US Presidential candidate Donald Trump pretended to perform a 'sex act' on a microphone during one of his campaign rallies on Friday night (1 October).
The Republican candidate was in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, when the incident occurred, as he was wrapping up his country-wide rallies and closing arguments to become the President for a second term after serving in office from 2017-2021.
Trump was at the stand, attempting to address the crowd, and realised that there was a problem with the microphone stand before starting to complain about it.

While going through the technical difficulties, the 78-year-old started to say: “I came in today, I said, and, you know, this is after four of these things I’ve been in all fairness. I mean, I’m a human being, right? I come in, and here’s the problem…”
He then went on to say that the microphone stand wasn't tall enough for him, exclaiming that it was 'way too low'.
But in the midst of complaining, a viral moment of his frustration did the rounds on X, when the American did something X-rated with the microphone.
Ana Navarro, known on her work on CNN, pointed out in a post on X: “Yes. You saw right. This is Trump on stage at a rally, pretending to perform a sex-act on a microphone.
“This is not normal. Trump is disgusting, unhinged and unfit to represent the United States. Vote him out.”
He could be seen holding the mic in one hand while stroking the stand with the other hand and pretending to put his mouth on it.
Previously in the rally, Trump had ripped the microphone from the podium to hold it nearer to his mouth, and said: “I think this mic stinks.
“And then we don’t pay the contractor. I say don’t pay the contractor then they write a story, Trump doesn’t pay his bills, he’s a bad guy.”

But it didn't stop there, as the 45th President of the United States said in annoyance: “You’ve gotta be kidding. Do you want to see me knock the hell out of people backstage?”
“I don’t mind if they want to come up a little forward or something but it’s a pretty stupid situation, but that’s okay,” he said about the technical issues, as the crowd cheered.
Trump kept going: “I get so angry, I’m up here seething. I’m seething, I’m working my ass off with this stupid mic.
“I’m blowing out my left arm. Now I’m going to blow out my right arm, and I’m blowing out my damn throat too, because of these stupid people.”
Who knew a microphone could cause so much grief?
