CHILLICOTHE, Ohio — An activist and content creator was removed from President Donald Trump’s midterm rally at the Shoemaker Center on Wednesday night after a disruption in the crowd during the president’s remarks.
The man removed was Robby Roadsteamer, an activist and content creator known for traveling to political rallies and events across the country. The removal happened shortly after 7:30 p.m., minutes into Trump’s speech.
Broadcast video of the rally shows deputies and security moving into the crowd as people around Roadsteamer grabbed at him while he was led out. His condition could not be confirmed Wednesday night.
Trump paused his remarks and addressed the disruption from the stage, claiming the protester had been paid. “They gave him $250,” the president said, describing him as a paid protester.
