Former President Trump introduced Michaelah Montgomery at a rally in Atlanta


A Georgia activist stole the show after being introduced by former President Trump at his rally in Atlanta on Saturday.

Trump invited Michaelah Montgomery to come on stage toward the end of his speech at Georgia State University's Convocation Center. He introduced Montgomery by explaining that he met her at a restaurant earlier this year.

Trump said Montgomery, who attended Clark Atlanta University, had publicly acknowledged him and praised him for funding historically black colleges and universities.

“She looked at me and said, 'I'm President Trump. You saved my university.' And I said, 'How the hell do you know that?'… This person is so smart, so sharp,” Trump recalled.

“He grabbed me and gave me a kiss,” she added. “I said, 'I don't think I'll ever go home to the first lady.'”

“You were supposed to keep that quiet,” Montgomery laughed.

The former president praised Montgomery, describing her as “incredible” with a “tremendous future,” and told her he would do “everything I can to help her,” before handing her the podium.

“I want to add something to what others have said,” the conservative activist began. “We have to do everything we can to spread the message. The struggle is pointless if all we do is talk about it amongst ourselves.”

Montgomery added that she was the founder of an organization called Conserve the Culture, which helps “mobilize HBCU students so they can get this education.” [conservative] message.”

“Nobody needs this message more than my parents, so do you really care?” Montgomery told the cheering audience. “Are you really with us?”

“I'll give it back to Big T.”

The rally came days after Trump came under fire from the White House for remarks he made at the recent National Association of Black Journalists convention about Vice President Kamala Harris' racial identity.

“She always had Indian ancestry and she just promoted that ancestry,” Trump said. “I didn't know she was black until a few years ago when she became black. And now she wants to be known as black. So I don't know, is she Indian or is she black?”

On Wednesday, Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson praised Trump for “answering tough questions” at the conference.

“I commend my friend @realdonaldtrump for walking into a hostile environment at @NABJ today and answering tough questions,” Carson said in a post on X.
