Donald Trump jokes about kicking out crying baby at rally in Ashburn, Virginia

Tuesday, August 2, 2016
ASHBURN, Virginia -- We are used to seeing politicians kiss babies on the campaign trail, but Donald Trump did something a little different at a rally in Virginia on Tuesday.

Apparently, there was a crying baby in the crowd. At first, the Republican presidential nominee said, "Don't worry about that baby. I love babies."

Then he has second thoughts.

"Actually, I was only kidding, you can get the baby out of here ... I think she really believed me that I love having a baby crying while I'm speaking."

Trump then seemed to suggest that he was joking and that the baby could stay. The child soon stopped crying.
