Guess the protests really struck a nerve.
NBC News said:The president then followed up by repeating an unsubstantiated claim he's made before that some of the protesters against him were "paid," an allegation that became popular in some right-wing circles in the build up to the 2016 presidential election, before noting that the election was "over."
Trump himself used paid actors to pose as rally attendees during his campaign, and has talked at length about the election results since his victory while criticizing his former rival Hillary Clinton.
More than four months after winning the presidency, Trump continued to attack Clinton at a rally in Nashville, Tennessee, this March.
The Tax Day protesters called for Trump to release his tax returns something nearly all major presidential candidates have done since the 1970s and call on lawmakers to represent their interests over those of major corporations.
The President of the United States said:I did what was an almost an impossible thing to do for a Republican-easily won the Electoral College! Now Tax Returns are brought up again?
The President of the United States said:Someone should look into who paid for the small organized rallies yesterday. The election is over!
