President Trump praised GOP Rep. Greg Gianforte on Thursday for body slamming a reporter while a candidate in Montana's 2017 special election, saying that "any guy that can do a body slam... he's my guy." Many harshly criticized Trump's remarks and said they will encourage future acts of violence, while some argued that such outrage is hypocritical in light of recent assaults perpetuated by left-wing activists.
