Melanin? That gives you dark skin. Heavens to whitebread!

there's no way this can't be totally legit. There's also no way just about anyone could have posted this.

"The ad also said participants would receive a flat fee of $1,000 paid in cryptocurrency, which could be poking fun at Trump's crypto-related ventures.

Fight Fight Fight LLC, the company listed in the ad as providing payment to seat fillers, administers Trump's meme coin. A customer support representative for the meme coin's website, gettrumpmemes.com, told Snopes via an emailed statement: "It's fake, we have nothing to do with it."
