Hero Throws Tomato at Donald Trump
Last night’s Donald Trump rally was interrupted by a splattered tomato, a term which is, perhaps for the first time, not being used in reference to Trump’s appearance.
Twenty-eight-year-old Andrew Joseph Alemao was reportedly taken into custody last night after he allegedly threw two tomatoes at Trump.
Alemao’s aim could use some work, but as they say—Trump has to get lucky every time—the tomato only has to get lucky once.
