For anyone who has been paying attention in recent months, the anti-Trump protests have clearly had a shade of dishonesty to them. Even protests dating back to 2023 on the Columbia University campus had a clear line to the fact that protestors were paid to incited unrest and violence. That has once again become evident with recent anti-ICE and so-called "No Kings" protests.

Anyone who has said protestors were paid has been labeled a radical far-right conspiracy theorist. But as with many of those theories in the last few years, it turns out, the conspiracy theorists were right. An advocacy group CEO said recently he turned down a $20 million offer to recruit anti-Trump protestors for a national rally.

Political consultant Luke Maias says this is not surprising, especially for those who have been paying attention.

"Leftists who want to stir up division are realizing it is actually more effective to write a million-dollar check, to pay people to cause division...than it is to send that money to a politician," he says.

Most of the protests have been questionable anyway. For starters, mainstream media tends to report that droves of people turn up to these protests. In reality, it might be a couple hundred people. A far cry from some impactful movement.

But also, there is just no real sense to it. Most people are not waking up wanting to go out and protests. People have lives, jobs, and families. They do not simply have the time nor energy to go out and bark about a cause that will not change anything.

"One of the reasons they have to pay them is because normal people do not get up to go protest these radical left-wing causes," says Macias. "So the only way to actually create this view that there is real energy behind them is to simply pay people a ton of money."

A $20 million offer is nothing to sneeze at, but Adam Swart of Crowds on Demand shot it down. Surely much to the dismay of the Leftist lunatics.

More and more are also shooting down such offers, as they prefer not to get into the 'let's sow unrest for our crazy causes' game. The public is also waking up to the fact that these protestors simply are not real. But that has never stopped Democrats from trying to get their way.

"Do not think these Leftist philanthropists will be phased by a couple people saying no," Macias says.

He adds that this will continue as long as money is flowing, and the unrest stays stirred.
