2016 ELECTIONS/CONGRESS/DEMS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/TRUMP PEOPLE: “Corey Lewandowski had a blunt message for Democrats on the House Intelligence Committee: He wasn’t going to answer their ‘fucking’ questions. Lewandowski, President Donald Trump’s former campaign manager, was the final witness in the yearlong House investigation that descended into vitriol and back-biting — ultimately resulting in two separate partisan reports that will leave the American public no closer to learning how the Russians interfered in the 2016 elections. But Lewandowski, who agreed to come back to the committee a second time in March after initially refusing to answer questions about topics occurring once he left the campaign in June 2016, was in no mood to give Democrats anything they wanted, saying he would only answer ‘relevant’ questions. And, according to four sources with direct knowledge of the situation, the Trump confidante repeatedly swore at Democratic lawmakers to make the point he wasn’t going to talk further. I’m not answering your ‘fucking’ question, Lewandowski shouted at one point.”
