Perhaps you remember this video from a couple of years ago, when Ken E Nwadike Jr., who runs a race events company, gave away free hugs at the Boston Marathon, a year after the terrorist bombing killed innocent people and united a city in the process.
Inspiring, indeed.
He's still at it with his Free Hugs Project. Unfortunately, it's hard to see where it's catching on.
He went to a Donald Trump rally in Wisconsin. Let's just say it's no Boston.
On the Free Hugs Project's Facebook page, a woman says she was at the Trump rally and says Nwadike got plenty of hugs from Trump supporters.
