Trump paid actors to sit through his press conference and cheer...

Trump paid to install a fake audience at his first press conference that would cheer at everything he says. The folders on the table are empty...

This man is clearly deeply insecure and a liar who is unfit to lead America.

I find this kind of thing odd. I would imagine that if you have any sort of political conviction that you wouldn't take the money and cheer for Trump if you didn't support him anyway in which case you're doing something you might have wanted to do anyway but were planning or doing something else or nothing at all yet somehow a mere 50 bucks entices you to change your mind and take time out of your day to do this instead.

Kind of weird he felt the need to do that given his very large and enthusiastic band of followers he had at his rallies during his campaign.

Lol! Hilarious and sad whenever politicians pay people to go do anything like this. Support them, go hassle opponents at their rallies, etc. Pathetic to have folks do that.

Not cool Trump.

Dont forget about Trump's blatant attempt to deceive viewers. His team literally took stacks of blank printer paper, put them in unmarked folders and pretended they were sensitive business contracts. This sounds like something a school child would do, not the leader of America.

Extras do exactly that, they go to a given set/location, do usually one or two simple acts, walking, pretend conversations, cheering etc. and get paid a small flat rate for the day. Though I think $50.00 is rather low for a day's worth of extra-work.

Wonder if he's going to do this for his inauguration, to boost numbers due to his impossibly fragile ego.

Like I said, I do feel paying people to show up at events or to go hassle people at opponents rallies is indeed something a child would do.

No argument here bro, we are in agreement.

thats pretty sad tbh

You agree it is pathetic for the president to do so?

I agree it is indeed pathetic for a president or someone who wants to be president to do any of the things I have talked about.

100% no arguments from me.

But you also agree it's worse coming from the president, right?

When did Obama do it?

It's worse when any politician of significant power does it.

So the fact that he's the president changes nothing? Jeez, dat lowkey deflection.

The presidency is a position of significant power, so it indeed DOES change something.

I said it's worse when those in significant places of power do it, which include the presidency, among other roles in our government.

So people of significant power, like the president to give one example, are indeed worse if they do this.

I don't see the issue with this. The Democrats do this all the time.

Biggest diff is that Trump just pays better.

They'll cry deflection though. It's only not a deflection when the right people bring her up.

You ain't on the list of the right people, neither am I. We don't have the privilege. Which is weird cuz I'm white and I should have all this privilege at my feet.
