https://www.pressherald.com/2018/03/16/video-blogger-says-lepage-shoved-her-he-says-she-was-chewing-in-his-face/Maine Gov. Paul LePage had an interesting interaction with a blogger outside his office Thursday.
And theres video
A 20-second clip posted on Facebook by WMTW-TV reporter Jim Keithley shows LePage speaking to a group of media members. In the front is Carol McCracken of Portland, who writes a blog called Munjoy Hill News.
McCracken points a small camera at the governor from a few feet away. As she films, she chews with her mouth open, and its full of food.

She was being disgusting. I can't stand people who eat with their mouth open. It's something toddlers do....
And why the hell did she need to be eating while filming him?? C'mon...REALLY??
I realize LePage is a total douchenozzle, but she was being a hillbilly.

Years ago I worked for a multimillionaire.
I never ate with him, but people who did said he chewed with his mouth open
like the woman in this video.

situation like that at all. There really is a way to be diplomatic in these types of situation, or he could of stepped back his own damn self. He is a public servant and he should know how to handle these situations in a professional manor.
