rooster59 Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Reporter tells police she was battered at Trump eventTERRY SPENCER, Associated PressFORT LAUDERDALE, Florida (AP) — A reporter for a conservative news website filed a police report Friday alleging that she was battered at a Donald Trump press conference in Florida.Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields filed the report with the Jupiter, Florida, police department. Police spokesman Officer Adam Brown released a heavily redacted copy of the report, saying specific details are confidential as part of an ongoing investigation.On the Breitbart website, Fields has said she was grabbed by the arm and yanked as she tried to interview Trump after a Tuesday press conference while the Republican front-runner mingled with reporters. She posted photos of her bruised arm.Originally, Breitbart and The Washington Post reported that the 28-year-old reporter was grabbed by Trump's campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski.The Post stood by its story on its website Friday, but Breitbart posted a story saying video shows the "likeliest explanation" is that Fields was accosted by a security officer who was next to Trump and Lewandowski.Trump is protected at events by both Secret Service agents and private security guards."Given the similarity in appearance between Lewandowski and the security official, and given the fact that Lewandowski was walking on the other side of Trump from where Fields was at the time, the possibility of mistaken identity cannot be ruled out," Breitbart reporter Joel B. Pollak wrote on the website.Trump and his campaign have vehemently denied Lewandowski grabbed Fields. Campaign spokeswoman Hope Hicks described the accusation as "entirely false.""As one of dozens of individuals present as Mr. Trump exited the press conference I did not witness any encounter. 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," Hicks said in a statement. -- (c) Associated Press 2016-03-12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaidam Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 "Battered"? Battered by a barrage of straight-talk and common sense? It must have been terrifying for the poor dear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSure Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 It's BS but good fodder for the low lifes. There were hundreds of people there, cameras running, The Secret Service say they saw nothing as do security officers... Every shred of actual evidence says the woman made it up. Cheers.

NeverSure Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 NOW it's being reported that a big Trump rally in Chicago has been cancelled at the last minute. There are thousands of protesters there and the officials are afraid for security. Why don't people just behave themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckamuck Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 The more you see the mainstream media ganging up on Trump, the more you can be sure he doesn't work for the puppet masters. Stay tuned for more cinema and character assassination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JemJem Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) I don't know if Trump will win the Presidency (my guess is he won't) but the bigoted venom he has spewed (and will spew) has caused the atmosphere of polarisation and hatred to increase in the USA and also in some other countries. Sad. Edited March 12, 2016 by JemJem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tx22cb Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 NOW it's being reported that a big Trump rally in Chicago has been cancelled at the last minute. There are thousands of protesters there and the officials are afraid for security. Why don't people just behave themselves? And CNN insinuating that the situation was Trump's fault - and rightly called out as false by a Secret Service person. Such biased reporting, more worthy of Faux News.

I suspect they will implode in their efforts to stop Trump in the same way as his GOP rivals have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary A Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 (edited) Ben Carson was my first choice of candidates. I was happy to see him endorse Trump. I would guess that this woman is simply an attention whore. She is now in the spotlight as she intended. Edited March 12, 2016 by Gary A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humqdpf Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 @Post #7 "Why don't people just behave themselves?" It has obviously been some time since I attended a political rally but I would never have expected to see the participants engaged in grab-ass in the crowd. Maybe it is because I never attended rallies put on by such extreme radicals as Trump . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
