Trump Campaign Manager Charged with Battery

[Avatar4321]

Just heard on CNN that Trump is suggesting he could press charges against the woman reporter. Holy shit...

Yeah that wont go anywhere

Do you have a mental problem? Where did she or anyone say it's okay to knock a woman down stairs?

Do we need to get straw man out for your play time?

Just trying to understand the justification of the left. Care to enlighten me? I have never heard anything from the left when this sort of thing happens to a "nobody" - but you folks sure go ape-shit when a minor altercation happens in the course of a political campaign. You folks go crazy. So, what's it going to be? you going to stand up for everyone? or just those you deem "worthy?"

I don't know what you plan to do, but I'm going to debate the topic of this thread.

That's exactly what I figured you (and the left would do) - makes perfect sense.

LMAO

Like I said, when YOUR side does it, you close your eyes.

Neither Hillary or Bernie's campaign managers are assaulting reporters, so this doesn't happen on our side.

I watched the video (wanted to see the big bad bully, picking on women) and what did I see? Him take her by the arm and move her aside.

Oh my God!!! The humanity. Jesus you folks are grasping at straws here (as usual). He'll get a stern warning and the case will be dropped.

Funny, though, after thinking about it - I wonder where the hell you folks are when some pro football player or some rapper beats the living hell out of his girlfriend, throws her down a flight of stairs.

Geez..if you're going to feign outrage - how about doing it correctly?

Its not about the grab its about how the campaign responded to it... They unapologetically denied it then continued to aggressivly smear the reporter. A simple apology would have moved this thing right along but this tough guy "do no wrong" attitude leads to this kind of escalated shit. This is just a taste of what a Trump administration would foster if he makes the WH.

See my post. You admit he grabbed her arm. That's simple battery.

Don't let your lack of understanding a few simple laws cloud your judgment.

Good for Michelle Fields that she understands her rights.

If thats simple battery then we're all fucked.

If I'm in a crowd and I brush past a women from behind and my dick (through my pants) rubs against her ass is that considered sexual assault?

I guess no one needs to tell you that there are actually perverts out there who do that on purpose? And accident or not, it might get you a good smack in the face.

Was I talking about perverts who do that on purpose? No. I was talking about what happens inadvertently when people are packed tightly together. It happens and we've all been there (those of us who have been to packed venues). Sometimes were not even aware of it because of the sensory overload.

If he's charged with misdemeanor assault this could very well change media access to candidates

You mean if he's found guilty of battery. He was not charged with assault.
And no, it won't change anything because Trump would die on the vine if he didn't have the press kissing his ass and following him around. His sociopathic needs are too great to put a rope between himself and his groupies.

Yes battery (my bad) You do realize this is utterly ridiculous though right? We must be honest with ourselves here. If that constitutes a criminal charge of battery then what happens with viable charges of battery's. Do they get elevated to attempted murders?

Where do we draw the line. I'm hoping common sense prevails here and it gets tossed out once it goes to court. If not then I'm seriously disheartened where we are heading.

You think the a & b laws in this country are new or something? It has become easier for a woman to restrain her husband in the event of domestic violence but otherwise these laws are in place to keep physical violence from escalating: If you can't touch somebody then you can't beat them up, either. Makes sense.

Now Phrump is saying he may sue her. Just another day, another threat to sue from Phrump to Nazi...

I hope he bankrupts her stupid ass.

She seems to be the one with the legal case. Maybe she can get what is left after the Trump University people are through with his lying self.

I just watched the video, but have not followed this story. Why was Corey grabbing her in the first place?

It looked like he was trying to move past her. Touching her arm in such a scenario is a perfectly natural reaction. We've all done it.

That was not touching her arm, it was grabbing her arm.

Semantics. It doesn't change the fact that she lied.

Look up the legal definition of battery. If you don't see his hands on her you're blind or stupid or both. Battery doesn't literally have to be battered, beat up or hit.

The WaPo reporter who witnessed Lewandowski published an article immediately afterward:

Inside Trump’s inner circle, his staffers are willing to fight for him. Literally.
""As security parted the masses to give him passage out of the chandelier-lit ballroom, Michelle Fields, a young reporter for Trump-friendly Breitbart News, pressed forward to ask the Republican front-runner a question. I watched as a man with short-cropped hair and a suit grabbed her arm and yanked her out of the way. He was Corey Lewandowski, Trump’s 41-year-old campaign manager.
Fields stumbled. Finger-shaped bruises formed on her arm.
“I’m just a little spooked,” she said, a tear streaming down her face. “No one has grabbed me like that before.”"""


When asked about the incident the Trump assholes said this below. How fucking stupid can you get? Trump has a bunch of stupid goons working for him:

"""In addition to our staff, which had no knowledge of said situation, not a single camera or reporter of more than 100 in attendance captured the alleged incident.”


At least there is this: The Jupiter, Florida police department is not owned by Trump and his fucking Brownshirts.

Inside Trump’s inner circle, his staffers are willing to fight for him. Literally.

That doesn't change the fact that Fields lied.

So the Jupiter police are lying. Either own that or STFU.

Yeah that wont go anywhere

His middle name should be Sue...

Instead of a Boy named Sue, maybe a Rich Spoiled Brat named Sue.

Fields needs to toughen up.

Yeah, she needs to meet up with some clown who describes himself as wild on anonymous internet forums....

You need to get over it.... she ain't got shit. If she tries anything he'll tie her ass up in court forever.

 

[pwjohn]

ya but that bitch was probably asking for it.

in the good old days no one would even care if you hurt a woman.

those were the days!

Dude, you write like a man. Just saying

yeah, she aint got shit... Except for a VIDEO of him grabbing her, photos of finger marked bruises, a series of tweets of him lying and denying that he touched her, calling her delusional and attention seeking, and aftermath that resulted in the loss of her job, and degradation of her character/reputation. Other than that theres nothing!

This I would say "OK, misdemeanor battery"

No argument there.

The video tape however...no fucking way

I have a friend coming over in a while who is a retired television/film editor. I'll have him watch it and he will be able to tell how much time between frames. But the video skips. Maybe 1-2 seconds between frames.

But it is obvious that he approaches her and puts his hand or hands on her. Lewandowski is a pussy. I bet if it had been a male reporter the same size or bigger he would have not approached at all. He's a total pussy who probably got the shit beat out of him when he was a kid and it's been pay back ever since.

 

[conserveguy877]

MSM sure is recharging the Trump supporters after this crap Michelle fields did.

 

[G.T.]

she's lucky she didn't get taken out on a stretcher!

Given the size of Trump's hands (etc.), I doubt he could stretch her.

Having done a podcast based on sex, the hands/dick size correlation I can tell you has been proven a dud, scientifically.


Just an fyi 4ya

And it precisely this attitude of wanting to punish victims for speaking out against him that makes Trump and his cronies completely unworthy to be near the white house

FYI, I was making a joke.

Trump loves to exploit the media, he shouldn't bitch if occasionally the media exploits him.
