ABC News Debunks Lie Spread by Harris Campaign that Trump Froze on Stage

PRESHA: “A town hall event in Pennsylvania took an unusual turn after he was interrupted twice by medical emergencies in the room. Trump stopped taking questions and stood on stage for nearly 45 minutes listening to a soundtrack. The crowd slowly dispersed, but many stayed for what became an impromptu indoor concert. ABC News senior national correspondent Terry Moran joins me now for more from Pennsylvania. Hey, Terry.”
MORAN: “Hey, Alex. So, Donald Trump came here to the suburbs of Philadelphia, one of the critical battlegrounds in this battleground state, looking for votes, and it was scheduled to be this town hall event where he would be taking questions and and listening to voters and it turned into something else, as you say, when the candidate turned into a DJ.”

MORAN (voice-over): “Donald Trump in his eleventh trip to must-win Pennsylvania urged his supporters to turn out on Election Day.”

Trump: “We win Pennsylvania, we win the whole thing.”
NOEM: “Yes.”

MORAN (voice-over): “In a town hall-style event in the western suburbs of Philadelphia, the former president stuck to his top issues, attacking Vice President Harris over inflation and immigration. He pledged to shut the southern border, end Russia’s war in Ukraine, lower prices at the grocery store, and bring down interest rates to 2%, while providing few details on how he’d accomplish all that.”

Trump: “People don’t think of grocery. It even sounds like not such an important word when you talk about homes and everything else, right? But more people tell me about grocery bills, with the price of bacon, the price of lettuce, the price of tomatoes, they tell me. And we’re going to do a lot of things.”

MORAN (voice-over): “But then, 30 minutes in, two attendees suffered medical emergencies.”

Trump: “A doctor, please. Doctor.”

MORAN (voice-over): “The incidents shifted the mood, prompting Trump to cut the question short and instead play some of his favorite music.”

Trump: “How about this? We will play YMCA and we go home.”

MORAN (voice-over): “Trump kept DJ-ing and most of his supporters stayed for another 30 minutes of his playing.”

MORAN: “Well, in certain quarters, the social media people had a field day with that, and I guess on the screens it might have looked quite strange. Inside that hall, however, people were having a good time. What can I tell you? It did not seem out of the ordinary. It seemed almost intimate. And at the end, Trump did something he very rarely does. He came down off the stage and mingled with his supporters. He was signing autographs and shaking hands and the like. Today he’s doing an interview with Bloomberg in Chicago...”
