    All Lewandowski had to do was apologize. He only had to say, “We were rushing to get him out of there, I didn’t realize I grabbed you so hard, I’m really sorry, I never would have done that in any normal, un-rushed circumstance, please accept my apology.” He didn’t even have to really mean it; there’s enough latitude in that statement for him to be an utter shitbag and still sound like he’s apologizing.

    And yet … and yet …

    The sheer arrogance is un-FUCKING-believable. We are at DEFCON 3, people, make no mistake.

      It’s because they know they can get away with it. In a week, no one will care and no one will call them out on it. This will just be yet another thing added to the pile, so why should they bother owning up to it when they can deny until it goes away?

      I’m so disappointed in Anderson Cooper and the rest of them. This is precisely the time to NOT let it go, to start hammering, because this shit just cannot continue. I’m done, I’m honestly just done with this bullshit.

      They're fine as long as they keep targeting women and anyone who isn't white.

      Don’t worry, Breitbart isn’t backing her up. They love Trump too much. They point out that Fields didn’t see what happened and the WaPo reporter could be mistaken or lying. I waded into the Breitbart comments on Fields' writeup on the incident. The consensus among their readership seems to be that she is a fake conservative, she too pretty to be a good reporter and/or she making stuff up because she's a stupid woman.

      It’s really something when the best possible outcome is a Breitbart reporter is vindicated.

    According to this report in the Daily Beast, unnamed sources claim that Lewandowski has actaully privatey admitted he did this:

    sources said Lewandowski acknowledged to Breitbart’s Washington political editor, Matthew Boyle, that he did manhandle Fields.

    Lewandowski’s explanation to Boyle, said these sources, was that he and Fields had never met before and that he didn’t recognize her as a Breitbart reporter, instead mistaking her for an adversarial member of the mainstream media.

    If this is true, why would Boyle cover up Lewandowski’s confession, insead of reporting it? And if he is covering it up, how long will he continue to do so if Trump and Lewandowski keep blatantly lying, and smearing Fields?

      instead mistaking her for an adversarial member of the mainstream media.

      Because, then, it’d have been justified in bruising her, right? This fucking guy, amirite? Get the fuck out of her, Corey.

      I mean Boyle is willing to bury it because Breitbart Media is all in for Drumpf and doesn’t give a fuck about Fields at all.

      Not only is Alex Marlow (Breitbart.com’s head honcho) almost definitely a true believer in Trump and a natural born nativist, but by casting his lot with Trump he’s also playing a very ballsy game of chicken with Fox. Marlow has been itching to have a seat at the grownups table—er, “cool junior high schooler lunch table” maybe—for years now since he (rightly) believes that Breitbart Media has been more influential in shaping the current GOP than Fox.

      Marlow has put all his faith in Jesus Drumpf and no goddamn pushy, uppity *woman* reporter is going to queer his play.

    I like to imagine this is going to be their method of working once in office.

    “Mr. Trump, here’s video evidence of you giving orders to bomb Vancouver and here’s images of our troops bombing Vancouver.”

    “Didn’t happen - I think Vancounver made it up.”

      Is this part of his platform of being great for women? Looks like it's working out well.

        That’s the beauty of his platform - he can make women’s problems go away by convincing them the problems never existed in the first place.

      From my personal experience, only people who know they’re in the wrong accuse the other person as being ‘delusional’.

        Forgive me for distrusting the man who wants to have sex with his own daughter and claimed that marital rape isn’t against the law in court.
