David Clarke: Fla. students' gun control push has 'George Soros' fingerprints all over it'

Former Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke Jr. insinuated Wednesday that student survivors of the Parkland, Fla., school shooting were being manipulated by Democratic billionaire George Soros to organize for gun control.

In a tweet, the former Wisconsin sheriff wrote that media appearances and an activism campaign from students of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School against gun violence had "George Soros' fingerprints all over it."




Seventeen people were killed at the Parkland high school last week when a gunman attacked with an AR-15-style rifle. In the days following, students of the school have organized a national campaign aimed at reducing gun violence.

Clarke, who resigned as sheriff last year amid speculation he would join the Trump administration, now serves as senior adviser and spokesman for the pro-Trump America First Action PAC. He is scheduled to speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) later this week.

And what took you so long? The crazy train conspiracy theorists passed the Soros station a few days ago.

Surprising to me that he's still walking around, a free man. His criminal negligence in his previous job should have earned him at least three to five in the Graybar Hotel. But, it's Wisconsin.
