Disgraced Gay Congressman Mark Foley Spotted in Crowd at Trump Rally: WATCH
Mark Foley, who resigned from Congress in 2006 after it was revealed he had sent inappropriate, sexually-explicit emails and instant messages to underage teens who were serving as Congressional pages, was spotted at a Donald Trump rally earlier this week.
Trump, who was commenting on the attendance of the Orlando shooter’s father at a Hillary Clinton rally, turned around to those behind him in his audience, including Foley, and noted that those seats are given to people who “sort of know” the campaign.
“How many of you people know me?”, Trump asked. Foley was among those who raised his hand.
Foley told NBC News’ Thomas Roberts immediately after the rally via text message that “yes” he is a Trump supporter. “He’s been a friend of mine for 30 years and one of my biggest contributors,” Foley wrote.
Clinton disavowed Seddique Mateen’s support in the aftermath of her rally. Campaign spokesman Nick Merrill told NBC News that Clinton “disagrees with his views and disavows his support.”
Trump’s campaign, when asked if they or the candidate knew Foley was there and seated behind Trump, did not immediately respond.
