President Trump on Friday slammed a very particular protest group and their polished-looking protest signs. "The very rude elevator screamers are paid professionals only looking to make Senators look bad," he tweeted. "Don't fall for it! Also, look at all of the professionally made identical signs. Paid for by Soros and others. These are not signs made in the basement from love! #Troublemakers" Billionaire George Soros has given generously to a number of liberal causes and candidates, but it's unclear if he supplied the signs or if they were simply created on a computer and printed at any one of a number of affordable, quick-service shops. Some of those staging protests outside of elevators in the Capitol Hill confronted Republican Senator Orrin Hatch on Thursday, notes Slate. He dismissed the women, told them to "grow up," and then waved at them while standing behind a security detail. Senator Jeff Flake seemed to be more accommodating, apparently listening last week while a woman told her own story of sexual assault and later demanding that the FBI conduct further investigation into the sexual assault allegations against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
