Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump dismissed Black Lives Matter demonstrators as nothing more than "trouble" in a recent interview with equally critical Fox News host Bill O'Reilly.

"I think they're looking for trouble," Trump said of the movement, which was largely born last summer following a dramatic surge in the number of unarmed black men killed by law enforcement officials, including Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, Freddie Gray in Baltimore, Maryland and Tamir Rice in Cleveland, Ohio.

All of that aside, Trump claimed that seeing some organization members in an interview told him all he needed to know about the group's goals and motives.

"I looked at a couple of the people that were interviewed from the group," he said.

"I saw them with hate coming down the street last week talking about cops and police, and what should be done to them. And that was not good. And I think it's a disgrace that they're getting away with it," Trump added.

Trump went on to blast other politicians, namely Democrats, for the way he insisted they have "catered" to protesters.

Demonstrators recently upstaged Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., during a campaign event, and both former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley have both frequently talked about elements of the movement in public forums.

"And it's going to end up kicking them you-know-where," Trump said. "I don't think it's going to end up good. The fact is all lives matter. That includes black and it includes white and it includes everybody else."

Later, O'Reilly played for Trump a recent interview given by Clinton and prominent African-American Republican Colin Powell, where the former military general staunchly defended the Black Lives Matter movement.

Trump quickly dismissed Powell's thoughts, simply telling O'Reilly that Powell must also be catering to someone.

"He's wrong," he said. "He's totally wrong. It's 'All Lives Matter,' and that should be the theme of this country, frankly, or one of the themes. So he's obviously catering to somebody. I don't know who he's catering to."
