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.

Looks like the “we’re equal to men” little girls need to be relegated to TV shows and a distance from the issues.

Poor babies, they can only get noticed by claiming they were abused. More crap from the major media and their sycophants.

Yes in all the movies these 5’ 2” chicks can kick the butts of guys twice their size.

If I had been “assaulted” to the extent that I felt it necessary to file a police report, I would have been wincing in pain and checking my arm immediately for injuries. She seems unconcerned after the event.

The safety of Trump must be a constant worry for his staff due to death threats.

Look at the video yourself. He grabbed her arm, made her stumble and lied about it. Her story is supported by another reporter. The facts are there. Don’t believe them if you don’t want to but believe the lies about Cruz- inconsistent.

That interpretation of the video is a stretch. I see people passing through a crowd with the normal bumping and jostling. Assuming we haven't redefined the word, I sure as heck don't see an "assault".

n. The concluding stage of an attack in which close combat occurs with the enemy.

There are the charges from the police and the support of another reporter. Trump is supporting his campaign manager- only making his problem with women worse.

What you don’t believe that? Of course they can but it usually will take about four or five shots to get the guy to lie down at the proper time.

I really only works on film or against Rhonda.

Trump will, at the appropriate and just the right time, announced that he will pay for his defense, keeping the free advertising going

He will then speak about it, in whatever terms he deems will maximize publicity, winning more of the drama War

You just proved the absurdity this entire “incident”.

As for your ‘shove it’ comment....about what I’d expect from a cRuz enabler.

Take your own advice and put it where YOUR opinion is.

Fields probably talked to the legal geniuses Levin and Cruz.

How does someone chase this level of idiocy? Oh wait, I know...let’s bump this cheating story off the headlines.

He did grab her and pull her back and did not have the authority to do so. It is simple assault. Objectively, political support notwithstanding.

Thanks. I just thought it was pretty sad how people wanted to TRASH Field's character across the internet, just for talking about how she was grabbed hard enough to leave bruises.

It is a battery as defined by the law. Now Corey has to get into reasonable expectations, etc.

I would not ever be willing to hire this woman. She is sue happy and can just as easily sue her employer..ahem..Breitbart..I bet it is coming..

Name all of those who approached and/or were about to step inside the protective cordon of a Secret Service detail with the responsibility of protecting a Presidential candidate from any person, including journalists, who would accost the person they are protecting as bodyguards.

There should be no closed season on reporters.

I don’t disagree at all.

My point being that the women that was grabbed made no big deal about it. It was another reporter that actually reported it. The Women just asked for an apology.

The Trump Camp went into smear and cover up mode. Had they said he was just attempting to keep a save distance and sorry it probably would have been over.

Instead they trashed her as a drama queen that was no where near Cory. The Tape says different. A warrant was issued.

Let the Judge sort it out...

I would imagine the Judge will ask if the parties wish to meet to try to resolve this before a court date. If the Trump camp issues a Public apology it will probably be over. If not Cory gets his day.

“how she was grabbed hard enough to leave bruises.”

Was she, or did she bruise herself afterwards to create a story with herself as the victim at the center of the story? Don’t attempt to ridicule the idea given her past spectacular allegations against other celebrities.

Considering her aggressive behavior, she's lucky the Secret Service didn't knock her down. Obviously Trump must be protected from disturbed media weirdos such as "Stabby the Clown" and fellow travelers such as the nasty piece of work who filed this ridiculous charge.

Hmmmmm, HER aggressive behavior?

Yep, Trump MUST be protected from a little girl......ROFL

Well, I guess the law will get to decide about that, won't they?

The fact is, Cory DID GRAB her.....as the new video showed....and he's been charged.
