“The town hall, moderated by South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R), began with questions from preselected attendees for the former president. Donald Trump offered meandering answers for how he would address housing affordability and help small businesses. But it took a sudden turn after two attendees required medical attention.
Cut through the 2024 election noise,” the Washington Post reports.
“And so Trump, after jokingly asking the crowd whether ‘anybody else would like to faint,’ took a different approach.”
Said Trump: “Let’s not do any more questions. Let’s just listen to music. Let’s make it into a music. Who the hell wants to hear questions, right?”
“For 39 minutes, Trump swayed, bopped — sometimes stopping to speak — as he turned the event into almost a living-room listening session of his favorite songs from his self-curated rally playlist.”
“He played nine tracks. He danced. He shook hands with people onstage. He pointed to the crowd. Noem stood beside him, nodding with her hands clasped. Trump stayed in place onstage, slowly moving back and forth. He was done answering questions for the night.”
CNN: Trump stays on stage and sways to music long after wrapping town hall in Pennsylvania.
