who was the comm staffer who pulled the mic out of Acosta's hands???

[Grasswire2]

Was it the new Hope Hicks, AKA Madelaine? Trump's new pants steamer?

That was outrageous, running up to Acosta and attempting to take the mic, then doing it again!

1. Can't wait to see

SNL skewer her. The flouncy outrage was amusing.

[RockRaven]

2. Whoever it was, they should be named and shamed.

Every time their name is mentioned in public, that incident should be referenced.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

3. Could it be

the same lady I harangued about on Oct 26th and got an email first warning about? First one in my life. I guess I/we should salute rude folks ripping away our institutions from us in the name of not cussing or calling the lady a the B word. The same woman who screams at everybody to get the hell out of the room when the russian says he's done. We are FAR too reticent to accept getting screwed.

4. They are a crazy bunch of fascists

The whole lot of them.

[Totally Tunsie]

5. She was up on her feet, ready to pounce on whoever was asking a question.

Noticed her many times. She must be Doturd's gatekeeper.

WH must figure if they put a woman in there to run interference, there'll be less chance of some counter action when she approaches, and that a man in the same position would be much more threatening. Let's just call it tRump's "kitty" solution.

I wonder if she's the same one that sheep herds the reporters out of the Oval Office when Doturd is done answering questions...the one with the shrill voice screeching "OK, everybody out. Time to get out. Let's go."

29. Plus, as we saw today...

If anyone tries to stop said woman from cutting them off, the WH can self-righteously ban them for "putting their hands on a woman."

[Hoyt]

6. She's just some low-level staffer trying her best. Her parents are probably white wing trumpsters.

[Tipperary]

9. Yes, she was totally into it.

I find that scary.

[hlthe2b]

7. I don't know, but she made me want to smack her (and I'm not a violent person)

[Codeine]

8. Microphone Maddie. nt

[Hassler]

[Cha]

25. Mic Maddie

[Grasswire2]

11. Is this her??

[Stinky The Clown]

15. Can't say for certain, but it sure could be.

[Hortensis]

16. We certainly know what physical type he likes.

Imagine they don't actually look alike in person, at least from the front.

[smirkymonkey]

17. A Hope Hicks look-alike.

Interesting. I'm sure she'll go far.

[Drumpf Nazi]

21. Like Joe Walsh said

I'm sure she already has gone pretty far with the Idiot.

[rzemanfl]

32. Worst username ever IMHO. n/t

[dixiegrrrrl]

19. Looks like her.

Same "look" as the rest of his barbie babes.

If it IS her:

( She) s paid $130,000 USD for the position.( as Admin. Assistant to Trump)
She is the only way to reach the president other than calling his cell phone, according to a story in the Washington Post

[Drumpf Nazi]

23. Interesting amount in the Idiot's World

$130,000.

[greyl]

22. No. nt

[A HERETIC I AM]

26. I agree. Not the same woman.

[Awsi Dooger]

24. I don't think that's her

Jaw looks different and not the small upturned nose of today's gal.

This AOL photo gallery had 3 of the best pictures I've seen in terms of making identification. Photos 1, 7 and 9

12. An ancillary junior floor nazi

and tRump administration flunkie

[Eko]

13. Missed this.

[Eko]

14. found it.

18. some day her kids will see this video.

27. The girl's an intern

What she was doing is her job so there won't be a mic drop. Trump made it a fight. I have no idea what interns earn other than the experience for her resume.

[Raine]

28. Agree

I don't see the point in dumping all over some intern whose job is to pass the mic from one reporter to another. It was obvious she was flustered and unsure about what to do.
