Americans raised $70k for woman fired after giving the middle finger to Donald Trump

50year old Juli Briskman, got fired after sticking a middle finger up at Donald Trump's motorcade, last month. 

It has now been reported that over $70,000 in donations have poured into a crowdfunding site set up for the mother of two. More than 3,000 donations — from $5 to $250 — have rolled in since November 6. 

Briskman's raised middle finger was caught by news photographers as Trump's motorcade passed her on October 28 as he left Trump National Golf Course in Sterling, Virginia. The image immediately went viral. 

Three days later, the 50-year-old marketing executive was fired by her company, government contractor Akima. "Thank you, Juli Briskman," wrote Rob Mello, who set up the GoFundMe account, calling her "an inspiration to us all."
