Former President Barack Obama dealt with a heckler in Michigan on Saturday while stumping for Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.
Obama — speaking in front of a packed house in Detroit — expressed despair at the ongoing radicalization of U.S. politics and warned that “more people are gonna get hurt” if tensions do not deescalate.
Obama was interrupted by a heckler who shouted out during a pause in the former president’s speech. The interrupter, a male, could not be understood from initial video.
“Sir, this is what I’m saying,” Obama said to the heckler, exasperated. “We’ve got a process that we set up in our democracy.”
