Guy, I won't disagree that the guy seems to also be a tool!
But the reporter appeared to be trying to provoke an incident... alter an election... secure a seat... and violate what he is supposed to be doing... covering a story not creating it. All in the name if "liberal goodness.... anything is therefore justified." The same thinking that exterminated, what, 100 million people in the last century? In the guise of communism, socialism and national socialism?
I am FINE with you good people of Montana voting him in to, again, reject the Pelosi/Schumer/Soros/Antifa philosophies that are an anathema to our Constitution and Republic.
And as for all the whining about a little 'hands-on?" Well, Mr. "He broke my glasses" should have learned manners and decorum... and that his job was to report the news, not tell slogan-mouthing lemmings what to think or to act as an agitator, trying to provoke the response he got... and torpedo a candidate. Because if you think that reporter didn't set that whole thing up to try and discredit Gianforte, I have this bridge to sell you in Square Butte...
As for Gianforte being an asshat? Well, he'es a now Congressman, isn't he? Doesn't that, by definition.... well, you get my drift.
Cheers,

P.S. I don't think that seat was ever in real jeopardy. He won by 8 +- points... Which is about right, considering that the alt.left is pouring money and resources in and all the moonbats in Montana (apparently there are a few) were highly-motivated, triggered, agitated, spun up, organizing, seance-ing holding voter drum circles and likely voting twice. I could have told you weeks ago that the polls putting them 'neck in neck' were utter blather. But the press needed a story to keep us tuning in... and to keep the lefties pouring in money and give them hope. The soap opera had to be played for another episode... or maybe Kubuki theater is a more apt term? If the uber-left thinks they are going to win back the House and Senate in some kind of 2018 boomerang to the days of Woodstock and Abby Hoffman... I daresay I predict an entirely different outcome.
