In an eye-catching bright-orange safety vest Donald Trump showed up at mid-week Wisconsin meet-up‚ giving folks a rare look at campaign inner-workings
My people told me about four weeks ago — I was saying‚ ʼNo‚ I want to protect the people. I want to protect the women of our country. I want to protect the womenʼ [...] ʼSir‚ please donʼt say that.ʼ Why? They said‚ ʼWe think itʼs very inappropriate for you to say.ʼ I said‚ ʼWhy? Iʼm president. I want to protect the women of our countryʼ
The ex-presidents choice of work-wear (which grabbed lots of attention) wasnt the only surprising element of his appearance. He went off-script to share how his campaign team tries to manage his public statements; specifically about womens protection issues
