President Biden responded to a heckler while delivering remarks in Milwaukee, Wis., on Monday, saying “everyone’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Biden traveled to Wisconsin on Labor Day to deliver a speech at Milwaukee Laborfest where he spoke about his support for unions and lauded Democratic legislative victories such as last year’s coronavirus relief package and bill to invest in domestic semiconductor manufacturing that he signed into law last month.

At one point someone in the audience could be heard trying to disrupt the speech.
