After EMTs helped the woman, Trump shook her hand, exchanged words with her and gave her a hug.
Former President Donald Trump left the safety of bulletproof glass at a MAGA rally Wednesday to tend to a rally goer who’d fainted, just weeks after narrowly surviving an assassination attempt.
The 45th president made pulses race in Asheboro, North Carolina, at his first outdoor event since the failed attempt on his life, stepping out from behind protective bulletproof glass and walking off the stage to assist a fainting attendee.

After EMTs helped the woman, Trump shook her hand, exchanged words with her and gave her a hug.
The incident comes as the Secret Service implemented the bulletproof glass security measure after multiple security lapses at a July 13 outdoor event in Butler, Pennsylvania, allowed a shooter to successfully fire several shots at Trump, injuring his ear.

After Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle resigned following the rally, the Secret Service also recommended Trump stop holding massive outdoor rallies and instead hold only indoor events.
Less than a week after the recommendation, Trump announced he would soon return to Butler for a massive event honoring victims injured and killed at his previous rally, though the campaign hasn’t established a date or indicated whether it will be an outdoor event.
The latest incident depicts a wholesome kind-hearted side of Trump the mainstream media will never show to American audiences.
