The New Mexico governor who was accused of grabbing her male ex-staffer's crotch has defended her decision to settle the case for $62,500 by saying that the pandemic had demanded her attention. In her first in-person comments concerning the settlement on Friday, Michelle Lujan Grisham said: 'I was focused on the pandemic, and I'll stand by that decision every minute of every day.'(Snip) Hallinan first accused the Democratic governor in late 2019 of pouring a bottle of water on his crotch while laughing and then grabbing his crotch through his clothes in front of other campaign staffers. The alleged incident took place

What decision? To grab his wet junk or to pay the hush money?

Sounds to me like she was “focused” on something else.

Once upon a time New Mexico elected qualified public officials then they elected Richardson and now Grisham.

So you can only handle one crisis at a time, and just choose to pay off any others to make them go away?
Great leadership qualities there, Gov. You are definitely Bidet cabinet-worthy.

The only thing that surprises me about her behavior is that she groped a man and not a woman.

NM Gov. says she was focused on the "pandemic" as she grabbed staffer's "crotch"...Is that what we're calling it now? I always thought it was called "sausage"

Looks like she was more focused on the victim. Didn't know that was the place on the anatomy one looked for Covid-19.

Lots, #16. They are called deplorables. Very few have the time or ambition to enter the swamp. We are too busy supporting the 1/2 that are members of the parasite class.

Amazing! A Republican would long ago have been forced to resign. This is, well, just a resume builder for a disgusting dem dame! The victim should repeat the act on her, bring a few friends, laugh your heads off!

What does the "pandemic" have to do with grabbing someone's crotch? This may be the stupidest defense of doing something stupid I have ever heard (but good enough for the MSM and dims).

If Grisham was employed by a private company, her employment would have been immediately suspended after the Hallinan's complaint was filed pending an investigation of the incident. Then Grisham would have been terminated for cause.

I think she’s suggesting she’s too busy focusing on the pandemic to fight this case, so she’ll just take the hit and pay the dude the $62,500. Another low class bottom feeder courtesy of the democrats.

Halinan is a wuss, and Grisham grabbed an empty trousers when she grabbed his crotch.
The girlie-man should have clocked her.
It would be justifiable defense.

Trump only joked about it. She did it. Where is the media outrage?
