Outgoing Virginia Governor Says He'd Deck Trump if Provoked
I've often wondered if I could control myself in a face to face with 45.
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Outgoing Democratic Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe told a national television audience he'd knock President Donald Trump to the floor if the president ever tried to intimidate him.
During an interview Thursday on MSNBC's "Hardball," Chris Matthews asked McAuliffe how he would respond if Trump tried to intimidate him during a debate by hovering over him, as he did in a 2016 debate with Hillary Clinton, a close friend of McAuliffe's.
McAuliffe responded: "You'd have to pick him up off the floor."
