lorida police have charged Donald Trump's campaign manager Corey Lewandowski with simple assault in connection with an incident earlier in the month involving a reporter.

Police in Jupiter, Florida issued Lewandowski a notice Tuesday to appear before a judge on May 4 for the misdemeanor charge. A surveillance video released by the police appears to show Lewandowski grabbing a reporter for Breitbart News as she tried to ask Trump a question during a March 8 campaign event.

The police report states: "Lewandowski grabbed (Michelle) Fields' left arm with his right hand causing her to turn and step back." Fields showed police her left forearm which "appeared to show a grabbing-type injury," according to the investigating officer.

Donald J. Trump ‏@realDonaldTrump 3h3 hours ago Why aren't people looking at this reporters earliest statement as to what happened, that is before she found out the episode was on tape?

And Trumpettes are stilling crying about it.

TRUMP should have fun with this.

 

Stage a press conference without a raised podium. Mix in staffers with the reporters. Have your own cameras film wide from multiple aangles. And as the media jostle to get to the front and dare touch any of the staffers start racking up charges like a 80's video game.

 

HIGH SCORE !

Here is the man who helps keep Trump safe especially from Michelle Fields!!!!! David Martosko on Twitter: "UPDATE: Member of Trump's Secret Service detail confirms Fields touched Trump twice

Its a lesson to keep your hands off people who don’t want you to touch them.

Victory press conference was over.
Why is she allowed to grab me and shout questions? Can I press charges? pic.twitter.com/qbW2RjkINX— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 29, 2016

I looked at the video released by the police.

I don’t think he grabs her at all. I think he’s trying to keep up with Trump and slips between her the way you would in a crowd with people you’ve seen before. You reach out to keep a person from tripping while you’re moving through the crowd.

She did not lose her balance, get moved or anything. She simply was on one side of a people pathway a man was making to get to another point.

...would have been dismissed by everyone as a minor incident if the Trump campaign hadn't denied anything happened or attacked Fields.

Nothing happened so there was nothing to "admit" to. This is totally normal for a "press scrum".

That little skunkette picked on the wrong guys to pull her gender bullcrap. Sue till she’s begging coins under a blanket on a vent in Philly in February.

The Cruz worshipers don't have much to be happy about these days, between Corey Lewandowski being charged with misdemeanor assault in a case which is questionable at best (considering the lying drama queen making the charges) and Scott Walker endorsing Cruz in Wisconsin, they ain't got much.

They need to organize search parties after Heidi went missing first in New Jersey, then in New York:
