So they are to be dressed just like Macho Camacho? Complete with gold chains?

Show up wearing Taylor Swift t-shirts underneath your regular pseudo-patriotic clothing then change before the cameras come on.

I would really love for there to be no one there

I hope they aren't counting on actually being paid . . .

Is this why he thinks everyone protesting is a paid actor? ‘Cause that’s how HE gets people to show up??

Most likely fake: https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-military-parade-fake-ad-seat-fillers-2084415 But then again, do you think any MAGA might even be capable of firing up one brain cell to question it? Nah... Its gonna be funny all these unexpected people showing up...
scottEkarate
Hate to be "that guy" but who knows who put this add up. Could've just been somebody making a fake post to make maga look idiotic. Not like they need help or anything.

Snopes contacted Fight Fight Fight LLC. The LLC said its fake.

I would go if they paid upfront, and covered my airfare and accommodations; I would then wait for the right moment, and moon everybody.

Send in the Swifties, they made him sad before with empty seats

So why not just do a mass apply and then not show up? Like those tiktok kids did

Congress needs seat fillers !!!

A Craigslist ad hiring paid protestors is equivalently believable to a Craigslist ad hiring seat fillers for Trump's Parade. Don't fall for blatantly false information the same as the other peoe.

skincancerisfun
Hard to separate incompetence from propaganda tho. If I was working in the governments office (because they needed people, and had fired all the trained workers), and somebody screamed at me to find a bunch of people to fill the seats, I might just list an ad on craigslist (because I have no better idea on how you'd hire people)
MrsHowVeryDareYou
This has to be trolling - I feel like if it was serious, they wouldn’t give that much dead giveaway info in the post. Although, no one in that administration seems to have any experience in any of their jobs, so who knows…
dbox
Probably trolls. https://www.distractify.com/p/seat-fillers-for-trump-military-parade
Larktonguesinadicecup
How else are they getting the people?
MrsHowVeryDareYou
I mean, there’s an embarrassingly big chunk of the country who voted for him, and half the politicians in that town are members of the cult (voluntarily or not).
Ads like this may exist, they just wouldn’t be *this* obvious and ripe for ridicule.
DidItForScience
Anyone could have made that post. $1,000 in crypto as a seat filler sounds like BS.
EternallyIgnorant
True although who cares how much you offer if you dont plan to pay?
DidItForScience
Lots of lawsuits related reasons and the fact that this alleged job posting will soon be all over the Internet.
EternallyIgnorant
Google the number of lawsuits trump is involved with and report back here lol.
DidItForScience
You wouldn't be suing Trump, you'd be suing T-Mellon Events, the FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT LLC paying for it and whoever you came in contact with when accepting the job, getting your passes and signing the paperwork. A shit ton of photos and video will be taken along the way as well. And whatever communications that happen in order to tell you at least how to get there. IF this is somehow all done anonymously, people will jump at the chance to make whoever planned it look bad, then they get sued.

"It's a troll" Given the level of stupid present in the current administration, you can understand why there's some uncertainty...
pgdave
oh absolutely, it's why I wanted to check the actual image before saying something.
Autittuderp
Says they'll pay $1000 in crypto 🤣 Suuuuure they will.
Now, protesters need to go, carry in signs under their clothes, throw their hats at the speakers and heckle like fuck.
SugarSmack
Or $2,000 in magic beans.
Hypothesist
paid from FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT LLC. AKA Trump is paying for this as a private individual not acting as president

Probably not the first time he had to pay people to come to his birthday party

Send this to media outlets. As many as you can.

Already done. I caught this brand new and sent it to every reporter and resistance group under the sun.
Lethous
Ive been blasting it on x whenever people post that Craigslist ad looking for rioters, and they go "the left is paying rioters" that it's far more likely the right and maga is paying people to riot and burn shit to make the real protests look bad. Classic false flag/Ghorman plaza shit. 1, Craigslist is for boomers. 2, Trump got called a pedo by musk last week. 3, maga has for more to gain from violence in la than dems do. All this is to expand executive authority, and change media coverage to LA

Like the troops in Los Angeles.

The only people Trump makes sure gets paid are the women he sleeps with so they will be quiet. Even then, he is so cheap he won't pay out of his own pocket but try to hide it as a legal expense.

Fight Fight Fight LLC is a company linked to President Trump and his $TRUMP memecoin, raising concerns about potential government ethics violations, foreign influence, and federal law violations.

Additionally, the company is connected to the $TRUMP memecoin, with concerns about its financial transactions

Is this serious or did someone make a fake/troll craigslist post? If this is real, that is hilarious.
taco81
This isn’t the first nor the second time they have posted for fillers. They do it all of the time.
4etherling
Its fake. Fight fight fight LLC $1000 in crypto. It's trolling the administration. They do not want minority representation in any capacity.
MeowWoof
A Google for t Mellon events shows nothing but this and Timothy Mellon was a huge Trump donor. Fake
vmos
if it's fake, it's very plausible given how certain people feel about all the empty seats at their previous events
Toodamagedtocare
It was on Facebook too, a friend of mine sent it to me 🙄🤷♀️

Obviously fake.

Yeap. I recall posts like this popping up a few years ago. I feel like it mentioned Soros because the right wing folks are obsessed with him.
ImgurIsOutOfUsernames
Yes, yes, "both sides" are just as bad as each other, right? Tell you don't know shit about the social and political state of the country without telling me.

That wasn't my argument or stance. Thanks for making assumptions. Very helpful.

It happens regardless of who is in office. Im not saying each party is responsible.
ROGUEdenied
inept mental conscience
d3jake
And yet you're the one who can't handle Capitalization and punctuation.
The post I'm vaguely recalling was from some right wing nut, claiming Soros was behind the posting.
ROGUEdenied
This is not ENGLISH class. If you comment on someone's punctuation and capitalization on a message board. Your comment will ALWAYS come off as condescending, and you will lose all dignity and value with whatever idea(s) you are trying to express. Good luck with your correcting of everyone's the grammar on Imgur. I look forward to my final grade.
d3jake
I wasn't correcting everyone's grammar, so thanks for that straw man. I do like that you're not on any higher moral ground than I considering you're opening statement being an insult. Don't throw stones, etc., etc.

It's gotta be fake, but hilarious. Here's the rest of it that convinced me of its falsity:

It was the "fast food and soda" part for me. Just too on the nose to be real. If its real... we really are living in an onion article
CanisMaximus
It's a real CL post. But I doubt it's legitimate.
ImgurIsOutOfUsernames
What part of that is the red flag? Looks par for the course to me.
pinephoenix
It’s fake. The image is of a Russian demonstration, clearly they are being tongue in cheek. Although I’m sure they are stuffing seats, this isn’t the proof. We have to do our job of vetting. Don’t get complacent.
kittyfajitas
I keep forgetting there is no upper limit on his level of ridiculous. Like we all know he does this but this seemed almost *too* on brand to actually be real.
pinephoenix
It’s not real. Reverse search the image. Elegant trolling.
