President Donald Trump suggested his administration may pursue a racketeering investigation against George Soros or his family, accusing the Democratic megadonor of funding protests.

Protesters “get paid for their profession from Soros and other people,” Trump said in a Fox News interview, recalling protesters who peacefully confronted him at a Washington restaurant this week. “And we’re going to look into Soros, because I think it’s a RICO case against him and other people. Because this is more than like protests. This is real agitation.”
