Overview
- Cellphone video shows President Donald Trump twice mouthing "Fuck you" and giving the middle finger during a Ford factory walk-through in Dearborn, Michigan.
- The worker, identified in reports as 40-year-old TJ Sabula, told the Washington Post he had "definitely no remorse" and said he feared retaliation.
- Ford suspended the employee pending an internal review, with the company stressing workplace standards against inappropriate remarks.
- An online fundraiser organized by Sean Williams on GoFundMe surged past $250,000 within hours to support the suspended worker.
- Trump’s spokesman Steven Cheung confirmed the video’s authenticity and defended the response, as coverage tied the exchange to lingering scrutiny over Jeffrey Epstein-related records.
