Obama also condemned Republican leaders who have come out saying Trump’s conversation was despicable but have not yet un-endorsed the Republican nominee.

As Obama was speaking two protesters could be seen at the front of the stage with their hands in the air and shirts on that said ‘Bill Clinton rapist.’

Another protester was seen at the front of the crowd again a little later in the President’s speech yelling inaudible chants.
