The president may have drawn the crowd, but he made Jordan part of the show as he seeks to bolster troubled Republicans.

LEWIS CENTER, Ohio—There were a number of moments in President Donald Trump’s freewheeling speech, in a suffocatingly hot high school gymnasium on Saturday night, that broke the humid haze over the crowd, sending them into uproarious cheers.

There was the stretch where he mentioned the high ratings of his favorite Fox News hosts: Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Tucker Carlson (and lest the president forget Lou Dobbs). There was the hallmark bashing of the other boogeyman networks. There was a riff on former Rep. Mark Sanford (R-SC) and his time on the “Tallahassee Trail,” which was likely a reference to the notorious “Appalachian Trail,” a two-word euphemism for the Republican’s extramarital affair.

But the one that seemed to send the crowd into a euphoric tailspin was Trump inviting Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) onstage.

"Jim Jordan, how great is he?" Trump said. "What a great defender he's been, what courage. He's a brave, tough cookie."

Chants of “Speaker of the House,” erupted from the bleachers as the conservative lawmaker came to the podium.

The president added “I don’t want to wrestle him, he’s tough.”
