Donald Trump may have a point about paid protesters: Job ads running in more than 20 cities offer $2,500 per month for agitators to demonstrate at this weeks presidential inauguration events.
Demand Protest, a San Francisco company that bills itself as the largest private grassroots support organization in the United States, posted identical ads Jan. 12 in multiple cities on Backpage.com seeking operatives.
Get paid fighting against Trump! says the ad.

My sources tell me the operation is located in Portland, OR probably getting funding from San Francisco.
Portland has a long track record of running Internet Attack websites way back to the 90’s.
They were behind the CPU battles between Intel and AMD and they would flood all the tech websites with Anti-Intel stories.
Eventually, someone ID’d the Portland operation and it got shut down.
Pay them enough $$$ and they will attack anyone or any company.
$2500? And now we’ve come to this. Why just a short while ago things were much more civilized when Madonna was offering free bjs just for voting.
How do you prove you are agitating, get arrested?
The Obama legacy is one of racism...Obama's....the biggest racist of them all.
This is not unlike how the left desperately wants to believe the "golden showers" story.
If they are willing to feign any kind of deep, burning conviction, has anyone ever heard of such a thing as paid participants in conservative activities?
Would this not fall under RICO statutes for organized crime?
For conservatives, yes. For libs-———another day at the office.
Just a warning to all you soulless mercenary protesters out there: We all know you are doing it for the money, but your bosses ARE liberals. See the cash, the do-re-mi, the lettuce FIRST. Taking their word that they will pay you on Tuesday, for law breaking today just means you’ll be a broke jail bird come Tuesday.
You better get paid upfront to help pay for your court costs
The site was real, they have been running ads nearly identical on Craig’s List for nearly a year. It’s real news. They hire and pay people to protest.
“This whole operation REEKS of Soros!!!!”
Of course it’s Soros.
Trump needs to arrest him as a terrorist.
publius911, take me with you. I agree. Even older people can reload and take facial photos. I would help all I could.
And speaking of slimebags, I wonder what is wrong with all those women who worry about Trumps’ purported misogyny. They should be looking at what has happened to women in Germany and Sweden and doing evrything they can to get rid of the Islamist and genital cutters in our own country. Sometimes I feel shame when my sex acts like this. Mostly it is a laughing matter, but not this time.
Bingo!! With hidden CAMERAS!
The ad is still up at Backpage.com Charlotte, pretty much the same wording.....

If any of these idiots think they’re actually going to get paid, they’re chumps.
Anybody got a screenshot of the ads?
Well, we do have to admit Trump was telling the truth about creating jobs. He did NOT say he was going to create “civil disobedience” workers. Time to shut those idiotic people down once and for all.
