Republican Greg Gianforte was accused tonight of body slamming a far left Guardian reporter on a stage one day before the Montana US House Special Election.
Gianforte is running US House seat vacated by Rep. Ryan Zinke after his appointment to Secretary of the Interior.
Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs accused Gianforte tonight of body slamming him on a stage. Gianforte’s people said Jacobs grabbed the candidate’s wrist.

There is NO VIDEO – which is strange — but audio of the confrontation was uploaded on Youtube tonight.
Wow!
For some reason the far left is very upset about this alleged assault — unlike the hundreds of conservatives who have been physically assaulted over the past several months.
Trump supporters attending PEACEFUL rallied have been attacked violently.
Zero media outcry.#Gianforte https://t.co/A1krg6oRh0
