“Nothing. Now Hillary Clinton -“, Trump said before Rev. Faith Green Timmons got on the stage to interrupt the Republican presidential candidate and to remind him of his objective at her church.

“Nothing. Now Hillary Clinton -“, Trump told the crowd of about 50 before he was cut off by the church’s pastor, who walked to the podium to address him. He was speaking at Bethel United Methodist Church when the exchange happened.

“Mr. Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we’ve done for Flint, not to give a political speech”, Green-Timmons said.

Trump then added, “The audience was saying let him speak, let him speak”.

When Donald Trump met local girl Amariyanna Copeny in Flint, Michigan, he probably didn’t expect the internet to go insane over the pictures – but the little girl’s reaction to seeing the presidential candidate has caused quite a stir, particularly when compared to meeting President Obama back in May.

We all remember when President Obama visited “Little Miss Flint”, aka Amariyanna Copney and collectively made our hearts crumble into a million little pieces – well, Miss Copney got to meet with “another toxic orange-ish mess” today and.well, you see the picture.

“She was so nervous, she was like a nervous mess”, Trump said.

Trump said “something was up” following the interruption. “And I said, ‘Wow this is sort of odd.’ And then she came up”. “Hillary’s been here, we hear what she had to say” she told the Flint Journal. “He called her ‘a nervous mess'”. I’m going to fix it.

One protestor FOX 2’s Charlie Langton spoke with on Wednesday mentioned that Trump had said that. What do you have to lose? “When it went further than that I did exactly what we agreed I would do”.

In fact, several audience members began to heckle Trump, asking pointed questions about whether he racially discriminated against black tenants as a landlord. “He’s welcome to come and see what we’re doing in Flint”.

He stated that the audience at the church was on his side and chanted “let him speak”.
