A Montana teenager goes viral after getting replaced at a Trump rally. KTVQ in Billings says 17-year-old Tyler Linfesty was in the crowd of supporters standing behind the President as he gave a speech in Montana Thursday night. The high school senior was seen wearing a plaid shirt and appeared less enthusiastic about the speech than the other supporters. Footage of the rally shows a woman approaching Linfesty during the speech, speaking to him briefly and then replacing him. The switch was noticed by keen observers and the footage went viral with the hashtag #PlaidShirtGuy. Linfesty says he won VIP tickets to the event, but disagreed with most of the policies he heard during the speech. He says after ten minutes, a campaign staffer told him to leave and took his place.
