Donald Trump once again sparked controversy after acting out a weightlifting scene during a political speech in the United States.
The moment took place at a recent public event and quickly spread across social media, where the clip was widely shared and described by users as “bizarre” and “embarrassing.”
During the speech, Trump pretended to lift a weightlifting barbell, making exaggerated gestures and sounds while describing a situation involving women’s weightlifting competitions.
According to Trump, the demonstration was part of his criticism of policies regarding the participation of transgender athletes in women’s sports, an issue he has addressed on several previous occasions.
The incident is not an isolated one: Trump has repeated this type of imitation in other speeches over the past several years, always in similar contexts while discussing sports regulations and gender identity.
