The man who apparently called Donald Trump a “pedophile protector” has spoken out after he was suspended. The President was touring a Ford plant in Michigan when an autoworker, now identified as TJ Sabula, shouted the insult. TJ revealed that while he has “no regrets whatsoever” about the jibe, he is concerned about his job security after being suspended by Ford.
TJ Sabula was suspended from his job after the incident with Donald Trump
Trump was visiting the Ford manufacturing site in River Rouge on Tuesday when the drama occurred. Autoworker TJ Sabula apparently called him a “pedophile protector.”
Trump, who is of course renowned for his elegant and measured responses, reportedly then hurled obscenities back. In a viral video clip, he can be seen seemingly giving TJ the middle finger.
Following the incident, TJ was suspended without pay. Speaking to the Washington Post, he said “as far as calling him out,” he had “no regrets whatsoever.” He added: “I don’t feel as though fate looks upon you often, and when it does, you better be ready to seize the opportunity. And today I think I did that.”
However, he added he was worried about his job security, and feels he has been “targeted for political retribution” for “embarrassing Trump in front of his friends.”
A GoFundMe has since been set up to help TJ following his suspension. It has currently raised over $260,000, with donors reportedly including the punk band Dropkick Murphys.
White House communications director, Steven Cheung, said in a statement that Trump had given an “appropriate and unambiguous response” when “a lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a complete fit of rage,” per the Guardian.
The Epstein Files Transparency Act called for all Epstein files to be released within 30 days. But so far, only a small portion has come out. One note, allegedly written by Jeffrey Epstein to another convicted predator, claims that Trump loves “young nubile girls.”
