Very good he owned up to his mistake. He needs to realize that he's going to be under extra scrutiny from here on.

I think he was actually being harassed.

This was the right thing to do, unambiguously and in public.

Poor guy.

That reporter must have hit him in the head.

Not ENOUGH reporters get body-slammed.

The alleged ‘victim’ was the aggressor.

Never apologize. It’s a sign of weakness.

Notice how the AP characterized the news here: what matter is NOT that another Trump-supporting Republican beat a Pajama Boy Democrat. What matters is the “assault.” BS. I would go out of my way to vote for anybody who would take down one of our “journalists” this way.

On the Basis of the following statement:

“First, let me just say physical altercations — there’s never a call for physical altercations,” Ryan said when asked whether Gianforte should withdraw from the race.

“There is no time where a physical altercation should occur or just between human beings, so that is wrong and it should not have happened.

PAUL RYAN SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE. He is unsuited and unsuitable for any elected office wherein the safety of the United States is concerned.

He may be more comfortable among the pacifist Christians being slaughtered in the Middle East. He does NOT belong in a position responsible for any part of the safety of the United States of America.

If he would have spotted the pasty and finished kicking his a$$, the votes for his next election would be landslide. The reporter said something to really piss him off. They need to learn not to do that stuff, since it’s not taught on the playgrounds in grade school, anymore.

Jacobs, fake “reporter”, is a well-known Democrat activist in Montana, hired by the Leftist Guardian to set up Gianforte. This should be a warning to every GOP House member running for office next year. Expect to be set up and harassed everywhere you campaign and hire some expert campaign directors, not some cronies of the RNC.

How to make millions:

1) Move to a highly-conservative state
2) Run for Congress as a Democrat
3) Travel to Hollywood, San Francisco, Boston, New York City and Washington DC spouting whatever liberal nonsense you can - the more quirky, and clever, the better.
4) Spout Trump paranoia
5) Have virulent Trump-hating liberals flood your campaign with cash.
6) Lose the election by 30 points.
7) Retire*

*(or, if you still need more money, move to another conservative state and repeat the process)

Liberal tricksters baiting and baiting; need to keep them under camera surveillance at all times.

At one time this last-minute kerfluffle might have undone him.

But thanks to Democrats and their Early Voting scam, it’s getting harder and harder to pull-off an October Surprise.

I love it when a plan comes together and blows-up in their faces!

Beware this whole Public Lands movement. We were in Colorado this past weekend where they were celebrating their first annual Save the Public Lands day. It’s basically attacking everyone who wants to roll back the enormous amount of public lands seized by the Obama administration. I spent some time trying to figure out why he would do that and why the dems support it. It certainly made the developers happy since the land that they are gobbling up goes up in price. Any other thoughts?

I was forced to listen to Purlmutter. The moderator said he would take questions from the audience but then he spoke with the moderator and only took questions from him. One of them was what was being done about the oil and gas industry. He skirted that question like a pro. Of course he’s getting lots of money from them. Made me crazy.

Anyway, that’s the newest thing at least in the west - Public Lands. gag.

Gianforte told the crowd. "I should not have responded the way I did and for that I am sorry."

He responded to something the demonicRAT operative did? Ah. This is new information. Apparently FAUX News reporter Alicia Acuna forgot to mention what precipitated the takedown.

She made it sound as if the 'RAT operative was helping a little old lady cross the street or something and Gianforte walked up to him out of the clear blue sky and went all Berkeley protestor on him.

Just an aside to the wording.”——threw to the GROUND”. Why is it so often called ‘ the ground’ when it was the ‘floor’? They were inside and the ‘ground’ is outside.

This is a pet peeve of mine. Superfluous I know, but it always gets to me.
