"I'm sick and tired of you guys...get the hell out of here...." As Gianforte knocked into Jacobs and did not deny he just bodyslammed Jacobs

.
@Bencjacobs offense was being persistent reporter asking about CBO score of health care bill (showing 25 million people losing health ins) -
Aside what this says about Gianforte's temperament and fitness for office, shows how toxic health care/CBO question is on campaign trail
-
And I attribute some of this to Trump and others demonizing journalists and the important work they do to protect our democracy.
-
Journalism is more vital---yet more dangerous---than it has been in the modern American era. Glad to hear
@Bencjacobs is okay. -
A huge number (by Montana standards) of votes in this election have already been cast by mail. So hard to say if incident affects outcome
-
I thought this story takes the CBO score out of the headlines. But since that's the reason for the bodyslam of reporter, it enhances it
