Trump: 'Paid Troublemakers' Roiling GOP Town Halls
President Donald Trump said "paid troublemakers" are to blame for the recent spate of contentious Republican town halls.
"Paid "troublemakers" are attending Republican Town Hall Meetings," Trump wrote on Truth Social on Monday. "It is all part of the game for the Democrats, but just like our big LANDSLIDE ELECTION, it's not going to work for them!"
Rep. Glenn Grothman, R-Wis., was booed and jeered at a town hall in Wisconsin on Friday when he defended Trump's executive orders for ending birthright citizenship and diversity, equity and inclusion programs, according to Wisconsin Public Radio.
Several people yelled "no!" when Grothman said he wanted to reform welfare, and constituents yelled at him over Elon Musk's involvement in the White House, WPR reported.
