At a campaign rally for Donald Trump in North Augusta, South Carolina, two men helped escort a heckler who was shouting profanities out of the building.
Trump called the men up on stage and gave them a few moments to speak.
After one of them announced they were an Iraq War veteran, the crowd went absolutely insane.

A man received a hero’s welcome from Donald Trump after ripping a sign out of a protester’s hands during a Tuesday rally.
In a raucous scene, Trump paused his remarks as he watched a scuffle break out in the crowd. As a protester was escorted out, Trump invited two men up on stage — one who confronted the protester, another who broke up the ensuing chaos — and then turned the podium over to them.
“Do not let them intimidate you,” the man who took the sign, Jerry Black, from nearby Clearwater, said to his fellow supporters. “You back this man right here to the hilt.”
Next up was the off-duty sheriff’s deputy who broke up the scuffle announcing “I got two tours of Iraq” to a loud ovation.
He added, “If it wasn’t for Mr. Trump right here, I don’t think any of us [veterans] would have the voice that we have.”
