Donald Trump says at rally Sen. Jon Husted's rear is "like a pile of muscle"
“I’ve never studied the body of a man before. It’s not my thing. Nothing wrong with it of course… But I looked at his a--, and then I looked at his legs, and I said, ‘His a-- is, it’s like a pile of muscle,’”

President Donald Trump has repeatedly commented at rallies on the body of Sen. Jon Husted, and a Zeteo “First Draft” newsletter account citing three Republicans close to the president says he has told allies that audiences like it and has monitored the laughter. The routine started in Ohio, where Husted is in a close contest with Democrat Sherrod Brown, and Trump used versions in Kentucky and North Carolina; the quoted remark came at Tuesday’s North Carolina rally. At a South Carolina event the following day, he also praised the husband of Sen. Darline Graham and made a remark about love for a man involving Sen. Tim Scott. The newsletter reports that some Republican strategists expect midterm losses, with one adviser saying such remarks will not make voters forget fuel costs.
