With just days to go until the election, Donald Trump told supporters he doesn’t “mind” if someone shoots the “fake news,” said he never should have left the White House in 2020, and pantomimed a sex act on a broken microphone.
Speaking at a rally in Pennsylvania on Sunday, the ex-president—who sent a mob to attack the Capitol on January 6, 2021, and has appeared to lay the groundwork to contest the results of the 2024 election—lamented having vacated the White House four years ago. “I shouldn’t have left, I mean, honestly,” Trump said, adding, “We did so well.” (After his 2020 loss to Joe Biden, he reportedly told aides, “I’m just not going to leave” and “We’re never leaving.”)

Later, noting the protective glass in front of him, which has been a feature of his outdoor rallies since a July assassination attempt, Trump said, “To get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news, and I don’t mind that so much. ’Cause I don’t mind, I don’t mind.” A short time after, pointing out a gap in the glass, he gestured to the area housing the press and told the crowd, “They’re my glass. See? Those people are my glass.”
