Trump is bribing poor minorities to attend his military parade



Donald Trump has spent his political career insisting — without a shred of evidence — that his opponents are paying people to attend rallies, march in protests and vote


Which, of course, is rich coming from the guy who paid actors to attend the announcement of his presidential campaign in 2015, and whose billionaire fundraiser, Elon Musk, was sued for allegedly violating election laws by paying voters during the recent presidential campaign.




So, it makes sense that a jokester who would want to spoof the president would use the same gimmick.



Trump, allegedly fearful that attendance will be weak at his birthday-party military parade on Saturday in Washington, D.C., is offering to pay “seat fillers,” according to a Craigslist ad — which people are pretty sure isn’t legit.



Evidence that it’s likely a goof:



— The photo on the ad is a May Day Parade in red Square;



— The ad promises to pay individuals $1,000 in crypto, which could be a swipe at Trump’s meme coin scheme;



— The freelancers are encouraged to wear gold accessories, which undoubtedly is a finger-poke at Trump’s taste for golden gaudiness;



— And people of color and ethnic groups are assured of prime visibility, which is a jab at Trump’s penchant for placing Black and brown supporters in seats directly in the line of cameras during his rallies.



Here’s how the ad reads:



“T-Mellon Events is looking for seat fillers and extras to provide their time for space maximization and attendance perception for an event taking place in Washington DC on June 14th. Extras and Seat fillers will check in on the morning of June 14th at 9:00 a.m.Extras are required to wear Red, White and Blue clothing and will be provided a RED hat to wear. GOLD accessories are acceptable as well. The team will advise the extras where to stand or sit according to the line of sight from a VIP viewing platform area.Extras and Seat fillers will be paid a flat daily fee and will be provided a lunch of fast food and soda.We encourage people of color and ethnic groups to sign up for maximum perception control and these individuals will be prominently displayed on the televised broadcast and local viewing screens to be seen by the VIP platform.”



A number of Reddit users wrote that they were going to apply and, if the ad is legit, not show up.



The military parade commemorating the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary and coinciding with President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday will be a new spectacle for many Americans.



This will not be the first U.S. military parade. However, it is unusual outside of wartime, and Trump’s approach stands out compared to his predecessors.



The Army had long planned a celebration for its semi-quincentennial on June 14. Trump has wanted to preside over a grand military parade since his first presidency from 2017 to 2021. When he took office a second time, he found the ideal convergence and ratcheted the Pentagon’s plans into a full-scale military parade on his birthday.



The president, who is expected to speak in Washington as part of the affair, pitches the occasion as a way to celebrate U.S. power and service members’ sacrifice. But there are bipartisan concerns about the cost as well as concerns about whether Trump is blurring traditional understandings of what it means to be a civilian commander in chief.

You know - you might try to be less intellectually dishonest and less passive aggressive. I know you think it's cool but it's not. Here's your link that you could have found yourself:

Asking Toxic not to be intellectually dishonest and passive aggressive is like asking a trout to deal a hand of poker. The wretched cunt is what she is and cannot be rehabilitated.
 
Seriously. How fucking stupid is the fake teacher who can't click a link? She wants you to push her wheelchair to the ad. If you get that far, please push the bitch off the edge of a cliff.

Nope. no real pain, either physically or mentally, coward.
You lie and cry like the infantile pervert you are.



If it isn't pedophilia, it's bestiality you accuse others of. That is a sure sign of mental decline.
You cannot legally own a firearm. You've shown too much hate, and want to make shooting
Trump supporters a national pastime. I'll bet the FBI has you pegged as a terrorist so they are
keeping a close eye on the conversant home you're in.
Members can read your posts and mine then determine who is lies, who whines and who is perpetually angry, Arbie.

When did I ever accuse you of pedophilia, son?
Thanks for puking up the same lies and half-truths. It fits your mental state. Well, I am very conversant sooooo.....
 
LOL, I heard about that and they'll all get a free red hat :)

The trumptards are hiring seat-fillers for their tinpot dicator parade because they know it's going to be empty streets otherwise. Ironic that Republicans complain about "waste fraud and abuse" and yet trump's willing to pay actors to pretend to like him :)
Hopefully it'll be the new red hat for use in the Civil War. :thup:

Rumor sez Trump got 80M of them free from China after his new "deal" with them. :)

You asked for the craigslist post about trump's tinpot dictator boondoggle on 6/14. What you just posted has nothing to with that. My guess - your intellectual dishonesty has been called out and you're flailing about throwing crap at the wall.

Your lack of intelligence and honesty is disappointing.
@TOP, you brainless fucking cunt, we are talking about the DC parade. Not only could you not even follow the link that was given to you, but when you went "searching" yourself, you pulled up shit about LA. On a scale of five minutes ago to now, when do you think you should die and leave the rest of the world to put your smarmy stupidity behind us?
 
Seriously. How fucking stupid is the fake teacher who can't click a link? She wants you to push her wheelchair to the ad. If you get that far, please push the bitch off the edge of a cliff.
@TOP has a lot of "issues". I skip over her stuff like I do a drunk laying outside a downtown Starbucks. Sad, but there's nothing I can do.

It's another reason I support euthanasia centers. Something I'm certain Trump would get behind when he realizes how cheap a solution it is for the poor and elderly, the demented and fatties. Of course, he'd tried to make it mandatory in his camps so that could be a problem.
