During a rally in Detroit on Friday, Donald Trump experienced a nearly 20-minute silence after his microphone failed just as he was preparing to discuss tariffs. Unable to address the crowd, the former president and Republican nominee wandered around the stage, appearing frustrated as supporters chanted “USA” and “We love Trump.”
This was the second disruption at a Trump event in a week, following a town hall incident where he played music after audience members required medical attention. Despite being known for his attention to detail at rallies, including backup microphones, Trump’s team was slow to provide a replacement.
As the delay stretched, the crowd stayed energized, at one point even doing the wave. When a new microphone was finally delivered, Trump quipped, “I won’t pay the bill for this stupid company.”
Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign used footage of the incident to question Trump’s stamina, posting on X, “An exhausted Trump awkwardly walks in circles on stage after his microphone stops working.”
