Tonight thug Corey Lewandowski tried to pull my gf @MichelleFields to ground when she asked tough q  Jamie Weinstein (@Jamie_Weinstein) March 9, 2016Say what you will abt Bush or even Obama. They would never tolerate this type of thuggery toward women https://t.co/EfbQH6tFM7  Jamie Weinstein (@Jamie_Weinstein) March 9, 2016The accusation was in reference to Michelle Fields, who is a reporter and pundit in the conservative media, whose work appears on Fox News Channel and on Breitbart.com.Earlier in the evening, Fields was clearly in the press area of Trump s press conference from the Trump International Golf Club in Florida, as she tweeted photos of the stage as well as the props of Trump Steak and Trump Water that was being setup by the candidate s team.Back in FL tonight for @realDonaldTrump's press conference at Trump International Golf Club pic.twitter.com/tfx6pYFGLV  Michelle Fields (@MichelleFields) March 9, 2016Trump trying to woo reporters one pig in a blanket at a time pic.twitter.com/wxwCYcD8P9  Michelle Fields (@MichelleFields) March 9, 2016The Trump  thug  that Weinstein was referencing is Corey Lewandowski, who is the campaign manager for Trump s presidential campaign.Lewandowski comes from the world of conservative politics. He recently served as the New Hampshire director for Americans for Prosperity, the Koch Brothers financed group that pushes and promotes the interests of the two right-wing brothers in multiple states.The campaign manager made waves earlier in the campaign season when he reportedly threatened Fox News  Megyn Kelly after she clashed with the candidate.Kelly was set to anchor a second debate in January. As Fox tells it, Lewandowski warned them that she had a  rough couple of days after that last debate  and he  would hate to have her go through that again . Like his boss, Lewandowski s creed is  respond to every slight in kind    and then some.Weinstein also argued with several Trump fans on Twitter after revealing the allegation, with several of them claiming either she deserved it or disputing whether the incident had happened at all.@TotesMcGotes @MichelleFields go to hell. It was after he press conference ended.  Jamie Weinstein (@Jamie_Weinstein) March 9, 2016Trump has had problems with female voters, even in contests where he has had strong victories. He also has a track record of verbal attacks on several notable women, including Carly Fiorina, the aforementioned Megyn Kelly, and comedian Rosie O Donnell. Maybe his campaign manager is just taking after the boss.Featured image via YouTube
