That was one of the motives for bringing it up. I think Secret Service really dropped the ball on this one. Had she been a real threat she had ample opportunity to deliver anything she had on her person no matter how it might be disguised.
Honestly, the whole event is being used as a weapon and it appears her intentions are really no different than an assasin’s which is to take Trump out of contention by any means possible. She is just another of a thousand cuts against this man.
It’s the cover-up/denial that is being used against him at this point. If Lewandowski had simply owned his very minor act, none of this would be happening just now. But the need to be perceived as one who does no wrong (pride) has intervened and taken this to a place it didn’t have to go.

Perhaps and perhaps not. The candidate sets the tone in determining just how much contact with the public they are willing to risk or not risk. Most journalists are already vetted to some degree, but Michelle Fields pushed and violated the normal boundaries. It remains to be seen what the Trump and Secret Service response to Michelle Fields in future events and other journalists like her and Tellis. I mention Tellis, because reviewing the videos gives me the impression he was distracting Corey Lewandowski with conversation and perhaps one of the Secret Service agents to give Michelle Fields a few more moments of time to approach Trump.
