"He [Trump] loves to be adored. And they make it that way so that the people around him adore him. But for one brief moment during that tour of that Ford plant today, that bubble was pierced when a heckler shouted at Trump and seemed to call him a, quote, pedophile protector. Now Trump pointed right at him, mouthed F you, and then appeared to give him the middle finger."
"And the White House seemed to confirm as much in a statement to several news outlets late today, calling it, quote, an appropriate and unambiguous response. I have given a lot of statements from White Houses. I'm trying to imagine well any president I ever worked for doing that and defending it if so. But here we are in 2026."
President Donald Trump pointed, mouthed "F you," and appeared to give the middle finger to a heckler during a tour of a Ford plant before a Detroit Economic Club speech. The heckler, 40-year-old TJ Sabula, was suspended from his job after the incident. The White House described the gesture as "an appropriate and unambiguous response." Jen Psaki framed the gesture as a middle finger directed at everyone who speaks out against Trump on issues such as the Epstein files, the killing of Renee Good, and other controversies.
