Would they actually do this?

[coti]

1. Can be applied toward community service- using any criminal record against them

And how is a Trump rally community service, exactly???

Some good liberal people should respond, try to get a position in the TV frame and make a good show of it.

[FreeState]

2. If its real they are cheap

8. Apply in blackface ?

I think this is an instance it would have a political meaning. imho. It would be a slam at them.

[Jim__]

3. I know you don't really have to ask.

[liberalhistorian]

4. I think this is absolutely real and yes, they

would absolutely do this! They have no shame and no scruples whatsoever, put NOTHING past them. Someone needs to get this to the attention of the media and let's hope they get no response from "enthusiastic minority actors".

***NOTE*** anybody can anonymously place an ad on Craigslist. Odds of this being a legit gig are 50/50

[HipChick]

23. Except everything with Trump campaign is smoke and mirrors..

[nolabear]

12. I went and looked it up myself. Damned if it ain't there.

Under “gigs.”

[Flaleftist]

13. Anyone can make a Craigslist ad.

What we need is for someone to actually go through and document with recordings if this is really happened.

I suspect the campaign is using some paid attendants, but I don't think Pascale would use Craigslist to get them.

[bronxiteforever]

14. Kick and recommend for visibility.

This needs maximum visibility.

[nolabear]

15. Now I check further that contact email looks totally bogus.

Troll level ninja if so.

[IronLionZion]

16. They don't tell you about the risk of injury or death

as minorities often get beat up by deplorable supporters. And no mention of the COVID waiver

[LeftInTX]

17. Craigslist link isn't working

Holding ad for review

[KPN]

18. You have to ask? nt

[TlalocW]

19. Unfortunately

It could be trolls. There's no way of knowing especially since the ad is down now.

20. From George Conway - and isn't this how Trump's campaign got started?

[not fooled]

25. Yeah

The report notes that while the Trump campaign denied knowing about hired actors, it did pay $12,000 to a contractor (Gotham) four months after the event took place. The report also notes that Gotham hired Extra Mile Casting as a subcontractor “to provide administrative support at Trump’s announcement.”

Both the campaign and Gotham gave vague descriptions of the services provided by Extra Mile, but the FEC report notes those services included providing “at least some” of the rally attendees:

It is not uncommon for campaigns to hire companies or Casting agencies like Extra Mile to generate a crowd at an event. In this matter, the available information indicates that the Committee retained Gotham as an event consultant, and Gotham, in turn, subcontracted with Extra Mile to provide extra administrative support at Trump’s announcement, including the provision of at least some of the rally crowd.

The FEC, citing the “modest amount” of money at play, declined to prosecute the Trump campaign on accusations of campaign-finance violations.

The practice of “astroturfing” or hiring actors to give a political candidate or movement the appearance of having popular support isn’t unheard of. As the Atlantic reported in 2015, “These days, if a candidate or protest organizer is short on numbers, he or she can simply pick up the phone and call a company like Crowds on Demand, a Los Angeles-based company that provides rental crowds for campaign rallies and protests.”

Of course, red don now has many authentic idiots supporting him.

[Rhiannon12866]

27. And we know what happens to dissenters:

[Beartracks]

21. It's why Republicans always claim liberal protesters are "paid actors" -- because...

... that is something conservative organizations actually do themselves.

In almost every situation, if a Republican accuses Democrats of something, it is something the Republican is already guilty of doing. Or at the very least, is something the Republican WOULD do, given the opportunity.

[tulipsandroses]

22. Even if its not real. I don't doubt that Trump pays some of those Blacks for Trum people to be there

There is no bottom for these people

[Marcuse]

24. Is he paying union scale in advance to his crisis actors?

[Midnight Writer]

28. Not real. The real Trump would have promised them $500, and then stiffed them after the event.

[PatrickforO]

29. So...force people on the hook for community service to

put their lives in danger by attending a Trump rally?

Wow.
