I found it telling that he's not moving to Washington. He knows as well as anyone that he just took an 18 month temp job.

He's not moving to DC, because he loves MT, loves the outdoors, doesn't want to live in DC, I assume his wife doesn't want to go to DC, his kids were all raised in Bozeman, he wants to stay closer to his constituents, and he has the money to travel. He could easily move to DC, even if he thought he would be there for only 18 months.


Or perhaps he doesn't want to move for an 18 month gig. Either way.

Look at Tanner Thelen's video report on his Facebook. He's goes or went to MSU. Was at GG HQ. Saids that GG absolutely didn't grab the reporter by the neck or punch him. Says the reporter was escorted out of the office by a campaign person, was absolutely fine, was talking to another reporter as if he was colluding with her, started tweeting as he left the HG. Says the Fox reporter's account is completely inaccurate.

I just watched Gianforte's apology from his acceptance speech. Either PR's wrong, or Gianforte was being insincere for political expediency

You can be sorry for pushing someone down who had it coming and be sincere. Jeez the glass house brigade is out in full force on this one.

Buy the guy new glasses, pay for his ER bill and no harm no foul. GG is no Sean Penn, who seems to get a pass for physicality when the paparazzi gets to him.
 
We should do a poll: which of PR's conspiracy theories is most believable?
A) Giantfart,eh? was set up
B) Traitorak's strip club fiasco was set up
C) the bobcats don't suck

Personally I thought Gianforte was being sincere, and I highly doubt he would have apologized to the Fox crew if he felt their account was "completely inaccurate." Gianforte himself acknowledged he was wrong, and it's kind of ironic that some supposed Gianforte supporters won't accept what he had to say
 
I have lived out of state for 34 years so I have no horse in this race but I would believe that GG's supporters may not wish to accept what he is saying because they may believe that he is capitulating mostly to put this behind him. They would rather he duke it out "Trump style". Perhaps GG is smart enough to know when to cut his losses and if so perhaps he can salvage some of the short time he has to accomplish something. Regardless, you can't un-ring a bell and this will be his albatross from here on out.
 
Don't know Gianforte. Not going to comment on his "personality"

Like some of his stances, Dislike others.

Only people who know what happened were in that room. It will work its way out without any help from us. We are just speculating.

I saw his apology and I respect the heck out of him for doing it and doing it publicly. Takes a man to do that in a room that would have cheered him loudly if he would have said the reporter had it coming. Good on you Greg. Maybe he can rub off on both sides of the aisle in DC and even our President.

I hate when people who were born in Montana judge those that weren't for having the nerve to be born somewhere else and move to this beautiful state. Who cares. You live here, you contribute, you become a resident, you are a Montanan. I was born here, but my parents weren't. They moved to Montana because Montana is what Colorado USED to be. My wife was born in California. Has been here 25 years and worked for the State of Montana for almost that whole time. I think that qualifies her to call herself a Montanan.

I like Tru too. He was a great Griz and has done well for himself. I hope he continues to do well for years to come.
 
I think Gianforte is just what we need, another billionaire in Washington, D.C. :roll: Why, he's a Job Creator, dontcha know, and he's gonna get together with President Orange and create some real American jobs, not those pansy-assed European-style sissy jobs, like the robot jobs in the BMW plants. Wait, what? BMW assembles cars in Greer, South Carolina? You gotta be shittin' me! Never mind.

No. I only speak with people I respect.
 
Speaking of nut jobs, Ursa, I saw an article today on MSN that you went all Lamar Odom and tried to back your semi-truck into the beloved Bunny Ranch...?!?! What the hell, man, you trying to ruin it for the rest of us? Pull your shit together! In the words of our new leader, "You're just like the last guy! Get the hell out of here!"
 
I might have a few years but if he grabbed me, I'm getting my pound of flesh and he would know it. But hey enjoy your time there GG and say hi to Betsy, you have lots in common and not much time to ruin local education.

