Failed Trump nominee Ed Martin spit on by enraged passerby during live interview, shocking video shows

Wild video captured the disgusting moment an enraged woman spat on failed Trump nominee lawyer Ed Martin in the middle of a TV interview.

The sick ordeal unfolded as Martin was speaking to Newsmax on Thursday about President Trump’s decision to withdraw his nomination to serve as the top federal prosecutor for Washington, DC, instead picking Fox News’ Jeanine Pirro.

Martin was mid-sentence when the unidentified woman suddenly appeared while walking a dog and started waving her finger in his face.

“You are Ed Martin,” she could be heard saying aggressively.

She then hurled abuse at him before launching a huge spit ball at close-range, before stomping off as a speechless Martin watched on in horror.

“You are a disgusting man,” the spitter shouted at one point.

The footage has already been viewed millions of times on social media, with many ripping the woman as a “crazed leftist” and “psychotic lib.”

The disgusting interaction came just hours after Trump revealed he was pulling Martin’s nomination amid bipartisan concerns about the conservative activist’s modest legal experience, divisive politics and support for Jan. 6 rioters.

“He’s a terrific person, and he wasn’t getting the support from people that I thought,” Trump said of Martin, whose period as acting DC US attorney will expire May 20.

Instead, the president said Martin will be tapped as an associate deputy attorney general and pardon attorney.
