This is the President Trump the media will never show you
During a campaign rally in North Carolina on Wednesday, President Trump exited the stage to attend to a supporter who was experiencing a medical emergency, leaving behind the bulletproof glass that had been protecting him.
The 45th president was met with cheers from the crowd as he walked off the stage in what individuals described on social media as a great act of “bravery” and “humility.” This comes after Trump survived an assassination attempt on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania. His campaign event in Asheboro was the GOP nominee’s first outdoor rally since the shooting.

President Trump stops his speech to personally comfort a supporter having a medical emergency in the crowd. This is the kind of genuine leadership the mainstream media refuses to highlight.

On stage, President Trump was surrounded by bulletproof glass barriers, a new protective measure enacted by the United States Secret Service, which also amped up its security detail at Trump campaign events.
Despite the USSS urging the Trump campaign to restrict outdoor rallies for the rest of the election cycle over increased deadly threats against Trump, the 45th president vowed to continue holding outdoor rallies.
Just two weeks after being shot in the ear, Trump posted on Truth Social: “I will continue to do outdoor rallies, and the Secret Service has agreed to substantially step up their operation. They are very capable of doing so. No one can ever be allowed to stop or impede free speech or gathering!!!”
When Trump walked off the stage to attend to the needs of a supporter, Secret Service protection detail followed Trump every step of the way. It’s unclear if agents cleared the president to leave the stage.
Individuals on X, formerly Twitter, described Trump’s gesture as “fearless,” “brave,” and “caring,” referring to him as a “class act.”
Kamala could NEVER muster the ability to compete with Trumps humanity.

As Trump returned to the stage, crowdgoers chanted: “We love Trump!”
Trump pauses his speech because someone in the crowd passed out.
