so protected,” Mr. Trump, the Republican presidential candidate, said to a crowd of more than 10,000 at an evening rally here. “She could walk into this arena right now and shoot somebody with 20,000 people watching, right smack in the middle of the heart, and she wouldn’t be prosecuted. Energized by a raucous and rowdy crowd, Mr. Trump often veered from his prepared remarks, offering more provocative declarations of his platform and relishing the extended cheers he regularly received. At a fund-raiser on Friday night in Manhattan, Mrs. Clinton strongly criticized Mr. Trump, as well as his supporters.
