Mickey Horne — the guy who had a great reaction to Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump being asked what he'd do about Muslims — is a Hillary Clinton supporter.
But when "The Donald" comes to your town for a rally, you show up.
"I was like ‘I can’t miss this,’ he told INSIDER. "I knew he would either attack somebody or make some outrageous comment and it’s going to be in the news cycle for a week so why would I miss that circus?"
When Horne, 37, got a ticket and walked into the event, he was surprised to find out he'd be sitting right behind Trump. At first, he plotted what he could say or do with the cameras focused on the man in front of him. But then he had second thoughts.
Mickey Horne, the guy who had a great reaction to outrageous question at a Donald Trump rally in New Hampshire
"I realized was how hardcore the people were around me," he said. "I was almost too afraid to let them know there was a liberal amongst them because they probably would’ve lynched me."
But he couldn't hold back once a man in the audience at Trump's Thursday rally in Rochester, New Hampshire asked, "We have a problem in this country — it's called Muslims. We know our current president is one. We have training camps growing where they want to kill us. That's my question. When can we get rid of them?"
Trump responded by saying, "We're going to be looking at a lot of different things, and a lot of people are saying that and saying that bad things are happening out there." He defended his answer Saturday on Twitter.
Horne wasn't as much surprised by the question as he was that the guy was willing to ask on live
