“What he did,” though, was just take notes as a reporter. He took notes then tried to leave with them, where he was accosted and threatened and told to delete the notes. When he continued to express a desire to leave and mentioned his kids, that comment came out.
I agree that it’s not as bad as the headline makes it sound. But it also doesn’t seem like the reporter did anything that he shouldn’t have done which would have given him reason to be accosted…
Charitable reading, this was just an off-the-cuff comment at the maturity level of, “I know you are but what am I?” where the aide used a quick comeback without thinking much about her words.
Oh absolutely, he shouldn’t have been accosted etc. But I really hate this clickbait nonsense, it’s irresponsible and part of why things are as bad as they are. Most people will look at the headline and think these people really are targeting reporters’ children etc. It’s lazy, irresponsible and is helping make politics as bad as they are.
