A prominent radio talk show host also got caught in the Michelle Fields media hoax, but isn’t man enough to admit it and apologize to this listeners.
I have not seen any evidence that Leandowski grabbed Feilds.
At most, he appears to have brushed by her.
Why does it matter? I would say a conspiracy by several in the media and several media outlets, including the Washington Post, to take out a Republican frontrunner’s campaign manager, is a pretty big deal.
It is a direct subversion of the democratic process, and it lays bare the way the media cartel has been dominating the electoral process for decades.
So, yes, I would say it is a very big deal.
Thanks for the link . I finally think I understand this fiasco .
There is a video that makes it clear he grabbed her. Absolutely clear. But, like I say, this is a tempest in a teapot all around. This kind of crap drags the whole process into a ditch filled with pig shyte. It doesn’t gain anything and in the end, the dems have the satisfaction of watching the quadrennial Republican circular firing squad. Except this year, with Donald adding his powder to the ammo, the firing is way hotter and bigger rounds, too.
“There is a video that makes it clear he grabbed her. Absolutely clear.”
I would love to see it.
You must have a link, or a source. It would clear up a lot.
The videos that I watched show no such thing, but I am willing to look at one that does.
The clearest video that I found shows the campaign manager brushing by Fields. That is it.
It never stopped.
No. It was an orchestrated fake accusation that is par for the course for Anti-Trump slime.
That is the video I watched. It does not show that Fields was grabbed. I do not even see an indication that she was grabbed.
Have you watched the video? Lewandowski walks right by her. He does not slow down; she does not wince or flinch, pull away, or stumble.
His hand is extended back toward her as if he is brushing by her, turning his right shoulder back to do so.
The video completely disproves her narrative.
What do you see there?
This is sounding more and more like Seinfeld and the Magic Loogie...;-)

Respectfully disagree. If you watch her motion, she is moving right to left in the frame. As Lewandowski passes between her and the camera, you can see her leftward motion stop abruptly and she is moving slightly back to the right, exactly as one would if someone was holding them or tugging them to stop them and move them back. Together with another video that clearly shows him reaching for her arm, I don’t have the slightest doubt that he did grab her in some fashion. But, as I say, I don’t see the big deal in it.
Her supporters are trying to make a big deal about it against Trump and Trump supporters are trying to make a big deal about it showing this person and a lot of media figures are doing heinous things to try to interfere with Trump’s march to the White House. Both are disgusting.
Yes. Yes. Trump good. Everyone one else, slime. All opposition or question of Trump slime. All people like Trump very good. I’m so sick of this vicious neanderthal matrix of kill or be killed. Frankly, I’m not criticizing Trump here: just his acolytes, who rabidly attack anyone who, in slightest manner fails to show absolute loyalty to the leader.
Show the proof. So far it has not been shown he did any such thing.
If Trump hadn’t been accused of promoting violence at his rallies she wouldn’t have felt the need to claim she was violated.
I am kind of neutral on Trump, in that I prefer Cruz, so I am not a fanatical Trump supporter. But, if it happened as you say, then Fields is definitely lying, which is a big deal.
Lewandowski’s hand is hidden by the person in the camera shot, and the Washington post will not release the camera shot in the best position to see what happened.
The cameraman first claimed he was not even at the event; then that he did not see anyone assaulted.
If it happened as you claim, at most,there was no assault, simply the ordinary interaction at such an event.
That makes it a conspiracy by several in the media to take down Trump by taking down his campaign manager.
The initial event was likely a nothing burger. I think we both can agree on that, but that is what makes the conspiracy even nastier.
It shows the power of the media to take down politicians or their support staff on nothing burgers. That is a big deal.
Do I wish the attempt to take down Trump had not happened?
Absolutely.
I have also learned to be very cynical about what the old media tells us.
Because of the nature of this event, it is unlikely to harm Trump. He may actually gain support from it.
But Fields and Shapiro and a couple of others have lost their jobs, which is good. Some people at the Washington post should lose theirs as well.
I occasionally see him on Red Eye. Never liked the guy. Weinstein hails from the same school of thought as McCain and Graham.
“Respectfully disagree. If you watch her motion, she is moving right to left in the frame. As Lewandowski passes between her and the camera, you can see her leftward motion stop abruptly and she is moving slightly back to the right, exactly as one would if someone was holding them or tugging them to stop them and move them back.”
We will have to disagree. I have watched the video seven more times. I do not see any “abrupt stop”. She is actually moving from left to right in the frame. If you look at the wall as a reference, you can see that is so.
Like you, I’m not seeing what others have claimed they see.
In two other videos there was nothing.
Suddenly this video surfaced with an “aha, here is the smoking gun!” — we don’t even see her talking to the other reporter who SHE suggested the name of Corey, to.
I’m not sure I understand why there are only 3-6 seconds of video being produced.
Megyn Kelly is all over this story, and she’s doing an absolutely terrible job of producing the documentation that proves anything. (We, the viewers-understand she already has concluded Michelle Fields was assaulted.)
The fact Megyn Kelly is once again dedicating a whole show to this shows how much she is in the bag for the establishment. The next Fox debate will be brutal for Trump as I expect they will come after him full throttle.
