Protesters removed from Trump rally in Ohio
Several protesters were removed from Donald Trump’s rally in Ohio on Monday night.
The event was held as Republicans campaign to defend their majorities in Congress ahead of the midterm elections.
One protester wore a shirt calling for the release of the Epstein files, and Trump’s speech was briefly halted.
Earlier, two people were dragged away while Ohio Senator Jon Husted was speaking; a punch appeared to be thrown.
Trump urged the crowd to vote for Husted, who faces a challenge from former Senator Sherrod Brown.
Husted was appointed to the Senate in 2024 after JD Vance left to run for vice president.
The rally also took place as Republican Vivek Ramaswamy campaigns for governor against Democrat Amy Acton, in what the article describes as a close race.
