The president waved and pointed into the crowd, appearing to mouth “thank you” as people came to the woman’s aid.

“That was really something,” Trump said.

“I want to just thank everybody for the way you behaved, and at the end was beautiful, ‘Amazing Grace,’ that was beautiful.”

The moment came during a rally where he was joined by Fox News host Sean Hannity, radio host Rush Limbaugh and TV personality Jeanine Pirro.

At the rally, he stumped for Missouri Senate Republican candidate Josh Hawley, who is running to unseat Democrat Claire McCaskill in Tuesday’s midterm elections.