You don't know Tanner Thelan (I do, and I know his family; great family), you don't know where he was or who he talked to, and don't know if he was standing at the partially open door looking in (just like another female reporter said she was doing). You apparently as unaware that the reporter in question has said that GG did in fact try to grab his phone and also admitted that he didn't really know if he had been punch.

That Fox reporter sure is walking back some of what she said. She said backed off saying the GG had grabbed the reporter's neck, saying she didn't know if he dad and that he may have had his hands on the reporters clothes. That is backing off. Here are her later quotes:

"You know, and I'm the one who said that," Acuna replied. "I saw both his hands go up, not around his neck in a strangling type of way, but more just on each side of his neck, just grabbed him and I guess it could've been on his clothes, I don't know." "Again, just to clarify, he didn't grab him by the neck with both hands in the way that was initially described, that's not quite accurate," Ingraham asked at the end of the interview." "​No, so it wasn't like he grabbed him around the neck, he had one hand on each side of his neck," Acuna confirmed."

That is backing off. http://www.lifezette.com/polizette/bombshell-montana-assault-witness-changes-story-admits-no-neck-grab/

It looks like Thelan is indicting that the reporter and another reporter were getting their stories straight as the reporter walked out of the HG to hop into the ambulance.

The reporter is a big faker. Probably a little wimp like yourself. Wouldn't take much knock either of your over. Maybe the reporter even flopped."Body slammed"? Ya, right.

argh, you are the stupid one, on this subject. I assume GG's lawyer will look at the interview summaries of the 3 Fox reporters, and others, to see how much they vary. I'd like to hear the full tape too, and not just what the reporter released to the media (or edited and released to the media).

You even sound like a party stooge but hey you love him because everyone protects their niche. I happen to have a little more class and upbringing than to fall for that demagoguery.

I protect friends and people I respect, as well as family. Class has nothing to do with it. GG is not a demagog in any respect. When posters like you say stuff like, it shows me a high level of stupidity. Like the joker who has asserted that supporting GG means the supporter has no integrity. My view is that people who supporter someone who doesn't pay his bills, pay his taxes, report his income, etc., i.e. has questionable integrity, are the ones who ought to check their own level of integrity.

Just say this quote from an out of state Repub political operative: "Quist is a glorified homeless person who raised $7M and is still going to lose."

From the linked:
At that point, Gianforte grabbed Jacobs by the neck with both hands and slammed him into the ground behind him. Faith, Keith and I watched in disbelief as Gianforte then began punching the man, as he moved on top the reporter and began yelling something to the effect of "I'm sick and tired of this!"

By the way, this eyewitness account comes from a Fox News reporter....sorry Jack, I think your boy f*cked up.

Except the reporter now backtracks:

A Fox News reporter is walking back an account of an incident between Greg Giaforte and a Guardian reporter, according to Lifezette. Alicia Acuna was a guest on the Laura Ingraham Show. Acuna and two Fox associates initially said Gianforte put both hands on the reporter’s neck.

“You know, and I’m the one who said that,” Acuna replied, “I saw both his hands go up, not around his neck in a strangling type of way, but more just on each side of his neck, just grabbed him and I guess it could’ve been on his clothes, I don’t know.”

Ingraham asked Acuna if that meant she was changing her story.

“Again, just to clarify, he didn’t grab him by the neck with both hands in the way that was initially described, that’s not quite accurate,” Ingraham asked at the end of the interview.

“​No, so it wasn’t like he grabbed him around the neck, he had one hand on each side of his neck,” Acuna confirmed.



But you won't see this on the afternoon or nightly news.

Good luck getting this charge to stick now that the eyewitness has admitted embellishing her story.
I'm sure it's been established but that's not a backtrack [emoji849]

It's still assault

Nope. Backtrack. Clear backtrack. Fox reporter first said GG grabbed him by the neck with both hands and threw him down. Now backtracking on grabbing by neck. Big difference. Yes, it can be misdemeanor assault to grab someone and throw them down. We agree on that.

Are you going to tell us you, your friends or someone in your family never grabbed someone and threw them down (other than playing around)?
