        There is as much evidence this was about this — https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/apr/28/greg-gianforte-republican-candidate-congress-russia-companies … — as there is evidence of Gianforte's statement. Slow down.

        The audio makes clear: (1) The questioning was about the CBO score, and (2) he didn't appear to really even know who Ben was.

        The unfortunate question I'm left with though is: will the kind of people who vote Republican care if their guy assaulted a reporter?

        And it was already close as it is, and he was a bad pick for the election anyway. Not good for MTGOP.

        Alicia Acuna, the Fox News reporter, wrote that she “watched in disbelief” as Gianforte then began punching the reporter.
