What Donald Trump told the woman who fainted at his North Carolina rally – and what she said back to him
Donald Trump comforted an elderly supporter and told her to ‘drink plenty of water’ after she fainted at his North Carolina rally.
The former president, 78, stopped his speech on Wednesday and left his bulletproof glass protection to approach the woman after she collapsed.
As a medic helped her and handed her a bottle of water, Trump said: ‘Hi darling, are you okay? Drink plenty of water.’
She appeared stunned that she came face-to-face with Trump, as she could be heard responding: ‘Oh my gosh, I’m fine.
‘I’m just an old woman and I had to come see you,’ she added.
The moment spread rapidly across social media as viewers noted that Trump abandoned his bulletproof glass protection – a new precaution as it was his first outside rally since the attempt on his life in Butler, Pennsylvania last month.
When his supporter collapsed, Trump was speaking about how he sponsored athletes during his business days, but stopped as people in the crowd could be heard shouting ‘medic!’
Trump added from the podium: ‘A doctor, please…’
It is not clear what medical emergency the supporter was suffering, however she appeared to be okay and told Trump she was ‘fine.’
The former president speculated that high temperatures were the cause, as he said before wading into the crowd that ‘it is very hot here, I notice.’
‘It is very hot. A lot of the people waited for days to get here. I understand it. Take your time, doctor, take your time, thank you,’ he continued.
Trump watched the unfolding drama for a few more moments and then left the lectern, walked to the side of the stage, descended the stairs, and headed over to the crowd, accompanied by Secret Service agents.
After embracing the struggling supporter, Trump returned to the stage and praised his fans for camping out for a long time to catch a glimpse of him at his events.
You know, they come two, three days early and it’s a lot of stress, we lose them,’ he said.
‘The only ones we don’t lose are the front row Joes, I don’t know what they have going, they have something going here.’
He added: ‘Thank you very much. thanks doctor.’
The decision to speak behind bulletproof glass came after the assassination attempt last month, where Trump was shot in the ear as he narrowly avoided death.
For his first outside speech since the July 13 shooting, at the North Carolina Aviation Museum & Hall of Fame, storage containers were also stacked around the perimeter to create additional walls and block sight lines.
Snipers were positioned on roofs at the venue, where old aircraft were sitting behind the podium and a large American flag was suspended from cranes.
The event, billed as being focused on national security issues, is part of Trump’s weeklong series of counterprogramming to the Democratic National Convention, which is underway in Chicago.
Allies have been urging Trump to focus on policy instead of personal attacks as he struggles to adjust to running against Harris after President Joe Biden dropped out of the race.
During his speech Trump railed against Vice President Kamala Harris’ approach to national security.
He told a raucous crowd: ‘The world is on fire, and Kamala and Biden have marched us to the brink of World War III.
Trump blamed the current White House for the deadly Afghanistan withdrawal, and wars between Russia and Ukraine, and Israel and Hamas.

Angry Patrick Mahomes says he will LEAVE the NFL and accuses the NFL of risking player safety before huge run of Chiefs games “If there’s no changes, I will leave” – Full Story Inside
Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs have an extremely congested schedule coming up – and the passer is far from thrilled with the NFL.
The two-time defending champions will embark on a stretch of three games in 11 days beginning this weekend when they face the Browns on Sunday, before hosting the Texans on December 21 and then traveling to the Steelers on Christmas.
And while the Chiefs are sitting pretty atop the AFC with a 12-1 record, Mahomes seems to be dreading his team’s next couple of weeks.
‘It is not a good feeling,’ he told reporters on Wednesday, per ESPN. ‘I’m excited to play on Christmas to hopefully get back from what we did last year [when the Chiefs lost to the Raiders], but you never want to play this many games in this short of time.
‘It’s just not great for your body. But at the end of the day, it’s your job, your profession. You have to come to work and do it.’
