(NBC) "The adviser to former President Donald Trump said he stopped at the ShopRite to campaign for son, Andrew, who is vying for the Republican nomination for governor of New York, and was talking to people when he felt the smack on his back."

"Giuliani stumbled a step or two forward but did not fall, he said."

"The employee, Daniel Gill, 39, was charged with second-degree assault, according to the New York City Police Department."

"Giuliani believes Gill should be fired from his job and said, 'Darn right, I think he should be prosecuted.'"

“'This guy should be imprisoned to say to other people, '[It's] over, doesn’t happen,' he said. 'I believe you let Mr. Gill go, a lot more of these crazy pro-choice people are going to start attacking people.'"

he was "in pretty good shape"

Didn't an elderly man get a "pat" on the back from a cop at a BLM rally a few months back and did crack his skull. Goes to show you that Dems are built out of more sturdy stuff than those snowflakes.

The videos are going around today. Someone walked past Rudy, tapped him on the shoulder to get his attention, and then called him a scumbag.

Rudy had the guy arrested -- I appreciate that it's not cool to touch someone without their permission, but Rudy is now trying to make out like he was brutally assaulted by someone who walked up and punched him full force. He said it caused tremendous pain and he almost fell down. The video shows a gentle pat on the shoulder.

Here it is:

It's just one manufactured scandal after another. It's never a good idea to put your hands on another person, but this is just so laughably lame.
