US President Donald Trump mocked a supporter for being overweight at a rally in New Hampshire on Thursday night, after mistaking him for a protester trying to disrupt the event.
"That guy has got a serious weight problem. Go home, start exercising," he said.

A report by a White House doctor in February found the president is clinically obese, though in good health.
