Adam Swart, CEO of Crowds on Demand, stated in a NewsNation interview that his company was offered a contract worth approximately $20 million to recruit demonstrators for a nationwide anti-Trump protest scheduled for Thursday, July 17. Swart said he rejected the offer, citing concerns about the effectiveness of the protests and the potential for violent agitators to hijack the events.
He declined to name the party that made the offer, saying it would be “bad for business” to disclose client identities. The planned demonstrations are part of the “Good Trouble Lives On” movement, organized to honor the late Congressman John Lewis, a vocal Trump critic.
