Hillary Clinton generally doesn’t acknowledge hecklers, but on Tuesday night she took a moment to address one specifically, reports BuzzFeed News.
When Clinton was only minutes into her speech at a campaign rally in Fort Lauderdale, a man shouted, “Bill Clinton is a rapist!”
He was easy to spot, as the individual was carrying a bright green sign emblazoned with the same message.
Clinton pointed in his direction and said, “I am sick and tired of the negative, dark, divisive, dangerous vision and the anger of people who support Donald Trump.”
The heckler was reportedly escorted out of the rally.
Agitators of this kind have been showing up at Clinton rallies for some time.
According to BuzzFeed News, prize money has been one incentive, as radio host and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones offered up to $5,000 to those who appeared on TV while yelling, “Bill Clinton is a rapist.”
