Corey Lewandowski, Donald Trump's campaign manager, was charged with battery today. He was supposed to appear on The O'Reilly Factor tonight but, apparently, has chickened out.
From TheWrap:
After booking Donald Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski and the former Breitbart reporter he’s accused of assaulting, Fox News tells TheWrap, Lewandowski has canceled his appearance on the network.
“Corey Lewandowski was booked exclusively for tonight’s show and the campaign subsequently canceled his appearance.” Executive Producer of “The O’Reilly Factor”Amy Sohnen said in statement on Tuesday.
TheWrap also notes that Lewandowski's accuser, Michelle Fields, is scheduled to appear on The Kelly File, immediately following The Factor.
I highly recommend this rundown of the Lewandowski saga in The Washington Post, by Philip Bump. He catalogs Trump's evolving excuses for Lewandowski's behavior, starting with Trump's insistence that nothing happened between Lewandowski and Fields which has now morphed into Trump accusing Fields of physically threatening him. Yet, as Bump points out, the Secret Service didn't seem to think so.
Bok, Bok, Bok!

The danger is to US … our democracy …economy … our way of life ..and a repeal of 20th Century American social progress!
GOP/Republican governance has been horrific in 21st Century America.
Examples:
Bush/Cheney 2000-2008
GOP/Republican led Senate and House 2010-present
GOP/Republican governance in the States 2010 -present all fiscal nightmares while repealing 20th Century social progress.
Be glad to provide specifics!
The longer Trumpster stays in the race the worse it gets for the GOP.
Alliterative spelling of a chicken’s clucking sound (as in Lewandowski’s a chicken)

Marco, I very much doubt there was any intention, or any possibility, of having them both in the same studio. A large proportion of Fox and other cable guest appearances are done via remote. Lewandowski in particular right now is pretty busy in Wisconsin and not going to fly by to NYC for an in-studio O’Reilly gig.
