Yesterday, President Barack Obama was out campaigning for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton in North Carolina. During his speech, the President was interrupted by protesters wearing t-shirts that called former President Bill Clinton a rapist.
The supporters of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump were harping on things that Bill Clinton did 20 years ago because they are in denial about things that Trump said 11 years ago.
This past weekend, a tape from an old Access Hollywood special surfaced. It showed Trump bragging about forcing himself on women. It has the now famous quote with Trump saying he was able to grab unwilling women “by the p*ssy.” He also talked about moving on a woman “like a bitch,” and he talked about how much he wanted to “f*ck her.”
Trump supporters have decided to focus on the affairs Bill Clinton had 20 years ago. These protesters and hecklers really need to get some new material. President Obama wasn’t tolerating that foolishness for a minute.
Obama had this to say to the hecklers as they were escorted out of the rally:
“Is somebody hollering again? You know what? Here’s the deal. Try to get your own rally. You gotta get your own rally. See, if you can’t get your own rally, don’t come mess up somebody else’s rally.”
Here is a clip of the hecklers being escorted out:
They were not the only protesters interrupting Clinton rallies. Hillary Clinton and former Vice President Al Gore were also having a rally in Florida. Protesters wearing similarly offensive shirts were escorted out for being disruptive.
This is not the first time President Obama has dealt with hecklers. He has frequently told rally attendees “Don’t boo. Vote.” One time he shut down some protesters at the White House with:
“You’re in my house. It’s not respectful.”
