President Donald Trump went on a bizarre rant about Sen. Jon Husted’s (R-Ohio) physique during a midterm rally in North Carolina on Tuesday.

Trump claimed Husted had been “losing by a lot” before the president’s rally in Ohio last week.

“By the time I finished, they did a poll,” Trump said. “He’s leading by two.”

Trump then discussed Husted’s body, which the president said he admired at great length at the Ohio rally.

“So, he’s over here. I’m over here, and I’m studying his body. I’ve never studied the body of a man before. It’s not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. I always precede it by saying, ‘Nothing wrong,’ but it’s never been my thing, to be honest with you,” Trump said.

Trump then claimed he looked at Husted’s ass and his legs.

“His ass, shit, it’s like, it’s like a pile of muscle,” Trump said. “Then I looked at his legs, and I said, ‘Man, his feet are big.’ Then I looked at his shoulders, and I tapped him on the shoulder, and it actually hurt my hand. He’s like a piece of steel. I said, ‘This guy’s a monster.’”

Despite Trump claiming he’s never “studied the body of a man before,” he made similar comments about Husted during that event in Ohio last week.

“I looked, and I watched up and down. I looked at his ass, and I looked at the whole, and then I looked at his hands. Look at his hands. He’s got these, like, claws,” Trump said.

But not all of Trump’s observations about male candidates are so complimentary.

While stumping for Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) in September, Trump said, “I’m not sure if I like your look. I’m not sure if I like the way you dress. I don’t like the way you talk.’”
