Harry Reid and the Magic Exercise Band
Las Vega Review Journal ^ | March 25, 2019 | David Ferarra

Trial starts in Las Vegas over Harry Reid’s exercise band injuries

Former U.S. Sen. Harry Reid was seated in a wheelchair Monday when his lawyer paused to address the political views emanating from a group of potential jurors in a Las Vegas courtroom. “Our country is about as split as it could be,” said the attorney, Jim Wilkes. “We can’t fix policy today. We’re here about a civil lawsuit. This is about one person’s litigation.” Reid, now 79, sued the makers of a resistance exercise band after an incident that blinded him in his right eye more than four years ago. But as the trial in the case opened, several jurors seemed more focused on Reid’s political views.

Harry Reid was hurt so badly by this exercise band that he was forced to retire from politics.

I was thinking that I should start a “Go Fund Me” so as to send Pelosi, Schumer, hell most Dems and plenty of Never Trumping Rinos an exerise band!

I read somewhere that Reid has Terminal Pancreatic cancer. Can anyone verify that?

“I read somewhere that Reid has Terminal Pancreatic cancer. Can anyone verify that?”

Article on the FNC web page had him beating pancreatic cancer. A pc diagnosis is a bad beat. Chemo, radiation, Whipple procedure, are all tough and to get by them all successfully....double tough.

Don’t like the guy one little teensy bit. Kudos to his docs and nurses though.

Harry Reid is a liar.

Should be easy as can be to prove it in court and win the case for the defendant.

“Harry Reid is a liar.

yuuuup! Theraband is just that, a band. No handle, no attachments, nothing! If he misused it, it should be injury by misadventure.

The derp is strong in the old dingy harry.......

It was Hairy's fault for buying the one with the brother's fist attachment.

The article talks a little bit about his cancer fight. It was actually a fun read, mostly about picking the jury. Some of the prospective juror comments make this Nevadan proud.

Along with losing vision in his right eye, Reid suffered a concussion, broken orbital bones, severe disfigurement to his face, bruising and lacerations on his face, hand injuries, scarring and broken ribs.

All the result of a resistance band.

Sure.

Harry Reid and the Magic Exercise Band

I think they opened for Strawberry Alarm Clock in San Francisco back in '68.

Lol! Apparently he stuck the band on his shower door when the incident happened. I’ve never seen a shower door I’d ever think of using any force on! But to be fair to “The War Is Lost” Dingy Harry, I’ve never seen a whorehouse bathroom.

Reid told the Las Vegas Review-Journal in an interview last month that he was still blind in his right eye. When asked whether he was prepared to testify during the trial, Reid responded, “Whatever.”

What kind of answer is that? Is he 14? Does he care? Is he interested in the outcome? Sheesh!
