Trump on remarks about GOP senator’s ‘a‑‑’: ‘This guy’s a monster!’

President Trump on Tuesday again complimented the backside of Sen. Jon Husted (R-Ohio), something he has done multiple times on the campaign trail as the midterms near.

“I looked at his a‑‑, and then I looked at his legs, and my — I said, ‘His a‑‑ is like, it’s like a pile of muscle.’ Then I looked at his legs, and I said, ‘Man, his feet are big,’” Trump said during a rally in North Carolina, talking about Husted, who is locked in a tight race with former Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio).

“Then I looked at his shoulders, and I tapped him on the shoulder, and it actually hurt my hand. It was like a piece of steel. I said, ‘This guy’s a monster,’” the president added.

Trump made similar remarks about Husted’s build at a rally in Ohio a little more than a week ago .

Trump regularly remarks on the appearances of women at rallies and elsewhere, joking he could be “canceled” for the compliments. His comments about men’s physiques have raised the eyebrows of commentators on both sides of the political spectrum.

Comedy Central “Daily Show” host Michael Kosta poked fun at Trump over his Husted comments, saying on Tuesday’s show the president should “find a man” and “take him dancing in your big gay ballroom.”

Fox News host Jesse Watters remarked on similar comments from Trump last week about Husted.

“Trump says a lot of stuff we all think and we don’t say,” Watters said on “The Five.” “Sometimes it sounds a little gay. He can get away with it because he’s straight.”

The president’s comments on Tuesday came two weeks out from Election Day. The Ohio Senate battle is among a handful of Democratic pickup opportunities with headwinds blowing hard against Republicans.

Trump’s approval numbers are at record lows as voters are angry about the war in Iran and the resulting rise in gas prices and overall inflation. Corruption in government is also a top concern down the midterm homestretch.

The nonpartisan political handicapper Cook Political Report rates the Husted-Brown match-up as a “toss-up,” and Decision Desk HQ says Brown has a 53 percent chance of locking down the Senate seat .
