People Are Paid to Attend Trump’s Las Vegas Rally

A Craigslist ad is recruiting people to attend Trump’s rally in Las Vegas for branding and marketing purposes.

Here is the text of the ad:

I’m looking for someone to attend the Trump rally on Sunday. It would be a marketing promo so we ask that you wear a branded shirt and also carry a sign. Bonus pay ($50) if you land on air!

Pick up shirts/signs + attend event estimated at a total of 3-4 hours of work. $75 fixed payment + $50 potential bonus.

We ask that you take photos of the event for confirmation and marketing purposes.

There is no evidence that the Trump campaign plans to hire attendees for the rally, even though Trump has used that practice for his events in the past. This appears to be a company trying to promote its product and get it on camera at the Trump rally.

Trump also paid people to attend his 2015 campaign launch:

However, the ad does show that not everything is as it seems during campaign rallies and events. For example, a large portion of Trump’s rally crowd consists of a hardcore group of supporters who attend all his rallies and follow him around the country like MAGA deadheads.

Several regulars make money at these events by selling Trump merchandise and products. There is a whole cottage industry of people making their money from Trump’s campaign events. If Trump ever finds out about this, he will likely push for a reduction in sales.

When Trump inevitably brags about and blows up the Nevada crowd, remember that some of these people were paid to be there.
