Trump confirmed the incident late Tuesday night.

Since the president took office, conservatives, including members of President Donald Trump’s cabinet, have often faced harassment and threats when out in public. (RELATED: Sen. Ted Cruz Describes The Mob That Surrounded And Chased Him Out Of A Restaurant)
