Holy fucking manipulative bullshit.

They're not being hired or paid, their outrage isn't fake... they're really pissed off, so when someone says 'we're protesting... why not join us', they say "YES".

The only scandal here is that Trump is the president.

Right. Whereas there was no organized money behind the ass clown reality TV star.

So anyway, where have you been with that 'Hillary Goldman Sachs Clinton' thing lately?

Aw, just because the Trumpery has four Goldman Sachs guys in place, why would that stop you? That's almost as silly as letting facts get in the way of your stumbling and bumbling ass hat routine.

Your two minute Vaudeville act tryout forty minutes before opening doors is sorely missed by the ushers. Good comedy is always appreciated by some, even if it would never sell.

There are groups that are organizing to get constituents to their own representatives' townhall meetings. Is there any proof they're being paid to disrupt?

If I drove a couple neighbors to our representative's town hall and we raised holy hell opposing him/her, would that qualify as astroturf, too?

So, nutsuckers disorganized dissent via Koch bros felchfeeding the nutsucker party is the definition of useful felchgobblers. You yourself are organizing the pimping of pedophiles, criminals, rapists, drug addicts. You are an idiot, never useful. Did anyone organize the election of trump? Say Vlad Putin? or was that just a side effect of your felchgobble?

These are not all indivisible members at townhall btw.

I'd be interested to hear why people who had no problem with the teabaggers spending the last eight years deliberately disrupting townhall meetings feel that they're entitled to complain about this stuff now that the shoes on the other foot. If it was Democrats coming out with this crap, I'd say it was barefaced hypocrisy, but apparently the GOP, its lobbyists, its backers and its supporters are incapable of that, and hypocrisy is purely a problem on the "left"...

Who is driving this nice elderly couple to their neighboring state's Republican townhall riot

In many ways, the week has been a tour de force of Democratic campaign strategy and grass-roots organizing. From running missing-person ads to renting billboards, organizers have used a number of creative methods to draw attention to lawmakers seen as avoiding the public. Lists were circulated detailing where Congress members would be during the week and tips distributed on how best to raise concerns at representatives� town hall meetings.

I bet you believe the chap that demands they are being paid 1500 a week to protest

these protests have been going on since jan 21.. the noise is getting louder,
Marco rubio wont hold a town hall, plenty of others are hiding.
No violence at the town halls, or are you praying for agitators
How many hundreds of thousands of protestors are there?
Ive watched lots of town halls...quite enjoyed a few of them, the town halls during the spring and summer should be fun..

There has been a lot of violence, more than four. Every Trump rally, at the inauguration, attendees including women have been beaten and pepper sprayed, police have been injured. Republicans have had to rely on armed police escorts against the alt left mobs

Of course, since you are an alt left radical you think that's great but I seriously doubt that thoughtful people will concur that democracy means mobbing and rioting and intimidating and using actual violence to further ones political goals

"Protesters" find politician's homes and camp outside. Ivanka Trump was viciously harassed as she took her babies through an airport

quote:

Barbarians at the Gate: Town Halls Under Siege

Across the country, angry mobs of protesters are flooding town hall meetings of GOP senators and representatives. The liberal media is enjoying the spectacle and emphasizing the supposed grassroots anger of average Americans.

Among many issues, the attendees have been screaming about Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and her reform agenda, phony “Russian” connections to the administration, efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare, plans to dismantle onerous EPA regulations and the administration’s directive to rescind Obama’s public school mandate to accommodate transgender students. As usual, the left cannot engage in a civil debate, so too many of these town hall protesters have made vile comments, threatened Republicans in attendance and tried to intimidate the GOP politicians hosting the meetings.

Unfortunately, it has gotten so out of control that some congressmen such as Texas Republican Louie Gohmert have been forced to cancel their town hall meetings. Gohmert said that the protesters were “from the more violent strains of the leftist ideology, some are even being paid, who are preying on public town halls to wreak havoc and threaten public safety.” Others such as House Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA) decided to utilize telephone town hall meetings to receive legitimate input from their constituents. These moves were necessary because the hostile crowds are not genuine demonstrations of popular outrage, they are manufactured protests funded by liberal organizations like MoveOn.org.

