President Donald Trump was in New York this weekend for a rally on behalf of working Americans, an event that was disrupted by a couple of hecklers.
Trump, who’s used to these kinds of disruptions, took it all in stride, however, and he yucked it up with the crowd as he implored his supporters to be gentle with the rude interlopers.
“Don’t hurt him!” Trump said at one point, as the crowd … um… dealt with the interruption:
While delivering remarks at Rockland Community College in Suffern, New York, on Friday, President Trump stopped his speech twice to call out left-wing protesters, one of whom he hit with his classic “Go home to mom!” line.
A second protester arose in the back just minutes later, and Trump encouraged the crowd not to hurt him. “Don’t hurt him, don’t hurt him, don’t hurt him!” Trump shouted, adding, “I do that for legal reasons.”
Throughout the speech, several protesters were thrown out. One held a sign calling Trump a “war criminal,” and another held a sign mentioning Jeffrey Epstein.
While Trump was speaking about men violating women’s sports and stealing trophies from female athletes, the first protester began disrupting.
In response, Trump shouted repeatedly, “Go home to mom,” and the crowd began chanting USA, drowning out the miserable leftist as he was escorted out of the building.
“Take him home to Mommy! He’s going to be in trouble,” Trump continued. “You know what he doesn’t say is his mom’s watching on television right now, and she’s loving it!”
Moments later, another scene unfolded, and Trump paused his speech, noting, “Oh, we have another little disturbance back there.”
“What are you doing back there to these people? Boy, does that get cleared up fast?” Trump said. “The guy raises his hand, starts screaming something, and within about two seconds it’s over. What happened to him?”
“Don’t hurt him, don’t hurt him, don’t hurt him! I do that for legal reasons. This way, I can say. That’s a great thing to say: ‘Do not hurt him under any circumstances!’ And now I can say I’m innocent!” he continued.
And:
Only Trump could pull this off with style, aplomb, and relatable humor.
