U.S. President Donald Trump was interrupted 12 times over 45 minutes during a speech in Texas, a state with strong Republican support, according to a report by TASS.
Police escorted one of the protesters out of the venue in handcuffs, the report said, though further details about the other interruptions, the protesters involved, or their reasons for disrupting the speech were not included in available reporting.
The report did not specify the exact location of the event in Texas, the size of the audience, or how Trump responded to each individual interruption during his remarks. It also did not indicate whether additional protesters were removed or detained beyond the one person taken out in handcuffs.
Texas has traditionally been considered a reliably Republican state in U.S. politics, making repeated disruptions during a presidential speech there notable, though the report did not provide context on the protesters' affiliations or motivations. Disruptions at political events by demonstrators have occurred periodically in recent years across the U.S. political spectrum.
No additional comment from event organizers, local law enforcement beyond the handcuffing detail, or the protesters themselves was included in the available report.
