Donald trump is standing by his man tonight even though his man, Campaign ManagerCorey Lewandowski, has been charged with battery against a reporter. It began as a he said she said when reporter Michelle Fields claimed lewandowski man handled her at a campaign event. He denied it and said she was delusional. But then there is the tale of the tape, and police say what they saw on that tape was real, leaving the architect of trumps bid for the white house in hot water and bolstering concerns about the tone and climate of this campaign. Nbcs Peter Alexander has details. Reporter police say the crime was caught on tape. This closedcircuit video shows Donald TrumpsCampaign ManagerCorey Lewandowski grabbing former breitbart reporter michelle [000 01 59;00] conference this month, lewandowski facing a criminal charge for battery or unwanted touching, a misdemeanor. The Police Report details an audio recording from fields iphone that night. I cant believe he just did, that fields says. That was so hard. Was that corey . Lewandowski turned himself in this morning to jupiter, florida, police and was released. His lawyers insist hes absolutely innocent. This afternoon trump defended his top aide. She was running up and grabbing and asking questions and she wasnt supposed to be doing that, and i think he should i told him. You should never settle this case. You should go all the way. I think they have really hurt a very good person. Reporter at the time fields tweeted this picture of her bruised arm tweeting i guess these just magically appeared on me. So weird. Lewandowski denied fields account calling her totally delusional, adding i never touched you. Today fields and trump going back and forth on twitter. Trump asking why arent people looking at this reporters earliest statement . Fields responding my story never changed. Seriously, just stop lying. Mocked fields and stood by lewandowski. Im sticking up for a person because im not going to let a persons life be destroyed. Reporter trumps hardcharging deputies had a series of runins with returnins on the trail with protesters recently grabbing one man by the collar and the press, threatening to confiscate a media members credentials if they left assigned press area. Multiple female members say they have received uninvite d overtures suggesting them as belittling. The campaign denied such behavior calling them baseless. In 1999 lewandowski, then a congressional staffer, was arrested after entering a Congressional Office building with a loaded weapon. Ultimately the Supreme Court denied his effort to get the gun back, but he was acquitted of any wrongdoing. Based on florida law, if convicted, Corey Lewandowski could be sentenced to up to a year in jail and the state Attorneys Office here in florida tells nbc news for a firsttime offender that type en peter, as you just showed us, trump is vowing to stand by his Campaign Manager and says he does not, quote, discard people. Nbcs katy tur has followed the Trump Campaign since the very beginning. Katy, any surprise that trump is not backing down here . Reporter i dont think we should be surprised by this at all. Trump has given every indication that he is standing by Corey Lewandowski. Take the progression on this incident alone. First donald trump said this absolutely did not happen, and then said there would be prove if it absolutely did happen and then he said Michelle Fields is the one who started it. Its the same sort of pushback i got from donald trump when i asked him if there would be consequences if these allegations turned out to be true. Now the question is will there be consequences at the voting booth here in wisconsin . As trumps Campaign ManagerCorey Lewandowski faces a battery charge. Thank you. Reporter donald trump charged on, campaigning in wisconsin today. Standing by his rightha after the alleged incident. So, you know, they had a lot of cameras there. I mean, if somebody went down, there would be pictures. Everybody has pictures. Reporter if it comes to light that something did happen, are you going to do something about it . Will there be so many sort of punishment . Supposing it comes to light that nothing happened, are you going to apologize to him for what youre doing . Reporter lewandowski has been seen by trumps side since the start and initially seen as a lightweight campaign aide, hes been on the verge of leading trump to the nomination, by doing what many wouldnt, letting trump be trump and as such the never back down campaign is sill not backing down, and neither are his supporters. Politics is a blood sport. Nfl players get away with it all the time. Reporter but his rivals sense an opening. Its a very sad development and this is the consequence of the culture of the Trump Campaign. When we see things that are very disturbing, we then take action, and i think thats what ne republican hopefuls converging on wisconsin. Because if we win wisconsin, its its like going to be over, pretty much over. Reporter a wild card state. Trump has the advantage of an open primary where anyone can change parties and sameday votes, but ted cruz leads polling, and today got the endorsement of Governor Scott walker on a local radio program. I just fundamentally believe that hoe is a constitutional conservative. Reporter gop insiders warning if there was ever a chance to stop trump, wisconsin is it. Lewandowski, the charges against lewandowski come at a particularly bad time for donald trump who is facing a significant gender gap. 70 of women nationally say they have an unfavorable view of donald trump. Its hard to imagine how allegations like these help that cause. As for his support here, i spoke to supporter after supporter who told me that frankly stuff like this just didnt matter to them.
