Hard to see how he can deny since multiple people have corroborated his story and there is evidently audio evidence.

That was very professional. Good on him.
he's simply following the example of the president of the united states

That was ''The Hostile Takeover'', how do we call Gianforte's bodyslam if it is even real and if it is a real hit instead of a little push? I think ''The Press Gaggle'' would be a decent name.

[QUOTE=Bob The Knob;52271196]This was just locker room talk[/QUOTE]
*locker room brawl.
Anyways I really want to see a video of this, I have a feeling this "body slam" is probably exaggerated, although any physical altercation should be a no-no if the opposing guy is only talking to you, and barely inflammatory as well. I could see him winning again though just because people will think its badass.

Bodyslam or no body slam dude definitely got assaulted. Sounds like way more than a push or whatever.
Gianforte for jail I guess
It's weird to have montana in the news like this right after the reveal of far cry 5
They're going full Kellyanne Conway on it, attacking the reporter's "aggressive behaviour" and claiming he was the one who grabbed Gianforte

Laughable considering the audio evidence

Got to make sure you get that [I]liberal[/I] keyword in...
was just looking into this special election cause I didn't even know anything about it, and they're holding this election because the previous guy went on to work for Trump, which left a vacancy.
Since he was Republican, if this dude loses this election because of the bodyslam, Montana switches to Democrat in the House it seems lol
That wasn't what was most interesting though, what I found funny was that this same guy who went on to work for Trump, Ryan Zinke, has a wife named "Lolita Hand"???

he is actually going to be in far cry 5 as a bruiser type enemy
We can just disregard that campaign statement, there's no need to debate it

All I hear from this, is that Ben Jacobs can't sell for shit. ''You just broke my glasses'' doesn't sell as well as ''BAH GAWD AS MY WITNESS, MY GLASSES ARE BROKEN IN HALF.''.

Your criticism is that he didn't whine hard enough?

BREAKING: Ben Jacobs reportedly burst into the room while Greg Gianforte was performing heart surgery on a wounded military veteran, and punched him in the face while demanding that he drop out of the race immediately. Gianforte pleaded for mercy but Jacobs had already been to his house and killed his entire family, and he then told Gianforte to say his prayers "like the dumb Christian you are" as he pulled out a gun. It was at this point that Abraham Lincoln was spontaneously resurrected and entered the room, body slamming the biased liberal reporter, who was heard to shout "Heil Hitler!" as he fell to the floor defeated. Lincoln then high fived Gianforte and said MAGA as he left the room through a nearby window.
