During a rally for Montana Republicans ahead of the midterms, Trump praised Rep. Greg Gianforte, who allegedly body slammed a reporter back when he was initially running for his congressional seat in 2017.
"Any guy that can do a body slam, he is my type!" Trump said on Thursday to cheers.
The referenced body-slam happened in May 2017 when then-candidate Gianforte attacked reporter Ben Jacobs.
