A GoFundMe campaign for a Detroit autoworker who called Donald Trump a “pedophile protector” was suspended from the Ford plant where he worked on Tuesday. But it looks like he’s going to be alright financially. A GoFundMe campaign set up for the Michigan man has already raised over $400,000 and counting.
TJ Sabula, a 40-year-old line worker, told the Washington Post he was suspended from his job for shouting “pedophile protector” at Trump during the president’s visit to the Ford F-150 plant. Trump responded, either by audibly saying or just mouthing the words, “fuck you” twice. The president then extended his middle finger as he kept walking.
Two different videos posted to social media captured the exchange, including the first published by TMZ. White House Communications Director Steven Cheung defended Trump’s actions, telling the Washington Post: “A lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a complete fit of rage, and the President gave an appropriate and unambiguous response.”
But he wouldn’t have flipped him off in the first place. Can you picture any other world leader doing this? Maybe the drug thug from the Philippines awhile back. That’s all I can think of.
I can see Basescu doing that to a heckler then laughing with the heckler
Look him up, the Romanian ex-president. Dude had the whole weird fun uncle vibe, and as is custom to say in romania: “He stole but he also did things”
Our steals things, but is also a rapist, pedophile, murderer and racist. Trump is definitely not a “fun” uncle.
He was. The mask is coming off
I could also imagine Silvio Berlusconi doing this, and he was another deeply corrupt avuncular type.
Eh I wouldn’t say Basescu was deeply corrupt. I mean, not compared to our current politicians and others from his own time.
Our last former prime minister was far, FAR worse than Basescu, along with the entire current PSD party, which are also corrupt assholes with no morals.
I think Berlusconi would have thought it was beneath him. He wasn’t the same kind of petty that Trump is.
