President Donald Trump was interrupted by several demonstrators during his rally in Kansas — right after he took the stage, as he bragged about winning the red state “three times.”

Minutes into his speech in Park City Monday night, Trump was heckled by at least two people — which has become a common occurrence as he stumps for Republican candidates in the upcoming midterm elections .

Trump won Kansas by more than 56 percent in the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections, and in 2024, he got 57.2 percent of the vote, according to 270toWin .

Trump’s supporters booed at the protester as the president fired off his usual insults — but their focus was clearly broken as the president tried to push through the commotion.

“Now he goes home to mom and dad,” Trump said. “They slap him around, they say I voted for that man.” Trump used the same “your mom” joke when he was interrupted by protesters in Texas, Ohio and Alaska at rallies this month.

Moments later, another protester interrupted Trump’s speech in Kansas. “How great is it to be at a Trump rally,” the president said in an apparent effort to flaunt his support.

The crowd cheered, and then Trump added another dig: "Whatever you do, get out and vote so we can get rid of idiots like that.”

“It never ends…the Dumocrats they’re so bad,” Trump said, using his belittling nickname for Democrats . “They don’t realize what’s gonna hit ‘em.”

By the fourth interruption in his speech, Trump accused the protesters of being young people who get paid $250 to cause a disturbance and then “ruin their whole lives.”

“The amazing thing — these kids get paid $250 for that, and then they ruin their whole lives, ‘cause they get arrested,” Trump said. “I don’t like to do it, actually, a lot of times I say, ‘Don’t do it.’ They get 250 bucks, and they scream out some stupid thing.”

Trump was in Park City Monday night to support Republican Sen. Roger Marshall in his race against Democrat pastor Adam Hamilton.

Kansas is one of several red states where Democrats are gaining support . Hamilton was up 3 points in a recent YouGov poll. Forty-eight percent of likely Kansas voters supported Hamilton while 45 percent backed Marshall.

In his speech, Trump defended Marshall following a report about the senator’s legal actions against patients during his decades-long career as an obstetrician-gynecologist.
