Man seen exhaling on women outside Trump golf club charged

Source: ABC News

STERLING, Va. -- A man seen forcefully exhaling on two women outside President Donald Trump's Virginia golf course has been charged with assault.

Raymond Deskins, 61, was charged with misdemeanor assault after a private citizen obtained a warrant through a county magistrate, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office said Sunday. Deskin did not immediately return a request for comment.

Video widely shared on social media shows Deskins blowing air on two unidentified women after one of them asks him to get away and points out that he's not wearing a mask.

“That's assault” one of the women said afterwards.

The two women were protesting against tRump outside his golf club, and Deskins had on a tRump shirt and "an inflatable pool tube with Trump’s likeness on it around his waist".

when some one sneezed the courteous reply was 'God Bless You'.
This was because after a sneeze they figured you had about 24hrs to live.

Their antics are so childlike and often goofy. An inflatable pool tube with Trump's likeness? What is suppose to be the point of that? Who was he trying to impress, an eight year old?

These smart ass, irresponsible and wreckless SOB's need to be held to account. This is NOT a joke. This is real, and this is deadly.

Of these people...

There will be no getting thru to people like this. In a few weeks DT may be gone from the WH but what he has started is going to be around for a long time.

These kind of "ow my back" guess i'll do construction disabilty cheats really piss me off. First, their fraud makes it difficult for those who really need it to get it, because the system is looking for cheats. hey, you want the pittance the gov't hands out? Help youself. Let's make sure you're really ssdi worthy disabled. I would start by pulverizing your ankles. Yeah, you'll spend the rest of your life in a chair, but you still have your arms and faculties.

Sorry if that seems unduly violent or harsh, it could be residual anger from my TBI and coma that left me barely able to walk, even with a cane when i was an almost pro-level cyclist. It's kinda personal for me and can raise my hackles. So someone like this clown smugly wet exhales on me, it's time for the Plague Doctor (my alter ego, i have beak mask and everything) to get a little medieval on yer ass. Getting maced in the face should keep you occupied while i play with you and my winter cane,(my winter cane is named Ragnar, he's modeled after a viking battle ax.) It'll be fun. Trust me.

peace,
Noodleboy
