Trump Gushes Over Dude Who’s a ‘Hell of a Physical Specimen’ in Viral Moment: ‘I Thought I Was Big Until I Met You!’

President Donald Trump gushed about an attendee’s physical specimen-hood during an official event, telling him “I thought I ws big until I met you!”

Trump traveled to Wisconsin for an event that was dubbed a “Roundtable on American Agriculture,” but which featured many of the elements associated with Trump rallies.

In one exchange that was clipped and widely shared, Trump enthused about a former football player’s physique, and his own:

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: I was in Iowa — another place I like a lot — and it was just before we started the excursion to Iran, and we passed gas stations. It was a dollar eighty-five a gallon, and we’re going to get them down to those numbers again very quickly. But as they say in the farming business —

TRUMP: We had to take care of business. Look at this guy over here. I don’t know who the hell he is, but he is one hell of a specimen. This guy, this is one hell of a physical specimen. I thought I was big until I met you, Joe. Fantastic, that’s what I like.

Anyway, I just want to let you all know that I’m thrilled to be here at Custer Farms. Ken and his family, they’re amazing. I took pictures with him backstage and got to know him a little bit. They’re really amazing people. They built this country. You all built this country, not the complainers, not the wise guys. You all built this country.

And I just want to let you know that Wisconsin, for me, has been just a great place. You know, it’s known as difficult. It’s difficult. You got to be good to win, but we won here, as you know. We won a lot. And we’re trying to figure out who the few people that voted against us are. We’re looking, we’re looking for them right now.