At a town hall meeting in Metairie, Louisiana on Wednesday, GOP Senator Bill Cassidy had to endure abuse from several hundred enraged activists. Frequently, he was jeered and not allowed to fully answer questions. On my Ringside Politics radio program, several attendees of the meeting reported that in the venue parking lot were plenty of vehicles with out of state license plates. Obviously, activists from outside of Louisiana converged on the town hall meeting to create a total ruckus. Sadly, their disgraceful objective was achieved.

At the Cassidy meeting, the Louisiana State Chaplain, Michael Sprague, was booed when he attempted to give the invocation. As Sprague was about to commence with the prayer, one agitated malcontent yelled, “Let’s get on with it.” Another person screamed, “Pray on your own time.” It was so bad that Senator Cassidy told a friend after the meeting that he was amazed the angry crowd “booed the name of Jesus.”

The mob also booed their country. Landon Allen, a decorated Vietnam War combat veteran with 20 years of service to his country, was interrupted as he tried to lead the group in the Pledge of Allegiance. In fact, in a social media post, Allen expressed his shock and disappointment that “the crowd would not calm down or stand for the pledge.” Allen noted that he was “blessed” to have served four tours of duty in Vietnam and that he now works with other veterans who have also made sacrifices so that town hall protesters can air grievances and “not stand for the pledge!”

Some have compared these leftist agitators to the Tea Party activists who attended rallies in 2009 and 2010. Of course, there are many differences such as the fact that Tea Party participants were not paid to attend. At Tea Party rallies, patriots waved American flags and stood for the pledge. We sang the National Anthem with pride and gave thanks to God for the freedoms we enjoy in this country.

Unlike today’s leftist mob, Tea Party supporters were respectful of others, did not curse or engage in violence. I was proud to have organized successful Tea Party events in Louisiana. We disagreed with the direction of the country under President Obama and used our First Amendment rights to advocate political changes. We helped elect a Republican House in 2010, a Republican Senate in 2014 and President Donald Trump in 2016.

Unfortunately, many of today’s militant leftists attending the town hall meetings are not interested in debating or even discussing the issues. They are angry that change is coming to the country. They want socialized medicine, big government, regulations and open borders to continue.

Since the election of Barack Obama as president in 2008, the Democrats have lost 42 U.S. house seats, 11 U.S. Senate seats, 900 state legislative seats and 10 state governorships. They have lost control of the Congress, state legislatures and now the presidency, so even though they don’t like it, they must realize that a massive transformation is coming to the country. It is time to “Make America Great Again!”

Instead of creating disturbances at town hall meetings, liberals should follow the Tea Party playbook and organize for the 2018 mid-term elections. Regrettably, they are acting like spoiled children, expressing their anger by cursing and making threatening comments and only hurting their own cause.

As liberals are exposed in all their fury, more Americans will come to realize that the voters made the right decision in electing Donald Trump as our nation’s 45th president.

There's a difference. I'm not sure it's a dirty trick to invite people to come out and protest what they're already angry about.

The organizers are probably paid. The people at the top of the organizer chain are probably well paid.

You aren't trying to deny that these riots are organized are you? And yes, we have seen many recent "protests" degenerate into riots.

There is a difference between ordinary citizens going to a townhall meeting with their elected representative to participate in the democratic process, and paid organizers whipping up a mob mentality among sore bitter losers.

We have the vote for a reason, we do not choose our leaders through violence or threats of violence

Who cares? I mean actually, who cares?

Are representatives elected to serve only those who voted for them?

Of all the reps hiding (including mine...so we're holding a meeting without her today), what stands out is the story of the Congressman who ignored the advice of his colleagues and held his town halls, instructing his staff NOT to weed anyone out. "Hearing all views, including dissent, is part of the job," he said. I applaud this man. He's the only one (or one of the few) who gets it.

If I can't go talk to my rep, it's time to elect a new rep.

And if people organize to express their displeasure, fine.

Further, national money has been funneled into local races forever. I don't like it, but it's the reality of today's world. You can't be surprised when people take the same national approach to town halls.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

It's a meeting. You listen to some potentially angry people shouting. And you go home and decide what you want to do.

Hardly a crisis.

Well, who is paying them? Nutsuckers? We are told by fake news that only nutsuckers work? But wait a minute, that cant be true, nutsuckers dont pay as much as minimum wage, seems like the nutsuckers are confusing their own felch with their boyfriends felch.
