According to Fox he grabbed him by the throat. That's aggravated and you're right, should have been charged as a felony.
-
Yep. He should have gone to jail.
-
If it hadn't gained national attention , he would not have been charged at all.
-
Probably not.

Even worse that campaign released fake statement blaming reporter to diffuse media situation before honest witnesses backed up the reporter.
-
Yes , if there hadn't been witnesses , the sheriff would have gone with the fake statement and charged the reporter with criminal trespass.
-
I agree with most, but idk about criminal trespass. It was a public event.

I wonder how many Trump voters will actually support what Gianforte did? 70, 80 percent?

Check the
@FoxNews account. They are pissed that they are reporting it. -
Yep. And so many of them are saying they'd do the same thing to a journalist. I feel like I have to take a shower after reading over there.

Turkish gov't was just in Washington for a Trump U refresher course on how to deal with differences of opinion. Gianforte was a
pupil.
