from her. No doubt, he grabbed her on camera with her husband not three feet away. This has nothing to with sex, its assault using a sexual touching as its weapon.

and Romney's wife did not say anything, that is low on her, and if she said something and Mitt did not smack him in the face, that is bad too. As a matter of fact, she should have turned and smack him right then, in front of everyone, that would have accomplished two things, one that Romney's popularity would have gone up the roof, and two that the man-child-groper would have been poblicly ridiculed and never been able to run for office.

To let something like this go for an endorsement says very little about the Romney, you don't sacrifice your integrity for an endorsement.

She moved her butt more toward him than away, and to my eye her facial expression didn't look discomfited. I think this is a case of believing is seeing. It could be a mistake to publicize this one as we are open to Ann Romney denouncing it as bullshit.

He's one of the more marginal progressives and has increasingly put out almost "alex jones" style click bait videos for attention. This is weak....and distracts...from creditable dialogue.

Ann Romney has multiple sclerosis. One of my dear friends has it as well, and she occasionally makes unexpected, jerky movements. Generally my friend's movements are hands, arms and shoulders, but any body part can have a sudden spasm.

I don't doubt that Trump could have grabbed Ann Romney right there on stage -- it seems like his sort of risky behavior. But there is another reasonable explanation. Only Ann Romney can tell!

Without a view from the side or from behind the podium it holds no water whatsoever.

This needs to go away, it only provides traction for those who claim dRump is being treated unfairly by the "haters".
