Jeffrey Santopietro entered Monteiro’s Restaurant about 10 a.m. Friday to pick up his order and found two patrons already inside, and the 53-year-old Waterbury man told police he thought another man perched on a barstool insulted him, reported WFSB-TV.


Santopietro, the president’s re-election campaign coordinator in Connecticut, told officers he thought the other man had called him “fat or some other insulting term,” and he pushed the other man off the stool and into the wall.

Police interviewed the victim, who complained about back pain but declined medical treatment.

Santiopietro, who apologized for his “immature, stupid” behavior, was issued a misdemeanor summons for second-degree breach of peace.

Big guy with a temper.

[DonaldsRump]

1. I hope the victim sues the hell out of this grinning fool n/t

[Bengus81]

2. He thought....he thought

Hell it's a wonder he didn't think one of them had a gun. This is kind of endless BS that Trump brings.

[Mr.Bill]

3. Is that even a human being?

[SergeStorms]

27. That term....

has been greatly revised since the Trumpeanzoic age started. I know it's only been a little over three years, but it seems like millions of years have passed since actual human beings have been subjected to the harsh realities of Donald Trump. Harsh realities for actual humans, total lack of reality for anyone believing in the Trumpian "philosophy".

[DURHAM D]

4. That can't be a real person. Looks like a cartoon character. nt

[Grokenstein]

6. Oh, hey, I had no idea they were...

...doing a sequel to The Goonies! (Given that his behavior is more like Pesci's in Goodfellas, maybe they should just call it The Goons.)

[SoCalNative]

7. Zippy

I think that's his name

[DENVERPOPS]

8. That's exactly

what I thought............

[Hulk]

5. Put that fat ass behind bars...

...and take away his voting privileges. I'd hate to see him get a pass for his assault. What a dumb ass.

[Botany]

22. Let him play all bad ass w/the boys in the county lock up.

Trump people are assholes and bullies.

[safeinOhio]

9. Looks like the kind of guy

Tramp would pardon give the Medal of Honor to.

[sinkingfeeling]

10. This guy is the stereotypical IQ45 voter.

[robbedvoter]

11. The guy from the Goonies works for 🍊?

[rickford66]

12. Just touching someone could get you arrested for assault.

I know someone who was.

[abqtommy]

13. I know from personal experience that medication could help tRUMP and Jeffrey with many

problems that includes impulse control...

[sop]

14. Only the best people!

[randr]

15. Poster shot of a Trumpet

[Bernardo de La Paz]

16. That's his kind of physical distancing, damn snowflake. . . . nt

[stillcool]

17. 10 a.m.? he must have gotten

out of the wrong side of the bed. Kind of hard to work up a rage that early, isn't it? Maybe he pulled an all-nighter.

[AllaN01Bear]

18. self centered egotistical !#$%&*()

[iluvtennis]

19. Well, if the shoe fits, wear it...from this shoulder shot, you are clearly overweight aka fat. nt

[paleotn]

20. Why am I not surprised?

[dexdah]

21. He's from Waterbury. Looking like that, he's a mobster! NT

[redstatebluegirl]

23. He looks like mafia muscle.

[riversedge]

24. I hope he does not 'snap' again........

............Santopietro, who said he went to the restaurant to get takeout, said he “snapped” when he thought the man called him fat. He was issued a summons to appear in court in July.

The Republican-American reported Santopietro was among eight politically connected Republicans arrested by federal agents on corruption-related charges in 1991. His brother, then-mayor Joseph Santopietro, was among those arrested. Jeffrey Santopietro ultimately pleaded guilty to one count of tax evasion.

31. Heh! His brother was mayor of Waterbury 20 years ago and got busted for

Selling cocaine from his office. There were other felonies as kickbacks. Spent six years in prison.

All republicans, of course.
