Donald Trump asks on his Twitter account whether he can press charges against Michelle Fields, as David Martosko of the Daily Mail prints purported quotes from an anonymous Secret Service agent in Trumps security detail claiming Fields was warned she was too close to the billionaire presidential candidate. From the Daily Mail: Republican front-runner Donald Trumps campaign manager Corey Lewandowski has been charged with simple battery for allegedly grabbing a reporter, in a case that may hinge on a Secret Service claim that the journalist first made unwanted physical contact with the billionaire-turned-politician. Victory press conference was over. Why is she allowed to grab me and shout questions? Can I press charges? Trump tweeted this afternoon. Victory press conference was over.

You really give women a bad name supporting the girl who cries wolf. She was out of line trying to force herself into Trump’s space, no apology is due her. I think she set this up to cry wolf once again.
No battery here, if this is considered battery by law there would have to be mass arrests everywhere a crowd gathers. No assault here either. There is nothing here, it is made up hogwash that amounts to nothing.
Hey Teach!
She touched me!
No I dint!
Yes you did!
No you touched me first!
Waaaahhhhh!!!!

I am sure he didn’t realize it even happened, she dramatized it to the point what she claimed didn’t happen. This is what she does, cry wolf. Those that support her are just grasping for something, anything.
“Commoners cant TOUCH, Royalty.”
Oh Brother. Why don’t we just get
Yeah, they should just roll over like every other Republican.
Good strategy.
You don’t think a woman can possibly be a danger to anyone?

I never said that. I only pointed out that the poster’s examples were all men because he referenced them with a word that rhymed with witch...
Facts will be ignored on this forum. Cruz has an election to gum up and he needs this issue and support from his followers to spread the word. Plus, Fields needs this issue. She has a book coming out in June.
IMO, Trump will press charges if the charge against his campaign manager is not dropped. The campaign manager will claim defense of another as a defense. You are allowed to protect someone being attacked who is not the aggressor at that moment, even if you are not private security or law enforcement.
Most people are repulsed by Cruz so that would probably never happen. On the other hand, there are crazies, out-of-control reporters, and irate husbands that could cause an issue.
“Took the law into his own hands” lololol
That usually means a parent guns down their kid’s molester.
In this case you are saying a person who crossed in front of someone and maybe tugged their sweater sleeve in the process,
“took the law into their own hands” Hilarious and absurd.
Based on your Ben Shapiro like idiocy, I just went full Dirty Harry getting off the subway this morning.
You are wrong. First, reporters covering candidates don’t deserve baby apologies because their sleeve is tugged.
Second, in this particular case she didn’t merit an apology AND she absolutely would have then charged him, using the apology to back her up.
If you look at her post non-incident behavior, and her history of false claims, that is obvious.
Doesn’t matter to the media which is out in full force to eliminate Trump from the race.
Cruz has already said Corey would have been under the bus, if he worked for Cruz.
This in spite of all available evidence that Fields trumped up the charge.
Some "principled conservative".
That's an asinine statement.
You must be one of the few Cruz supporters left, as you don't seem aware. Trump his family have been targeted, and received multiple death threats, some from billionaire drug kingpins, RNC types, Communist, leftist, MSM et al. This is not a secret.
It's interesting who you seem to align with.
