TJ Sabula, 40, shouted "pedophile protector" at Trump on Tuesday during a visit to the Ford plant in Detroit. After hearing the insult, an angry Trump pointed his finger and said "f--- you" to Sabula twice before flipping the bird at the worker. "As far as calling him out, definitely no regrets whatsoever," Sabula told The Washington Post.

He should've called him a disgusting orange chomo.

We're a TV nation. Pacified through the use of the television, Not to forget the indoctrination of cop shows and the like glorifying the police as the saviors we need to worship and defer to. It's sad. It really is.

Respect is earned, not stolen or acquired by virtue of holding an office.
Trump is a greedy, disrespectful bum by choice; eff him.

"Pedophile protector" is only one of many characteristics that define this sleazy, demented president. But I'm glad to know that using this particular term got under his skin. I think marching around with signs to that effect next time he comes to your town is warranted.

Not to love Der Fuehrer is a great disgrace
So we heil, heil right in Der Fuehrer's face

Morning, Coriolanus ... I wonder how that person circled in red fared during the ensuing conflagration. As for the rest, like it or not, they were aiding and abetting. Right, MAGAts?

Hi Doc Sarvis:

This man may have been properly identified by his descendants in Germany.

For decades people thought this lone dissident was August Landmesser, but family members of Wegert Gustav came forward decades later with photos proving that it was him in the photo.

See, MAGA, it is possible to speak your truth to power, to display courage in the face of those who would deprive you of your...well, pretty much everything, since Trump is about destroying the independent voices of the media, and colleges, and businesses.

And the union has already filed a grievance and he will be compensated for their stupidity.

Donald Trump is either protecting pedophiles or he is a pedophile.

Those are the only 2 options.

"White House Communications Director Steven Cheung said earlier that, "A lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a complete fit of rage, and the President gave an appropriate and unambiguous response."

They are lying about the incident just like they are lying to protect murderous ICE agents.
Epstein's best friend is very clearly a pedophile protector and the White House should just acknowledge it and move on since the Supreme Court said it's ok for the President to protect pedo's as long as he does it through official acts.

Nope, because the answer is option 3 - both statements are true.

That factory worker just made over $200,000 in his gofundme account for that little outburst.

Let that be a lesson to us all!
