I think this is a situation the media used to get the Republican bases of Trump and Cruz going at each other. I believe everybody involved lied to some degree. I don't trust reporters as it is, and given our fantastic media's bent on bringing Trump or Cruz down I know they will go to any length to do so. When Michelle Fields posted the video of her arm being bruised, I became even more suspicious because it certainly would have taken a lot of strength to bruise it to the extent it was. If he just grabbed her and pulled her down as she proclaimed, she might have had a mark on her arm but I wouldn't have expected it to be bruised to the extent it was.

Corey's mistake was an outright denial that the situation happened. He is on record tweeting at Michelle Fields that he never touched her or even met her. I personally don't think that what he did was a big deal, but the fact that he denied even touching her is what hurts him in this situation. I think he just saw her approaching Trump and reacted, not sure what she was going to do.

All in all, both sides have erred. From here on out, any Republican camp needs to be careful of set up situations like this. I honestly wouldn't have expected this coming out of Breitbart (Michelle was a reporter there) who has actually given Trump pretty favorable coverage compared to some of the other candidates.

As for the analysts' opinions on the issue, TRT, I think both are at fault. Beck has certainly made his share of mistakes with his bias against Donald Trump but so has Sean Hannity in his bias for Donald Trump. I'm lightening up on Beck a bit since he has actually admitted his error and tried to change.

The bottom line, this whole election has me scratching my head. We are all acting like a bunch of liberals, the people we complain about for doing the same stuff we are.
