You say it looks bad, but you would have been better served by reading Breitbart's own retraction of the accusations based on new evidence. Here it is again for your reading pleasure:

"Fields was indeed hurt in the altercation, and published a photograph of her bruises. Yet the available evidence from WPTV and ABC suggests that it was unlikely that Lewandowski was the person who caused her injuries."

"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. Indeed, given Lewandowski’s adamant denials (coupled with statements inappropriately impugning Fields’s character), it is the likeliest explanation."

"Fields relied in good faith on Terris’s confirmation, and later assertions, that the person who touched her was Lewandowski. But he cited no other source to prove his claim, neither at the time nor in the Washington Post."

So the allegations from Ms. Fields were based on hearsay from Terris, and as the video shows and Breitbart confirms, Terris was wrong. You can read the entire Breitbart article Here

Sorry SPRINK, you got it backwards. Go read the Breitbart article here -- the whole thing, not just the headline.

I can't reveal it. Apparently you resorted to profanity and personal attacks and it was removed. Those who saw it claimed you used profanity, yet in your tagline you refer to being 'christian'.

Seems contradictory.

Am I wrong about what you said ?

Odd that you are so anti-Trump, yet everything in your home page screams out for someone like Trump.

Not surprised at the support you receive. Typical response on FR today.

When every one around you tells you that you are wrong, maybe you are.

Someone came tTrump with their arm outstretched and something in their hand...their arm got grabbed by secret service. If I were Trump I would have a presser, say that, and thank the secret service publicly.

Here is the only video I can find. Where is the knock down?

Also, since you are so well informed, what is Trump's tax plan and how does it compare to the other candidates? Provide links.

It is my experience that most Cruz supporters are parrots.

Mistaken identity. This photo shows how Lewandowski was on the other side of Trump, and between him and the accuser was a Secret Service agent dressed just like Lewandowski, dark suit, blue shirt and short hair. She went to touch Trump with something in her hand, possibly a pen. Secret Service is mandated to stop people from touching their person whom they are guarding.

And they updated after that

I don't know why you would make up such a blatant lie. I looked at the article and it is exactly as I left it. Last update contradicts the first half of the article AND the title that they refuse to correct.

Try. Try hard. Try really, really hard. Bring out your best hate to dispute the obvious illogicality of your statement, TBP! You can do it! You've had so much practice around here.
