During a rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin on Monday night, Donald Trump mistook a female rallygoer in need of medical attention for a protestor and shouted, “get ’em out,” as other audience members were trying to get medical assistance.
According to a tweet by CNN’s Noah Gray, the crowd tried to get Trump’s attention but weren’t successful.

Luckily, as CNN’s Stephen Samaniego noted, the media got her assistance. This is the same media, of course, that Trump and his mobs often spew hatred toward, including at this very campaign event.
Imagine that.
