Protester Interrupts Trump’s Weight-Loss Remarks in Iowa

At a final campaign rally in Iowa ahead of the midterm elections, President Donald Trump praised Republican Senate candidate Ashley Hinson’s weight loss, describing her as once “a little bit heavier” and now in “perfect shape,” despite acknowledging she had asked him not to discuss it. Protesters interrupted his remarks, and Trump dismissed them as paid demonstrators, alleging without evidence that they were funded by George Soros. He resumed his comments about Hinson after the interruptions, while also joking about his own weight. The rally was part of Trump’s effort to boost Republicans before voters decide control of Congress.
