Glenn Beck offered a rather violent answer Friday to what he would have done in the shoes of Donald Trump's opponents on the debate stage Thursday night, or so it would have seemed.

"I don't know what I would have done if I were sitting in their shoes. I can't say it that way," Beck said on his radio program, according to audio posted by the Daily Caller. "If I were on the stage, I would have said, 'Have you been listening to him tonight? Have you been listening to what I say about him? I believe these things.'"

Beck then went on to say, "if I were close enough, and had a knife, really, I mean, the stabbing just wouldn't stop."

Beck's co-host, Stu Burguiere, clarified on Twitter that Beck was speaking to him, not to Trump. "I mocked his error and he jokingly threatened me," Burguiere tweeted.

The radio host has supported Ted Cruz's candidacy, announcing his endorsement in January.
