"TJ Sabula is said to have called the president a pedophile protector as Trump toured the automotive giant's River Rouge complex on Tuesday. Trump then appeared to give Sabula the middle finger, according to a video published by celebrity news and gossip site TMZ, which claimed that Trump also yelled obscenities prior to making the gesture. In an interview with the Washington Post, Sabula said as far as calling him out he had definitely no regrets whatsoever."
"I don't feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity, Sabula added in the interview. And today I think I did that. A GoFundMe was created on his behalf to help cover lost income from the suspension. As of Wednesday lunchtime, it had raised more than $150,000, with purported donors including the band the Dropkick Murphys."
"Ford did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The White House communications director, Steven Cheung, didn't confirm whether Trump flashed his middle finger, but argued in a statement to the Guardian that the president had given an appropriate and unambiguous response when a lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a complete fit of rage. The United Auto Workers criticized Sabula's suspension, and vowed to fight it."
TJ Sabula, a father of two and a UAW Local 600 line worker at Ford's River Rouge complex, heckled President Trump, calling him a pedophile protector. Trump appeared to respond by giving Sabula the middle finger while a TMZ-published video claims Trump also yelled obscenities. Sabula expressed no regrets but expressed concern about job security, alleging political retribution and embarrassment to Trump’s associates. Sabula said fate presented an opportunity and he seized it. A GoFundMe created to cover lost income had raised more than $150,000 by Wednesday, with donors reportedly including the Dropkick Murphys. Ford did not immediately comment. The White House defended Trump's reaction and the UAW vowed to contest the suspension.
