Although it wasn’t exactly clear what caused the fall, master of ceremonies Raheem Kassam assured the audience that Bruesewitz was fine backstage and even asked him if he looked “cool.” “I spoke to our friend Alex Bruesewitz and do you know what he said to me? He asks, ‘Did I at least look cool?'” said former adviser to British Conservative politician Nigel Farage.

“I said, ‘Alex, you’ve used gravity like I’ve never seen anyone use gravity before in their life,'” Kassam continued hilariously, adding, “But he’s recovering back there, So cheer him loudly so he can hear “You.” In the wake of Bruesewitz’s health crisis, the president-elect also checked in with his loyal advisor.

“I know Alex is going to be OK because he’s a tough guy,” Trump said by phone, according to the New York Post. “There is no doubt about that. So I want to say hello to Alex because he is a very special guy,” he added. Bruesewitz is CEO of consulting firm X Strategies LLC, which aims to help select America First candidates.
