More than half of arrested anti-Trump protesters didn't vote in Oregon

http://www.kgw.com/news/local/more-t...vote/351964445

I suspect that - if the media was at all curious about who these folks really are - they'd follow the money back to Dem front / PACs. We learned that this was going on prior to the election courtesy the Project Veritas videos, and it doesn't seem likely that they'd stop now just because the election is over. In fact, for the sake of preserving Obama's legislative legacy, it may be more important now that before the election.

Protesters putting on a good show for the news cameras, quite possibly (probably) organized and paid for by the Dems. So much for Obama's comments about giving the new administration a chance to lead. How nice.

Project Veritas is where you get your news??? Figures. If you believe that the majority of anti-Trump demonstrators across the country are financed by the DNC and Soros, you are as ill-informed as your Fuhrer.

Often there is no need to finance demonstrations.

Front organizations manipulate demonstrations.

Whatever Finn. I'm sure it doesn't matter to you that these folks were caught on video, and as a result some of them resigned.

On the other hand. Sometimes a demonstration is infiltrated to discredit it.

Great point Robbin, see we do agree on fundamental principles. Everyone has a right to organize and protest, even by those who fervently supported Hillary (if they must).
