The Democrat frontrunner for president clashed with members of a key constituency on Tuesday.
Former Vice President Joe Biden was visiting an auto plant under construction in Detroit when several of the workers wanted to talk about his positions on issues.
“You are actively trying to diminish our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms,” one unionist charged.
“You’re full of shit!” Biden responded.
As another attempted to speak up, Biden ordered him twice to “shush.”
“I support the Second Amendment,” the candidate countered.
As Biden said he was going to “take your AR-14s away,” he pointed his finger in the man’s face.
“This is not okay,” the man said, creating a buffer between the finger and his face.
“Don’t tell me anything, pal,” Biden demanded.
The worker continued to defend the Second Amendment and disputed Biden’s interpretation of “assault rifles.”
“Don’t be such a horse’s ass,” Biden said before he walked away.
Biden recently declared that he would appoint Robert “Beto” O’Rourke in charge of his gun policy. O’Rourke has advocated for gun confiscation via a “mandatory buyback” scheme.
