Several women were seen rushing to shield Fiorina after the bunting and curtain frame crippled, sending frame piping and cloth falling to the ground.

Fiorina was on stage at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter addressing the National Association of Women Business Owners when the backdrop fell.

The incident – caught on video – drew screams from the San Antonio crowd but no one was hurt, ABC News reported.

Svitek later tweeted that after the curtains fell, someone in the audience shouted, “Trump!”

Fiorina responded to the joke saying, “Trump, Hillary – it could’ve been lots of people“.

Fiorina then continued on, wrapping her remarks and then taking questions from the women in the audience.
