Donald Trump appeared to mime performing a “sex act” on a microphone stand at a campaign rally after experiencing technical difficulties.
Viewers were stunned by the former president's apparent gesture during his Milwaukee rally Friday night in Wisconsin.
Trump complained about the microphone and told the crowd that the stands were too low. “I came in today, I said, and you know, this is honestly after four of these things. I mean, I'm human, right? I come in and here's the problem…'
He grabbed the microphone stand and appeared to simulate lowering the microphone stand. “Far too low,” he said between gestures.
A short clip of the bizarre moment began circulating on social media.
The view's Anna Navarro was among the shocked viewers. “Ask yourself: What would happen if Kamala Harris did this?” she said in a message on X. “Yes. You saw it well. This is Trump on stage at a rally, pretending to perform a sex act through a microphone.
“This is not normal. Trump is disgusting, unhinged and unfit to represent the United States. Vote him out.”
Someone else said: “What would happen if Kamala did this? Trump on stage at a rally, pretending to perform a sex act through a microphone. He is disgusting, unhinged and unfit to represent the United States.”
Earlier in the rally, Trump yanked the microphone off the stage in frustration to hold it closer to his mouth.
“I think this microphone stinks,” Trump said. “And then we don't pay the contractor. I say don't pay the contractor, they'll write a story, Trump doesn't pay his bills, he's a bad guy.
At one point, when the trouble seemed to continue, the former president said, “You've got to be kidding me. Do you want to see me beat the shit out of people backstage?'
The crowd cheered and Trump continued: “I don't mind if they want to come forward a little bit or something, but it's a pretty stupid situation, but that's OK.”
'I'm getting so angry, I'm standing here cooking. I'm furious, I'm working my ass off with this stupid microphone,” he continued.
'I blow out my left arm. Now I'm going to blow out my right arm, and I'm going to blow out my damn throat too, because of these stupid people.
