Reporter Michelle Fields on Monday said Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign cannot treat Donald Trump as the former secretary of State's equal.
“You see the Hillary Clinton campaign, they need to make sure that they don’t treat Trump as serious candidate,” she told host Chris Hayes on MSNBC’s “All In." "[It is] not to normalize Donald Trump. Treat him as though he is just this reality show star that’s unfit to be president.
Kris Jenner, she created the Kardashian empire. That doesn’t mean she’s fit to be president just because she has good business sense. Don’t talk about him as though he’s a regular candidate who’s fit to be president, because he’s not. That’s the case the Clinton campaign ought to be making.” Fields inspired national headlines earlier this year, when she worked for the conservative site Brietbart, after she experienced a physical run-in with Trump’s campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski.
Police in Jupiter, Fla., in March charged Lewandowski with simple battery after Fields said he forcefully grabbed her arm as she tried to ask Trump a question.
Authorities in Florida last month formally declined to prosecute Lewandowski over the encounter.
Reports emerged on Sunday that Fields is now covering Trump and the GOP for the liberal-leaning Huffington Post.
Fields on Monday said Clinton must not let Trump’s focus on her husband’s past sexual misconduct rattle her.
If this name, Michelle Fields, sounds familiar, it's because she's the one who accused Trump campaign manager, Cory Lewandowski, of assaulting her when he pulling her back by her arm when she was attempting to question Donald Trump. [charges the Florida AG decided not to prosecute]
Now she fancies herself as able to give advice to Hillary camp on how to defeat Donald Trump! "Don’t talk about him as though he’s a regular candidate who’s fit to be president, because he’s not."
