Ford Rouge worker calls Trump ‘pedophile protector,’ president responds with middle finger

During President Trump's visit to the Ford Rouge plant in Dearborn, a viral incident occurred when worker TJ Sabula heckled the president, prompting Trump to respond with a middle finger. The exchange, captured on video, has led to widespread online attention and significant financial support for TJ, who faces job suspension and family concerns. The United Auto Workers union has expressed support for TJ, citing free speech rights, while Ford condemned inappropriate language. The White House labeled the employee a "lunatic," defending Trump's reaction as "appropriate."
