At a Sunday rally in Michigan, President Donald Trump paused during a story about Ohio Senator Jon Husted and turned his attention to rapper Nicki Minaj in the crowd. He called out to her by name and asked her to stand while commenting on her appearance, according to Mediaite.
Trump had appeared to just finished noting that he invited Husted to speak and that the senator did a good job. He then stepped away from the podium for a moment, gestured toward the audience, and returned to continue. He said he had recently learned Husted was a strong athlete who had been a tough tackler in football.
