Donald Trump's town hall in suburban Philadelphia turned into a spontaneous concert last night after the former president was interrupted twice by medical emergencies in the room.

As the Associated Press reports, the Republican presidential candidate paused during a question-and-answer session while a doctor attended to the first person who had a medical problem. After a second emergency, the moderated discussion broke off Kristi Noem, Governor of South DakotaTrump stopped answering questions. He and Noem mentioned that it was hot in the venue, and Trump asked about the air conditioning.

“You probably can’t afford it in this economy, sir,” Noem quipped.

After Noem announced that the second person had stood up and moved, Trump spoke for a few more minutes before suggesting the audience enjoy some music rather than hear him answer more questions.

He called for it “YMCA” of the villagers and it blared through the speakers, the usual signal that Trump had finished his speech and was ready to leave. But he stayed on stage. “Nobody’s leaving,” Trump said. “What's up?”

More music played – and it didn't stop for about 40 minutes.

Trump jumped and shimmied around the stage to an eclectic playlist of songs including: Sinead O'Connor's “Nothing Compares 2 U”, Rufus Wainwright's cover of “Hallelujah” and Guns N' Roses' “November Rain”.

Finally, Trump left the stage as “Memory” from the musical “Cats” played.

Karoline Leavitt, Trump's national press secretary, posted a photo of Trump from the side of the stage on the social media site X. “DJ TRUMP!” she wrote.

Vice President Kamala Harris criticized Donald Trump's comments that the US military could be used to cope “The enemy from within” as the two presidential candidates fought the battle for battleground Pennsylvania on opposite ends of the state last night.

Harris called Trump a serious threat to American democracy at her rally in northwestern Pennsylvania “In Search of Uncontrolled Power”.

“He considers anyone who doesn’t support him or bend to his will to be an enemy of our country,” Harris said after playing a clip of the commentary on the jumbo screen at her rally at an arena in Erie.

Harris argued that Trump's comments in a Fox News “Sunday Morning Futures” interview were the latest example of the former president's threatening rhetoric designed to worry Americans about what a potential Trump second term might look like.

Trump made the comment in response to a question “Outside agitators” could disrupt election day.

“I think the bigger problem is the enemy within,” Trump said. He added: “We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left-wing crazy people. And I think they're the big ones – and the National Guard, if necessary, the military should be able to handle it quite easily, or if it's really necessary, the military, because they can't let that happen.”
