Donald Trump once again exposed his supporters to extreme weathers at one of his rallies. On Thursday, medical personnel had to provide assistance to multiple Trump supporters after the heat at a Tampa, Florida, rally took a toll on them.
Reporters at the scene say that several people suffered heat related ailments.
“It’s hot hot hot at Trump’s large rally. 87 [degrees] and 71% humidity. Have noticed EMTs provide assistance for at least two people in the crowd, one carried out on a stretcher. Staffers trying get water bottles to people but quickly running out and having to restock,” said Emily Larsen of Washington Examiner.
Firefighters were spotted at the rally shooting their hose into the air in an attempt to cool off the crowd.
