President Donald Trump lashed out at a protester screaming "pedophile protector!" while he was speaking in Michigan on Monday.
Trump was in the Great Lakes State to speak about the economy at the GM Proving Grounds in Milford when a demonstrator started heckling him from the crowd over his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Trump snapped back.
"He's a communist," Trump said as the audience started chanting "U-S-A."
