Paid Agitator? my bet is YES.
Tom Moran did, too.
Standing up the hill, just across an access road from the park, the Fenton, Michigan, man let an over-sized banner offer his thoughts on the pandemic.
“200,000 DEAD,” it read. “Trump FAILED US.”
Moran, 65, said he lost his job working as a bus driver for a Michigan public school because of shutdowns this fall, which he said could have been prevented if Trump took the virus more seriously in January.
Moran said he started attending rallies in his home state earlier this month and decided to continue spreading his message.
“We can’t be intimidated,” Moran said.
Some rally attendees tried to provoke the man, calling the virus a scam or accusing him of ignoring other national issues.
At one point prior to the rally, city police had to escort a Trump supporter away from Moran after he attempted to knock the banner from his hands.
Johnstown’s interim police Chief Chad Miller made the man identify himself and advised him to leave Moran alone after talking to both men. The situation was defused within moments without incident or arrests.
Tom Moran, the protester, said he traveled the 380-some miles from his home in Fenton, Michigan to make his opinion known.
“There’s no school because Trump mismanaged the virus,” Moran said, noting that he’s an out-of-work bus driver. “Pennsylvania is gonna be key (to the election) so I’m doing what I can.”

We spoke to Tom Moran from downstate who drove all the way up to Traverse City to protest Pence’s visit. Pence In Nmi Live Vo 5.transfer
Tom used to be a bus driver for Fenton Schools in Genesee County.
He says because of the COVID-19 outbreak he’s currently out of a job.
Tom says he protested because he believes President Trump has failed to contain the virus.
After sitting out for an hour, the Traverse City Police Department asked him to leave.
“I’m not causing any trouble. I’m staying out of the way. But it’s still a free country. I mean if you don’t like Donald Trump you’re allowed to go to events and if you don’t like Joe Biden, same thing,” said Moran.
Traverse City Police say that he wasn’t allowed to be protesting on city property at the entrance of the airport.
Tom Moran, 64, traveled from his home in Fenton to attend the protest. He said he’s worried that Trump and Republicans will attempt to cut Medicare to reduce future budget deficits.
“If you don’t stick up for yourself and you don’t get out and vote, bad things can happen,” said Moran, a school bus driver who held a sign with the slogan, “Trump sold us out.”
Trump Jr.’s speech included little about the pandemic.
“I believe strongly we need to show support for the moderate Democrats that are putting country before party,” said Tom Moran, a school bus driver who showed up to Monday’s town hall with a giant hand-painted canvas banner that said the congresswoman “commands our respect.”

Tom Moran, Fenton area school bus driver and Joe Biden voter, said he thinks the divide between Sanders and Biden has been overblown. He came to Sunday’s rally at Calder Plaza to remind Sanders’ supporters the two sides must unite.
NOW, I am wondering if retired bus driver “Tom Moran” has a press agent? Which ComDem payroll is he on. He has said he was “layed off”? Wonder why he is spending his social security check to travel 400 miles to be a pain in the rear?
Exactly!
That is my wonderings too! If he was “layed off” then he is getting unemployment +federal bonus? So President Trump hasn’t failed him.
If his schools and governor won’t open the state back up, even after the President encouraged all of them to, that’s not Trump’s fault at all.
Fenton is also my hometown. This guy is an analogy as the area is pretty solidly red-esp. S and W of town proper. I wonder if my dad or uncles ever took this clown’s lunch money in school?
Bam! Knew there was something fishy with Moran.
