As part of our preparation for a special election, Faith, Keith and I arrived early to set up for the interview, Gianforte came into the room. We exchanged pleasantries and made small talk.
Ben Jacobs of The Guardian walked into the room with a voice recorder, put it up to Gianforte's face and began asking if he had a response to ....... the American Health Care Act. Gianforte told him he would get to him later. Jacobs persisted with his question. Gianforte told him to talk to his press guy, Shane Scanlon.
At that point, Gianforte grabbed Jacobs by the neck with both hands and slammed him into the ground behind him. Faith, Keith and I watched in disbelief as Gianforte then began punching the reporter. He began yelling something to the effect of, "I'm sick and tired of this!"
