Audio in link. She should never be allowed around Trump again.

[ComputerGuy]

Trump appeared to struggle for a second or so, but he kept his cool. Good for him.

[BenLurkin]

Gads. What a mugface.

[drwoof]

‘Plain’ looking, as they used to say...

[joshua c]

has she apologized?

[AnotherUnixGeek]

NPR and PBS should not receive another penny from taxpayers. Conservatives have been talking about this since I was a kid - I can remember Reagan talking about it. Trump should be the POTUS who finally makes it happen.

[vpintheak]

I suspected this wasn’t an accident, pretty much confirmed now.

[gundog]

The proverbial “face for radio....”....

[frank ballenger]

For some reason this reminded me of director Martin Scorsese being warned by Mick Jagger in Shine A Light (2006) that his crew using microphones on poles and especially moving ones overhead on cables onstage could hit someone and seriously injure them. Jagger was overruled.

[PGR88]

why do they always look like this?

[Strict9]

he is not a handsome gent.

[frank ballenger]

So is this like the woman runner “accidentally” hitting the other runner and giving her a possible skull fracture?

[Cowgirl of Justice]

Looks intentional.

She needs to be BANNED for life.

[Puppage]

She got a face like a ripped boot.

[Cold_Red_Steel]

Looks just like the north end of a south bound mule!

[frank ballenger]

Long overdue.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

But... but... troll poster and the democrat colon inspectors assured us it was just a purely unintentional accident!

[frank ballenger]

The first dozen or so stories on my search said “accidentally” as though this were proven fact. It is an opinion and shouldn’t be given that level of acceptance.

But their characterization of Trump giving her a “death stare” going viral is just as bad.

What if they were at a gathering and someone hit them in the face when local news covered something in their neighborhood?
Wouldn’t be so easy to shrug off.

“If my dog looked that ugly I’d shave his rear end and teach him to walk backwards.”
Folk saying.

[Palio di Siena]

Uglier than a mud fence.
Uglier than 50 miles of bad road in the winter.
