“I’ve created tens of thousands of jobs and a great company,” Trump says, which have also included the roles of supporters. On the day of his presidential announcement, the Trump campaign offered actors $50 for a simple job - cheering him on.
It didn’t take long for Trump to start holding massive rallies with attendance in the thousands. Yet, the campaign may still have to pay a few supporters due to Trump’s terrible poll numbers with women and minorities. And that appears to be what they’re doing already.
“You got some sort of notice that there was a job available from Donald Trump’s camp?” Cenk Uygur, host of "The Young Turks” asked comedian, model and activist Aida Rodriguez. And she had.
"They were looking for a Latina who spoke correct English, non-accented to play the part of a Trump supporter," Rodriguez began. "And someone sent that to me… [actually] two people sent it. Someone sent it as a joke… and then someone actually sent to me to ask if I would be interested in coming in for the audition and I just thought it was hilarious," she told Uygur.
"So what was the part for?" Uygur asked.
Turns out, it wasn't just to cheer Trump on this time....
