Gianforte reportedly bodyslams reporter

[user12345]

Wow.... This guy really has some serious anger issues. Even Trump can contain himself more than this. Hope he ends up in jail if it was him that body slammed him.

[TheSaint250]

Warning-crazy theory ahead: Wouldn't it be funny if this somehow wins him the election? Trump voters hate the media and unless there is literal video, they'll likely shrug it off. Still a douche move. Battery or violence is never, ever acceptable.

I just said it in another thread. If Donald “I could shoot someone on Fifth Avenue” Trump is the president this is nbd.  Gianaforte wins tomorrow.

So you're comparing someone just saying something that is obviously not true to someone actually body slamming and harming a reporter? Give me a break

What a load of BS!

Someone should look up the definition of the word body slam.

indeed...sounds more like a side slam (known as a Rock Bottom when Dwayne Johnson does it).

Johnson/Hanks 2020

Probably not even a side slam. Maybe a side shove and this guy tripped over his own feet. This guy Jacobs sounds like a monster cuck.

That is not the point. The point is that the electorate is desensitized to this sort of thing and especially among voters who may perceive the media as elitist or some pejorative.

Reporters freak out if they get touched or heckled. As noted, he got side slammed, not thrown over Gianforte's head like the girl from King Kong. I'm not happy about it, but this guy sounds like he's really over exaggerating this. Look how butt hurt CNN gets when their reporters are challenged.

You f**ks will justify anything. That's fine, I guess, just time to punch back.

How would you feel if someone side shoved you into a glass wall and injured you? Jesus this country is losing it's damn mind.

[emailking]

Castigating this guy and calling him a cuck because he called it "body slam" instead of a "side slam" is nothing but pure victim shaming.

[Brittain33]

This is going to push the CBO score off the front page of Montana's newspapers.

[The_Doctor]

I hate to sound political but if Quist wins tomorrow, that will upend DC quite a bit, especially if Ossoff wins later. I'm glad Ben Jacobs is OK (and think Gianaforte DQ'd himself) but politically speaking, the GOP is going to freak out if Quist wins tomorrow. The legislative effects (plus the investigation) could be impacted.

Like, AHCA.

[Horus]

I don't really see this changing anything, things are just too polarized these days. Gianforte will win comfortably.

Le Pen will come within single digits.

That's exactly what Gianforte did.

Oh WOW.

What is the usual police procedure here? If they were making an arrest, when would they do it?

[Sprouts Farmers Market ✘]

Wow, this gives me confidence that no matter what happens tomorrow, Montana will have a great man representing them in Congress. Every state deserves an election between two great candidates like this. Still leaning Quist but very tepid support now.

Violent Greg is a dangerous snowflake.

What a godsend this might be.  Praise Kek.

The question is, why did he do it? Usually people only lose their temper if in a bad mood. Surely he must have thought, tomorrow I'll win, I just have to make it one more day to have my vindication. Or does he know some internal polling we don't know?

You'll have to understand, krazen is a BETA NU-MALE CUCK whose sole reason for being here is to compensate for himself.

CBO score came out today. Audio was leaked showing Gianforte supporting it a month ago. Gianforte surely hoped to get through without having to answer for that sh!t sandwich, and lost his temper.

Gianforte lost Krazen's vote sounds like....next time he should at least knock him unconscious.
