Recently, Breitbart reporter Michelle Fields accused Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, of grabbing her so hard he left bruises on her arm. As Fields was attempting to ask Trump a question while he was leaving an event, it appears from video that Lewandowski grabbed her to pull her back from asking the question.
A reporter from The Washington Post is the one who told Fields that it was indeed Lewandowski who grabbed her. Fields admits she didn’t see directly who grabbed her because the coward did it from behind her as he was walking by.
You can watch an interview with Fields on the Kelly Report here:

Whether you believe Fields’ story or not isn’t the issue of this blog.
What is absolutely outrageous and despicable is Trump’s REACTION to the incident when asked about it by another reporter.
You can watch Trump claiming Fields ‘made the story up’ here along with other commentary:

This is a man who wants to be the leader of the free world and rather than simply say ‘we’re looking into the incident’ he says this woman simply made the story up?
How the hell can anyone justify that response? Trump could have given a non-response response to at least pretend he cares that there was a potential assault on a woman attempting to ask him a question.
Whether he believes her or not isn’t the issue. Whether Lewandowski grabbed her or not isn’t the issue.
It is HOW TRUMP REACTED that is the issue.
And it speak volumes about the kind of person he is.
