Flaunt Weeekly Last night, former president and current watch, sneaker, and bible salesperson Donald Trump appeared at a town hall event in Oaks, Pennsylvania, that somehow turned out even weirder than usual.
Flaunt Weeekly During the event, Trump began by answering a few questions from voters. He managed to squeeze in a reference to Hannibal Lector (who is, for the record, not a real guy), and he also erroneously encouraged his supporters to vote on January 5. Pretty normal stuff for Trump, unfortunately.
Flaunt Weeekly However, two medical events in the crowd reportedly interrupted the event, and instead of getting back on track, Trump said, “Let’s not do any more questions. Let’s just listen to music. Let’s make it into our music. Who the hell wants to hear questions? Right?” Gentle reminder that the whole point of a town hall is to answer questions from voters, but go off, I guess???
CNN reporter:
“Trump decided the thing he would do instead of taking questions would be to start calling out songs he wanted played and dance. It went on for 39 minutes. People in the crowd seemed somewhat confused. One of the people on stage was checking things on his phone.” pic.twitter.com/HZg8k43gXx

Flaunt Weeekly Trump proceeded to spend the next 39 minutes swaying awkwardly on stage to the following playlist, which includes several artists who have explicitly asked him not to play their music at his events:

Flaunt Weeekly In a post on Truth Social, Trump described the event as “a GREAT EVENING!”
Flaunt Weeekly Meanwhile, Vice President Kamala Harris and her campaign quickly latched on to the townhall gone wrong with Harris tweeting, “Hope he’s okay.”
Flaunt Weeekly The event was bizarre, even by Trump standards, and people online are calling for more information about Trump’s health and mental fitness.
Our potential next president just stood for 30 minutes like an NPC, listening to Time To Say Goodbye and Hallelujah not saying a word at his own rally. Not fucking normal. The media grilled Biden for years on his mental fitness- when will they hold Trump to the same standard???

Flaunt Weeekly And we must acknowledge that if his opponent did anything remotely similar, she would likely be held to a much higher standard.
Try to imagine Kamala Harris telling people to vote on January 5th and then standing on stage swaying to music for the next 20 minutes.
