Pete Buttigieg takes down Trump-supporting heckler in Florida

Pete Buttigieg took down a Trump supporting heckler during a speech in Florida by getting him to denounce white supremacy.

With less than a week to go until 3 November’s election, Mr Buttigieg attended a rally in St Pete, Florida, on Wednesday evening, to campaign for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris.

As Mr Buttigieg, 38, spoke on the socially distanced platform, a man wearing a Make America Great Again hat and cargo shorts attempted to disrupt his speech while live-streaming the event, according to Pink News.

While staffers at the rally guarded the man to make sure he did not go on stage, Mr Buttigieg said in reference to Mr Biden: “Wouldn’t it be nice to have a president who cares just as much about protecting the lives of those that protest us as those who stand at our side?
