About the only one that isn't an op-ed type 'report' is the CNN one quoting Chaffetz who gives ZERO proof the opposition was anything but volunteers. Claims with little to back them seems to be the new norm for the rabid right.

Breitbart seems to claim the rabid right is going to bus 'plants' in, not the 'lefties'

I can see where you think dems have to be paid to participate, it has been a claim for decades now where the rabid right claims busloads of voters go from poll place to poll place voting repeatedly- no real proof, just claims.

Now I don't doubt many of Trumps folks are mad he is backing away from the more bombastic attacks- he dropped 'lock her up', completely gutting the ACA, for instance, but to try and claim only dems are mad at him is silly.

But silly again seems to be the new norm in the party I once belonged to... :peace

Of course they are. But an uninformed readership can be very gullible when the media is deliberately misleading.

When you see the ads for protesters on Craigs List, it does add validity to the opinions.

Probably the most misinformed and misled group of voters I have ever seen.

The comments for the video are classic though. Over 1,500 comments of verbal warfare between both ends of the political spectrum:shock::shock:

There is nothing in this post of yours that is true. Trump supporters are quite happy and unfazed by all this organized leftist commotion. You are simply reflecting what you WISH to be true rather than what actually is true. Perhaps you might speak to what you know rather than what you don't.

I'm hearing this from the right and the left. The right are asking the question - where is the health care bill? Some of the Trump voters from this forum have started speaking up. I use the word voter, not supporter, because some voted for Trump just because they didn't like the alternative. And how presidential is it for somebody to go out of his way to defend Milo Y, who said, "I'm not a bigot, because I suck a lot of black ****? You wonder why some are shying away...

Except the ad for protesters was a FAKE ad on Craig's List.

That was made up

From this

Donald Trump has suggested that paid protesters targeted his rallies during the 2016 campaign, and even stronger charges from conspiracy websites such as Infowars have flooded the Internet.

If such claims piqued your interest and you plugged "paid protesters" into Google at mid-day on Nov. 17, at the top of the list is this one: "Donald Trump Protester Speaks Out: 'I Was Paid $3,500 To Protest Trump's Rally.' "


The link cites not one but two seemingly mainstream media outlets. It’s credited to "abcnews.com.co" and includes the abbreviation "(AP)," which is how the Associated Press marks its stories.

But the story doesn’t have anything to do with ABC News, and it doesn’t have anything to do with the Associated Press. It is 100 percent fake.


It was created by Paul Horner, who posts fake news on a variety of websites. Some of his posts go viral, presumably boosting his standing with Google’s news algorithm. The fake news posts typically earn Horner -- according to an interview with the Washington Post -- $10,000 a month in ad sales.

In the Post interview, Horner took credit for the fake news item about the protester being paid $3,500.

"His followers don’t fact-check anything — they’ll post everything, believe anything," Horner said. Referring to then-Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, Horner said, "His campaign manager posted my story about a protester getting paid $3,500 as fact. Like, I made that up. I posted a fake ad on Craigslist."

The $3,500 ad of course was bogus. Nobody, not even Soros, pays that kind of money for a single protester. But we have a grand nephew who regularly participates in the more hostile demonstrations on the east coast and according to his dad, my husband's father, the kid (20 something), does receive some compensation from somebody for doing this. The kid isn't sure who pays him and the amounts vary from a few dollars up to a hundred or so. The father is not thrilled with this at all and is worried the kid's butt is going to wind up in jail.

There were a couple of classified ads in the Albuquerque Journal advertising for protesters at the Trump rally here. There was no mention of money so I don't know. Word got around pretty fast.

But I have another grand nephew who is a police officer on the Albuquerque Police Force and is decidedly anti-Trump. He was on duty during the riot that broke out here and told me later that he is reasonably certain that most of the more violent people at the Trump rally were outsiders and not from here.
