If you’ve ever wondered what the official new strategy is for Democrats to be infamous and make money, look no further than the latest chapter in politico-pop culture: heckle the president, get suspended from your job for being a douchebag, then watch your GoFundMe explode like a Hollywood IPO.

At a Ford plant in Michigan this week, a line worker yelled at President Trump and called him a “pedophile protector” – talking points he got online from Democrat politicians, the Leftist media and other douchebags on social media. The Leftist got the perfect reaction he should have gotten from Trump: the president flipped him off (on camera) and every Leftist on social media collectively lost their minds after he was suspended. Then the Leftists sent him money.

TJ Sabula, the line worker, has pulled in more than $800,000 in donations from two different GoFundMe fundraisers from strangers who are ready to toss cash at anyone who hates Trump – and shows it in public. Yes, a Left wing lunatic yells at the president and Leftists all over support him. One of the fundraisers is titled “TJ Sabula is a patriot!!” and says “ Let’s rally and support TJ and help him pay some bills (and force DJT to release the Trump/Epstein Files).”

This is the new playbook for left-leaning fundraising: Step 1 – behave like a douchebag at a high-profile event. Step 2 – cue the GoFundMe avalanche. The Left seems to excel at turning every viral outburst into a revenue stream.

For those of you who don’t remember…In 2020, Democrats promoted bail funds for BLM rioters arrested for assault, arson, and other violent crimes – including the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which covered bail for offenders charged with domestic abuse and sexual assault. Kamala Harris supported this fund. Lovely people (insert sarcasm).

Do you support individual military members being able to opt out of getting the COVID vaccine?
