      Maxine Waters body slammed me and broke my glasses. Well, ok, she kind of brushed past me. But it hurt like hell.https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/871106174338203648 …

      Rep. Maxine Waters just shoved me and angrily stormed off as I asked her questions. (Not a violent shove but she initiated physical contact)

      I never claimed her "swat" or "shove" was remotely assaultive, just reflective of erratic, intemperate behavior.

          You deliberately went with "shove" to try and get attention, and now you keep changing your story because the internet has the receipts.

          She brushed off an annoying twit who was trying to be a bully. That's not erratic, it's sensible.
