I was at Mar-a-Lago and we had this incredible ball, the Red Cross Ball, in Palm Beach, Florida. And we had the Marines. And the Marines were there, and it was terrible because all these rich people, theyre there to support the Marines, but theyre really there to get their picture in the Palm Beach Post so you have all these really rich people, and a man, about 80 years oldvery wealthy man, a lot of people didnt like himhe fell off the stage,
So what happens is, this guy falls off right on his face, hits his head, and I thought he died. And you know what I did? I said, Oh my God, thats disgusting, and I turned away,
I couldnt, you know, he was right in front of me and I turned away. I didnt want to touch him hes bleeding all over the place, I felt terrible. You know, beautiful marble floor, didnt look like it. It changed color. Became very red. And you have this poor guy, 80 years old, laying on the floor unconscious, and all the rich people are turning away. Oh my God! This is terrible! This is disgusting! and you know, theyre turning away. Nobody wants to help the guy. His wife is screamingshes sitting right next to him, and shes screaming.
What happens is, these 10 Marines from the back of the room they come running forward, they grab him, they put the blood all over the placeits all over their uniformstheyre taking it, theyre swiping [it], they ran him out, they created a stretcher. They call it a human stretcher, where they put their arms out with, like, five guys on each side,
I was saying, Get that blood cleaned up! Its disgusting! The next day, I forgot to call [the man] to say hes OK, it's just not my thing."
