Alex Bruesewitz is one of the good guys….close with President Trump, a longtime supporter and even advisor.
And he had a nasty medical scare last night.
In case you haven’t seen it, this is a very scary moment:

Everyone immediately started sending up prayers.
With the slurred words and the passing out, it looked like a stroke to many.
Here he is with President Trump:

The NY Post had this update:
Alex Bruesewitz, a top adviser for President-elect Donald Trump, remains in the hospital on Monday, where he’s suffered another fainting spell after tumbling over a lectern on stage Sunday night at a New York Young Republican gala, sources told The Post.
“He is still admitted to a hospital in New York where he has undergone a series of tests. Please keep this young fighter in your thoughts and prayers,” Bruesewitz’s lawyer Joseph D. McBride wrote on X Monday morning.
The 27-year-old Bruesewitz fainted again after being admitted to the hospital, according to two sources familiar with the incident. He had appeared totally fine before the incident at the gala.
The Trump adviser was mid-speech — energetically commending the New York Young Republican Club and giving shout-outs to prominent attendees — when he began slurring his words.
“I said, ‘Alex, you used gravity like I’ve seen nobody use gravity before in their lives,’” he joked. “But he’s recuperating back there, so give him a big cheer so he’ll hear you.”
Human Events editor Jack Posobiec said he spoke to Breusewitz backstage afterward and that he was OK.
“He is getting checked out by medical after having a brief fainting spell onstage. All levels are normal. Only thing he asked me was, ‘Did it look cool?’ He’ll be just fine,” Posobiec wrote on X, also speculating that it was a case of “dehydration + locked legs.”

It’s still a bit unclear what happened to cause this, but Bruesewitz himself just posted this saying he is “back”….
Take a look:
We are back. What a surreal experience.
Maybe I took my Joe Biden impression just a little too far.
All kidding aside, I want to express my deepest gratitude to the exceptional medical team at New York Presbyterian Hospital. The EMTs, nurses, and doctors provided me with…

ADVERTISEMENTSecondly, I am incredibly thankful to all the great patriots at the @NYYRC gala who swiftly came to my aid. A special thanks to Rep. @AndyOgles for staying by my side until the medics took me to the ER.
Lastly, thank you to everyone who prayed for me and sent heartfelt, thoughtful, encouraging messages. I feel truly blessed to be supported by such wonderful people.
(P.S. @danscavino, my bad for ruining your introduction. I assure you, the rest of my speech was going to be great!)
Please continue to pray.
