Protests erupt at Biden’s raucous Detroit rally

But at two points, shouts and demonstrations within the crowd interrupted Biden’s remarks.

After Biden took the stage, protesters unfurled banners, one that read: “NAFTA killed our jobs.”

Looking into the crowd, Biden started, “Are you a Donald Trump …?

Then as a member of the crowd tried to tear away the banner, Biden said, “That’s OK, let him go. This is not a Trump rally. Let him go, let him go. The Bernie Bros are here. Let him go.”

Minutes later, a larger group of pro-Green New Deal demonstrators began shouting over Biden’s remarks and waving signs. But as staff members tried moving the group along. Biden senior aide Symone Sanders was hit on the head with an iPad and knocked down. Video of the incident shows her popping right back up; she was reportedly doing fine afterward. Last week, on Super Tuesday, Sanders charged on stage as a protester approached Biden and his wife, Jill, as he spoke in Los Angeles.
