Trump traveled to Youngstown, Ohio, on October 12th to rally support for Republican candidates ahead of the November midterm elections, including Jon Husted, who is facing a reelection challenge from former Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown.

Trump then went into an unexpected description of how he examined Husted's body after learning about his football career, getting laughter from the crowd as he discussed the senator's backside, hands, and jawline.
"I don't do this with men very often," he stated. "I started examining his body because I didn't know he was a great athlete. And I looked, and I watched up and down. And I looked at his [behind]."
