Trump walks across Detroit rally stage for 20 minutes in silence after ‘technical difficulties’

Trump walks across Detroit rally stage for 20 minutes in silence after ‘technical difficulties’

A second microphone was handed to Trump. It didn’t work.

He then tried the microphone on the pulpit once again, throwing his hands in the air without making a sound.

And then Eye of the Tiger started playing, and Trump walked up to his microphone, leaned over and said, “Hello.”

“I’m not going to pay the bill for this stupid company that rented this crap to us,” Trump said.

“I’m not going to pay the bill. And then we’ll get the story that Trump didn’t pay a contractor his bill. No. When they do this kind of work, don’t pay the bill.”

He continued for another hour, sometimes complaining that he had to “scream” to be heard even though the audio system was at full volume.

Trump said U.S. Senate candidate Mike Rogers didn’t want to join him on stage because of the “poor quality microphone.”

“I want to keep him well and healthy,” the former president added.

“I want him to have his voice tomorrow. When I wake up tomorrow and can’t speak, I’ll say, ‘Detroit did this to me.'”
