Heckler shouts down Biden in this hilarious video
Biden could barely get through a speech with a teleprompter and silence. Now he’s up against the wall.
Because a heckler shouted down Biden in this hilarious video.
On Thursday, President Joe Biden was interrupted by a heckler demanding for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas conflict.
Biden was in Belvidere, Illinois, to celebrate a new deal with United Auto Workers members.
However, barely minutes into Biden’s speech, a member in the audience began yelling at the president.
“You need to call for a ceasefire in Gaza!” a woman could be heard shouting.
She was immediately drowned out by the crowd, and was escorted out of the room.
“Get ’em out! Get ’em out!” one person could be heard yelling in response to the protester.

Before starting his address, Biden stayed calm but did not respond substantively to the demand.
The event contrasts with another that occurred last week, when the president told a protester that a pause might be in order.
“I think we need a pause. A pause means give time to get the prisoners out,” he said when a Reconstructionist rabbi interrupted a Nov. 2 speech.
A reporter on the White House South Lawn asked Biden about the potential of a ceasefire before he left for Illinois on Thursday morning.
“What are the chances of a Gaza ceasefire?” inquired the reporter.
“None,” Biden stated. “No possibility.”
Since the Oct. 7 Hamas terrorist strikes, Biden has consistently stated his support for Israel, sharing anecdotes of his visits to the country and stating that it has the right to defend itself.
Meanwhile, the White House has taken steps to combat supposed Islamophobia, despite claims indicating their popularity among American Muslims is dwindling.
The Democrats have a problem on their hand now. They can either support Israel, and have the likes of Congresswomen AOC and Tlaib call for their resignations and violence.
Or they can support Palestine, a state run by a known terrorist organization with a stated goal of eliminating Israel.
This is a terrible hand they’ve been dealt.
