Trump calls for medical assistance for supporter

Greg Nash/The Hill

Donald Trump interrupted his criticism of Hillary Clinton at a rally on Monday to call on a doctor for a supporter in the crowd who apparently required medical assistance.

“Could we have a doctor please?,” Trump said at a rally in Asheville, N.C.. “A doctor. A doctor please. It is about 100 degrees in her folks, so. Thank you so much. We love our supporters, right? Let’s give her a hand. Get some water please? Water please.”

{mosads}Trump went down into the crowd and returned to the stage after staff at the rally helped the woman who needed help.

“That’s a great supporter, an unbelievable person, been here for a long time, and I just want to thank you,” Trump said upon returning. “Whether it was a supporter or not we’re going to take care of her. It is pretty hot in her folks, it’s pretty hot.”

The incident comes a day after Clinton appeared to collapse as she was entering her van and leaving a September 11 event in New York City.
 
Clinton’s campaign initially said she had become overheated, but later said the Democratic presidential nominee had been suffering from pneumonia.
