While on the way from one rally in Arizona to another campaign event, Donald Trump Jr. took an unscheduled stop to help push a stalled motorist’s car out of the street.
"We were on our way from a rally to another event and Donald Trump Jr. hopped out first to help push this lady's car off the road, get some water and call for help," said Maricopa County Republican Party Chairman Tyler Bowyer in a post to his Facebook page. “Needless to say, she was pretty surprised to find out it was Donald Trump Jr. pushing her car.”
The post includes a video of Trump Jr. and two other men helping push the car out of the road and into a parking lot:
In an interview with the Arizona Republic, Bowyer says that Trump Jr. and his group gave the woman every water bottle they had, as temperatures in Arizona that day were reaching 100 degrees. Trump Jr. allegedly got back in his car without mentioning who he was.
Bowyer claims the woman was stunned to hear that the son of a presidential candidate just helped to push her car. “She was just stunned. She was taken aback," Bowyer said. "She was like, 'Man, I have to be able to tell people about this.' So we made him get out and take a picture. And that was it.”
Brian Seitchik, who was also in the car at the time, said that Trump Jr. “was the first to jump out to help push the car.”
The woman who was helped apparently never indicated who she was going to vote for, but Bowyer said the incident helped to confirm his support of Trump. "This was a real act of service that he just naturally did," he said. "Politics was on the back end of it. The front end of this was being a good neighbor, being a good American. I was 101 degrees outside, for crying out loud."
