The Detroit auto worker whom Joe Biden called "full of shit" responded to the former vice president's attack, saying their conversation was "disturbing."

"I thought I was pretty articulate and respectful," Jerry Wayne said Wednesday on Fox & Friends about his interaction with Biden. "I didn’t try to raise any — any feathers. And he kind of just went off the deep end. I saw that he was digging a hole. And I just kind of let him talk for a while to dig the hole."

Biden launched his profane criticism of Wayne on Tuesday after the auto worker argued that the 2020 Democrat wants to take away his guns.

"You’re full of shit," Biden told him. "I support the Second Amendment."

Wayne told Fox News that the former Delaware senator should not try to restrict firearms if he wants to win the 2020 presidential election.

"He doesn’t need to touch anybody’s weapon at all. What we need to do is, we need to concentrate on teaching people how to respect firearms and how to use them, not take them away," he said.

The interaction came after Biden promised last week to put former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, who ended his own White House bid in November, in charge of gun reform. O'Rourke has made controversial remarks on guns, including saying, "Hell yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47."
