'Appropriate and unambiguous': White House defends Trump over middle-finger gesture at heckler
The White House said: "A lunatic was wildly screaming expletives in a complete fit of rage, and the President gave an appropriate and unambiguous response."
The heckler has been suspended by Ford, the United Auto Workers union told the BBC's US partner, CBS News.
A Ford spokesperson told CBS: "One of our core values is respect and we don't condone anyone saying anything inappropriate like that within our facilities."
The incident occurred while Trump toured a Ford factory in Michigan; the heckler says he has "no regrets".
