Ari Melber, host of MSNBC, threatened to sue Trump adviser Corey Lewandowski for defamation after Lewandowski accused him of calling Donald Trump's ear bandage a 'spectacle' post-assassination attempt. During a heated segment, Lewandowski insisted that Melber had made the derogatory comment, while Melber firmly denied it, asserting it was a false quote. Melber claimed he had quoted the New York Times, which described Trump as 'his own biggest prop,' and defended his remarks as misrepresented by Fox News. The exchange escalated on social media, with Lewandowski sharing video evidence that he believes supports his accusation. Melber warned Lewandowski that continued false claims could result in legal action, while the Trump campaign has not publicly responded to the incident. The confrontation highlights ongoing tensions between Trump allies and media figures.
