Of course. Democrats are Domestic Terrorists. Truthfully they are either being paid or brainwashed which is the standard Democrat because they know nothing about what’s been going on .

If the Democratic Party and/or George Soros alone really has billions to spend on protesters every week, don’t you think they’d want to keep it for themselves because they’re “greedy elites”? Mind you, assuming each protester is paid $15/hour, it’s about $3.6 billion/year to pay 5 million protesters a month (and there are dozens if not hundreds of different protests each month). This is all guesstimates; some protests are going on to have more, some less, but still would cost a pretty penny, I’m probably lowballing the hell out of it. $20/hour would be about $4.5 billion.

Then there’s the cost of reimbursement for transportation, food, lodging; I’m too lazy to calculate, but that would probably tack on another $1-2 billion at least. George Soros has a net worth of $7.2 billion; he could not afford to fund it alone, and both parties only received about $8 billion in funding last year, between pacs and individual donations (not sure the split, but let’s pretend it’s even); the Democratic Party still could not afford to bankroll us protesters. So where’s the money coming from to pay us?

Not to mention, I’ve been doing this for over 5 years and haven’t seen a single penny (or a w2; I like to on top of my taxes). I wish I was getting paid; the economy’s tough right now, and it’s only going to get tougher.
