I like how she asked not to be filmed and they filmed her anyway and then released it.

It really shows how much they care about a woman’s consent.

Could be even more sinister than that. Like if you think about it, why would they want to show that? It doesn't show anything positive about his campaign or engagement, so releasing that footage won't help him directly. But he is aware of how aggressive some of Trump's supporters can be with people they hate. So I wonder if he decided to post that part of the video specifically to trigger the MAGAs that would harass (or worse) the business and/or employees.

We need some kind of group that can protect people like her.

Some kind of brotherhood pledged to enforce the law
