An apparent Trump supporter reportedly yelled gay and racial slurs at President Joe Biden as he visited an ice cream shop following a speech on economic policy at Cuyahoga Community College in Cleveland on Thursday afternoon.
Biden made an unscheduled stop at Honey Hut Ice Cream, where he ordered a chocolate chocolate chip cone.
That’s when a “very angry person” yelled, “”F*ck you, motherf*ckers! … c*cksuckers!” at Biden and reporters as they walked back to their vans.
“The angry person also yelled slurs for Black and gay people at the press and WH staff,” according to a White House pool report.
Also during the visit, Biden weighed in on Senate Republicans’ plan to block the creation of an independent, bipartisan commission to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection. A vote blocking the commission was expected to come Thursday evening.
“I can’t imagine anyone voting against establishing a commission on the greatest assault since the Civil War on the Capitol,” Biden said. “But at any rate, I came for ice cream.”
