Trump: Protesters at GOP town halls ‘planned out by liberal activists’

President Trump on Tuesday said that liberal activists are orchestrating agitated crowds in GOP lawmakers’ home districts across the country.

“The so-called angry crowds in home districts of some Republicans are actually, in numerous cases, planned out by liberal activists. Sad!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

{mosads}Republican lawmakers across the country have faced crowds of protesters at town halls in their districts in recent weeks.

Rep. Tom McClintock (R-Calif.) and Rep. Gus Bilirakis (R-Fla.) both encountered protesters at recent gatherings in their home districts.

House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) earlier this month faced a group of demonstrators in his district as protesters called into question his treatment of President Trump.
