A gay OnlyFans content creator, approached by a left-wing agency to make an anti-Donald Trump video for a Democrat super PAC, said he refuses to “whore out” his values or “sell out for Kamala Harris.”
Michael Doherty, a 22-year-old social media influencer who posts explicit content on his OnlyFans page and LGBT-related posts on Instagram, is not the typical Trump fan. “I’m conservative-leaning. I even wear American flag underwear and shoot guns on my OnlyFans,” the Long Island native told the New York Post.

Despite his right-wing views, Doherty was solicited by influencer marketing firm Palette MGMT, on behalf of Future Forward, the largest Democrat super PAC. “Hi Michael, I hope you’re doing well! I’m reaching out on behalf of one of Palette’s partners with an exciting paid offer to create and post anti-Trump content on TikTok,” senior marketing coordinator Fernanda Oliveira Araujo wrote in a July 26 message.
She offered $1,500 for a man-on-the-street-style TikTok video to make Trump look like a bigot. Future Forward has reportedly received $150 million in pledges from donors after President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the presidential race, aiming to spend it on the upcoming election.
One suggested idea was for Doherty to ask voters if provided quotes were from “Trump or my racist uncle at Thanksgiving.” The marketer added that the video “could not show any form of support for Donald Trump and his allies” or show any of Trump’s “funny” moments “without providing context.”
“The new generation of 18 to 24-year-old American voters have forgotten what a Trump presidency looks like. In what is shaping up to be a competitive election year, we want to remind voters of the reality of Trump as president,” Palette stated.
Doherty told the Post he was shocked by the request. “For one, I can’t believe the ‘when-we-go-low-they-go-high’ liberals would pay people to talk trash about Trump… Secondly, I can’t believe this agency would be so dumb as to not Google me.”
“Just because I do OnlyFans, doesn’t mean I whore out my values. I would never sell out for Kamala Harris,” he added.
