Washington correspondent Gary O’Donoghue, said his colleague Ron Skeans had been filming the rally when he was pushed to the ground by a Trump supporter. “It was an incredibly violent attack. Fortunately our cameraman is fine, he is made of stern stuff,” O'Donoghue told the Today programme. He shared footage of the incident on Twitter. https://twitter.com/BBCBlindGazza/status/1095199227549044736 The footage captured from Skeans’ camera shows the shot focused on Trump before jolting away as he is pushed by a man.
