Discussion: Report: Porter Told WH Aides That He Broke Ex-Wife's Glass Door By Accident

Or maybe reach over and pluck that stray hair off of Trump’s eyeglasses. That would be good for an intracranial hematoma.

It is physically impossible to be “tapping” with the index finger and have a knuckle make contact, unless the index finger is balled up in a fist.

WTF ever. Those don’t even pass the basic common sense test.

The only “good” thing in this particular sordid mess is we haven’t heard much more about FBI agents sexting

Domestic abuse isn’t funny, even when it happens to people we don’t like.

Harf harf, hit the bad women! C’mon.

How could the White House possibly fire someone with the superpowers of Rob Portman? The fucker must be one of the goddamned X-Men!

So what was the motive for photographing her black eye???

Both lunged for the vase, and Holderness fell and bruised her eye, Porter told White House staff

Sure, that seems credible. Ask any ER nurse or doctor who sees the same child over and over again who falls down stairs and manages to get a spiral fracture…

I know I always try to get documentary photos when I sustain my various vase-related injuries.

ETA: A spiral fracture (a.k.a. torsion fracture) is a bone fracture occurring when torque (a rotating force) is applied along the axis of a bone.

@thebigragu - and why wasn’t the vase in the picture?

Those photos bring good money on the black eye market.

I give it about 2 more days before the Trumpatistas start saying that Porter’s ex-wife got her black eye when a member of MS-13 pushed her down the stairs.

She fell off her bike.

I guess the part where injuries and damage are, one after another, explained away with stories that are so facially absurd that Brother William of Ockham appears before you in a puff of smoke, pulls his medieval razor out of his shoe and slices you the fuck up if you even think about believing one of them being a red flag for abuse eluded them.

ER staff, school teachers and cops all know this, but not the Best People, apparently.

In the history of mankind a total of 3 people have ever “lunged for a vase”. How convenient Porter’s ex was one of them.
