Republican U.S. Representative Mike Flood endured a contentious town hall meeting in Nebraska on Monday, as opponents of President Donald Trump's sweeping tax- and spending-cut bill booed and heckled him for over an hour.

Mike Flood faced what appeared to be a hostile crowd during a rowdy town hall on Monday night in Lincoln, Nebraska. The crowd erupted within just minutes of the start of the forum, shouting and heckling at the congressman as he touted President Donald Trump's massive policy and tax bill that was signed into law in July.
