A CAMPAIGN adviser to President-elect Donald Trump collapsed on stage during a Republican gala, leaving guests horrified.
Alex Bruesewitz, 27, suddenly fainted while giving remarks at the New York Young Republicans event on Sunday.
Addressing the crowd, he admitted he was starting to forget his words.
Bruesewitz then tried to carry on with his speech and uttered the words “sham impeachment” before he fainted.
In the video, guests were heard gasping after the strategist collapsed.
Trump later called into the event and wished Bruesewitz well.
“I know that Alex is going to be fine because he’s a tough son of a gun,” he said.
“There’s no doubt about that. So I want to say hello to Alex, because he’s a very special guy.”
Conservative influencers have said they’ve spoken to Bruesewitz following the incident.
Jack Posobiec said Bruesewitz was checked out by medics and said all levels were normal.
“Only thing he asked me was, “Did it look cool?” Posobiec posted on X.
“He’ll be just fine.”
Bruesewitz, the Chief Executive Officer of the political research organization X Strategies, is frequently recognized for his role in helping Trump connect with a younger audience.
He has been described as a “fierce advocate” for the MAGA movement and the driving force against GOP politicians who tried to defeat Trump.
