@Bencjacobs Especially if he's convicted.

The Lewandowski-Fields incident has taught Trump national spokesperson Katrina Pierson a thing or two about political campaigns. Namely, that problems persistently plaguing your campaign are always someone else’s fault.

Katrina Pierson falsely claims that Michelle Fields didn't contact the campaign after Lewandowski grabbed her.

Katrina Pierson is insisting Michelle Fields "crossed the threshold of the Secret Service"

And speaking of crossing thresholds, Pierson thinks the media should back off:

Katrina Pierson says in light of this presidential campaigns "should change the rules about how much access reporters get"

“She asked for it” RT @Bencjacobs: Katrina Pierson presidential campaigns “should change the rules about how much access reporters get”

Katrina Pierson says Corey Lewandowski will stay on the campaign full time despite being charged

— Ben Jacobs (@Bencjacobs) March 29, 2016

And not only that, but:

When CNN’s Wolf Blitzer asked if Lewandowski would be fired in the event that he’s convicted of a misdemeanor for allegedly roughing up a reporter, Pierson replied “yes” without hesitation.

“Yes, absolutely. Mr. Lewandowski is an integral part of the team, the camp wholeheartedly supports him and will see him through the ordeal,” she said.

OK then.