Mahomes added, ‘All you can do is focus on the game and the practice that you had that day. I try to prepare my body all year long for this stretch by tailoring my workouts, tailoring how you practice and you prepare. The coaches do a great job of taking care of us on the practice field. We practice hard as anybody, but they know how to kind of dial it back when we need it.’
In addition to the Chiefs, the Texans, Steelers and Ravens will also be playing three games in the next 11 days.
Crucially, though, the Ravens and Texans are coming right off of a bye in Week 14, while the Steelers had their break in Week 9.
The Chiefs haven’t had a rest since they returned from their Week 6 bye – a fact that defensive star Chris Jones was eager to point out.
‘This is one thing I’m doing this offseason is I’m going to the NFLPA, especially with us having three games in [an 11-day] span, that we’re mandatory to have a late bye week,’ he said.
‘With our schedule, it’s kind of awkward, to say the least. … That’s a conversation to have this offseason. If a team has somewhat of a schedule like that, they should get a late-season bye. We don’t need a Week [6] bye … Give it to us in Week 8, Week 10, something like that.’
Mahomes and Co. will have a week-and-a-half to recover after their Christmas Day game before facing the Broncos in Week 18 on January 5.
And if Kansas City manages to wrap up a first-round playoff bye before Week 18 – as they currently have a two-game AFC lead over the Bills – Mahomes and the team’s other starters could be held out of the final regular season game.
The quarterback then wouldn’t play until January 18 or 19 in the divisional round.

Selena Gomez, 32, Is Engaged to Benny Blanco, 36! Star Flaunts Massive Diamond Ring, Shares Sweet Photos, Hilarious Proposal Clips – and Reveals the Wedding Date Along With Another Shocking Surprise: “Our Prayers Have Been Answered, We’re Expecting…”
Selena Gomez shocked fans on Wednesday night by revealing she is now engaged to her boyfriend Benny Blanco after a year and a half of dating.
The singer, 32, revealed the news on Instagram, sharing the first photos of her massive diamond engagement ring with her 422million followers.
‘forever begins now..’ captioned the Who Said singer. She also included a photo of herself showing off her ring for the camera as Blanco, 36, wrapped his arm around her and kissed her head.
Blanco — a famed music producer — seemingly popped the question during a romantic nighttime picnic featuring Taco Bell.
The couple received an outpouring of love from theor A-list celebrity friends, including Cardi B, Jennifer Aniston, Gwyneth Paltrow and Gomez’s BFF Taylor Swift.
Swift — who has been friends with Gomez since 2008 — offered to be the couple’s ‘flower girl.’
Blanco himself also left a cheeky comment in which he referred to Gomez as his ‘wife.’
‘hey wait… that’s my wife,’ wrote the musician, who earned nearly 150,000 ‘likes.’
Gomez has been dating Blanco since June 2023, though she did not confirm the relationship until that December. At the time, she used Instagram to confirm to fans that she’d been secretly dating the hitmaker for six months and that he was her ‘absolute everything.’
Previously, the Wolves songstress dated The Weeknd, Zedd, Nick Jonas, Taylor Lautner and was linked to a number of other stars, including Zayn Malik and The Chainsmokers’ Andrew Taggart. She also famously had an on-and-off relationship with Justin Bieber, 30, that spanned eight years, before they called it quits in 2018. He is now married to model Hailey Bieber, 28, and they welcomed a baby son in August.
Before getting romantic, Gomez and Blanco were friends for over a decade and even worked on music together.
He has produced three of the singer’s biggest hits, including the 2021 tune I Can’t Get Enough and 2015’s Same Old Love.
Selena Gomez shows off engagement ring from fiance Benny Blanco. Last month, Blanco revealed that it was Gomez who made the first move.
‘She asked me out. It was crazy, it was crazy. She literally asked me… like we were just talking, and then she said, “You wanna get dinner?” And I went to the dinner, and I had no idea,’ he explained on Kai Cenat’s Twitch stream.
