No longer content to verbally attack those he claims are the “enemy within,” failed former president Donald Trump turned on his own supporters Friday in Detroit when he tried to encourage women who are voting for him to “slap around” their “fat pig” husbands and make sure they cast a ballot for him.
Newsweek reports that early voting has just begun in Detroit and will expand to the rest of Michigan on October 26.
“Early voting is underway, so get everyone you know and go out and vote, go tomorrow it’s just starting,” Trump told the Detroit crowd towards the end of the rally.
“Go and vote. Make sure you vote and bring all our friends that want to vote for us. Tell them, ‘Jill. Get your fat husband off the couch. Get that—get that fat pig off the couch. Tell him to go and vote for Trump. He’s going to save our country.’
“Get him up, Jill. Slap him around. Get him up! Get him up, Jill. We want him off the couch to get out and vote,” Trump added.
Trump’s demeaning comments drew plenty of reaction on social media.
