Trump ‘turned away’ from a man he thought was dying

Donald Trump has done some extremely questionable things in his time but this admission that has come to light may just be the cherry on top all of them.

In a 2008 interview with Howard Stern, Trump admitted to turning away from a man he thought was dying because he can’t stand the sight of blood.

“I’m not good for medical. In other words, if you cut your finger and there’s blood pouring out, I’m gone,” he admitted.

The now President then goes on to share a story with the radio host of how he turned away when a man was injured due to this said affliction with blood at a charity event he was hosting.

The details will probably shock you.

Trump describes the moment an 80-year-old man fell off the stage that “a lot of people didn’t like”.

What does that detail even have to do with the situation?

“So what happens is, this guy falls off right on his face, hits his head, and I thought he died,” the now 71-year-old explained. “And you know what I did? I said, ‘Oh my God, that’s disgusting,’ and I turned away.”

“I didn’t want to touch him… he’s bleeding all over the place,” he said.

Even though he “felt terrible,” Trump then goes onto explain how his “beautiful marble floor” at his club Mar-a-Lago, where the event was held, became stained red.

Because that’s what everyone thinks of when a man is bleeding and you think he’s dying, right?

It was the Marines who saved the day – who were there because that was what the even was in aid of – creating a “human stretcher” to take the injured man to safety and be treated.

Meanwhile Trump was demanding that the blood get cleaned up immediately because it is “disgusting”.

The next day, in the aftermath of events, Trump even admits to forgetting to call the poor 80-year-old bloke to check if he's okay. Hopefully his marble floor was still in tact, though.

Just another thing to add to the list of the many, many questionable things Trump has done throughout the years.
