7. Versus Donald Trump
The more money George Soros donated to the Democrat, the more obvious that he opposes candidates from the Republican Party. So, it says a lot about what he thinks of the current US president, Donald Trump.
Soros was among many people who believed that Trump would not win the election. So he made trading moves against his victory. Then, when Trump came out victorious, Soros ended up losing around $1 billion.
As the master of financial market, Soros believes that Trump is preparing for a trade war. He has been so vocal about his dislike towards the US President. He even described him as a con man.
Because of these facts, it is not impossible to think that Soros would continue funding pro-Democrat groups, which translates as anti-Trump movement. So when the crowd marched down the street, including those riots in Berkeley, many thought Soros was behind it.
News about him funding these protests surfaced. Although he denied it, and so did the protesters, accusations remain.
