Trump swipes at rally security for giving 'slob' protester who flipped middle finger 'so much time'

President Trump called out security personnel for not removing a protester more quickly at his Wednesday rally, which took place the same time that House Democrats voted to impeach him over his dealings with Ukraine.

Early during his event in Battle Creek, Mich., Trump was interrupted by loud boos from his audience that were directed at a protester. In footage captured at the rally, the woman could be seen flipping the bird while being escorted out by security.

“This is one person who made a horrible gesture only because the security man let her have so much time,” he began to say. “And usually, I have to say, the police do an incredible job. Incredible. They do it so quickly.”

“There's a real slob. Wait a minute. She’ll get hell when she gets back home with mom. ... She screams a little bit, and you know what I like to do to avoid them,” he continued.

"Because I’ll tell you the big problem. I could hardly hear her. What happens is all of you people go crazy. 'Look, look, look.' ... So there’s one disgusting person who made — wait, wait — who, I wouldn’t say this, but who made a horrible gesture with the wrong finger, right?" he continued. "Now, they won’t say that, the fake news media. They won’t say it. If one of us did that it would be like the biggest story ever."

“And I’ll tell you another thing,” he went on. “I don’t know who the security company is, but the police came up, but they want to be so politically correct. So they don’t grab her wrist lightly. Get her out! They say, ‘Oh, will you please come? Please come with me. Sir. Ma’am. Will you — and then she gives the guy the finger. Oh. Oh. You gotta get a little bit stronger than that, folks.”
