Activist pulls ruse

P

Ben Mathis-Lilley has a Slate article aout a bogus donation:
Shenanigans! Making fun of Republicans for being Koch Brothers lackeys is kind of old news at this point as political comedy, but this guy gets a lot of credit for creativity and because nine hundred million dollars is a funny number.
Scott Walker agreed to take a picture with this guy whose sign said Walker 4 President, but then he flipped it around...  (Nine hundred million dollars is also how much the Kochs plan to spend on the 2016 campaign.)
Sabrina Siddiqui, the Guardian reporter who sent out the image above, says that the young wisenheimer pictured is affiliated with the 350 climate-change activism group. Kids these days; they really do love a good ecologically-conscious prank that calls the principles of our campaign-finance system into question!

Rico says nice trick...
