Donald Trump's spokesperson flatly denied on Thursday that campaign manager Corey Lewandowski roughed up a reporter for the conservative website Breitbart, and suggested she was fabricating the incident in a desperate bid for attention. A roughly two and a half minute audio recording of the incident obtained by POLITICO — while not definitive — supports the reporter's version of the events, which were witnessed by Washington Post reporter Ben Terris. A transcript of the alleged altercation between the reporter, Michelle Fields, and Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, follows below, along with her conversation with Terris: *** Din of people talking, clanking of glasses, snippets of conversation, reporters telling one another to 'move up a little', greeting each other, saying 'good to see you' saying 'OK good quote then', then clearly action picks up as cameras start clicking. Fields: “Mr. Trump, you went after the late Scalia for affirmative action, do you -- are you still against affirmative action?" Voice (allegedly Corey Lewandowski): “Excuse me, thank you.” A few moments later (noise of the room can be heard)... Terris: “You OK?" Fields: “Holy sh*t." Terris: “Yea he just threw you down." Fields: “I can’t believe he just did that that was so hard. Was that Corey?" Terris: “Yeah, like, what threat were you?" Fields: "That was insane. You should have felt how hard he grabbed me. That's insane. I’ve never had anyone do that to me from a campaign." Terris: “Can I put that in my story?" Fields: “Yeah, go for it — that was really awful. That’s so unprofessional.” Terris: “He really just almost threw you down on the ground." Fields: “He literally went like this and was grabbing me down. "I don’t even want to do what he just did to me. Oh my God, that really spooked me that someone would do that." Terris: “What threat were you?" Fields: “Nothing. I was asking about affirmative action." Terris: “And he probably knows you, right?" Fields: “Yeah, I don’t understand. That looks horrible. You’re going after a Breitbart reporter, the people who are nicest to you?" Terris: “I know, I’m going to put it in my story." The two stop talking. Din/noise of people talking, glasses clinking continue through end of the recording. Poster Comment:

Coincidentally, Trump is blocking the shot with a sign while his campaign manager works her over with brass knuckles. A preview of the forthcoming police state if Donald Trump gets elected.
She WOULDN'T have been in the story if the bloviating gas bag you support had enough sense to pour urine out of a boot.
