A person has collapsed at Donald Trump's White House press conference, bringing the event to a halt. Members of the press were hastily shepherded out of the room after officials realised what was happening. In footage, an official can be heard telling journalists, "Out, out, press out", with the US President looking on from a podium.
Video was posted on social media by Aaron Rupar, who describes himself as a journalist in his X bio. His clip was accompanied by the comment: "Trump tells reporters their lives will be in great danger if Iran gets a nuke and then someone has a medical event and collapses, bringing the event to an abrupt close".
The clip shows a concerned looking Mr Trump wander over to the scene of the collapse as guests and staff rush to the person's aid. The press conference was being held on the day Mr Trump was swearing in US television personality Dr Mehmet Oz. He is to serve as administrator at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
