Alex Bruesewitz, a political strategist credited with making Donald Trump 'cool' again with his work on the 2024 campaign, collapsed on stage during a speech in New York Sunday night.
The CEO of X Strategies, the 27-year-old Bruesewitz was hired by the campaign in the summer to help with youth outreach and communications.
On Sunday night, he was speaking to the 112th annual New York Young Republicans gala alongside Trumpworld heavyweights like Steve Bannon and Dan Scavino.
As he carried on with the livestreamed remarks, something was visibly amiss, as he began slurring his speech and at one point, openly stated: 'I'm forgetting my words.'
He tried to continue with his speech, saying: 'But the sham impeachment...'
Those were the last words he was able to speak, as he slowly fell to the ground, toppling over the podium.
The clip continues with people immediately running to Bruesewitz's rescue as the entire crowd gasps.
DailyMail.com has reached out to both the Trump-Vance transition team and X Strategies for comment.
This is a breaking news story.
