Failed Trump nominee Ed Martin spat on during live TV interview
Wild video footage has captured a shocking incident in which an enraged woman spat on Ed Martin, a failed Trump nominee lawyer, during a live TV interview. The incident occurred as Martin was discussing President Trump’s decision to withdraw his nomination to serve as the top federal prosecutor for Washington, DC, and instead choosing Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro.
In the video, Martin was in the middle of speaking when the unidentified woman suddenly approached him while walking a dog and began waving her finger in his face. The situation quickly escalated as the woman hurled insults at Martin before unleashing a large spit ball at close range. Martin was left speechless as the woman then walked away with her dog.
The disturbing interaction was met with outrage on social media, with many condemning the woman’s actions as that of a “crazed leftist” and “psychotic lib.” The incident occurred just hours after Trump announced his decision to withdraw Martin’s nomination, citing concerns about his lack of legal experience, divisive politics, and support for the January 6 rioters.
Despite the nomination withdrawal, Trump praised Martin as a “terrific person” and announced that he would be appointed as an associate deputy attorney general and pardon attorney. Martin’s tenure as acting DC US attorney is set to expire on May 20.
The video of the incident has garnered millions of views on social media, sparking a debate about civility and political discourse in today’s society. The shocking nature of the altercation serves as a stark reminder of the deep divides and tensions that exist in the current political landscape.
