Maybe he needs an armed apparatchik to motivate them...

and it's unreal

Just show up at a Trump Rally, get your check, sit behind Trump, and stare into the camera. When they remove you, just go peacefully, but force them to remove you on camera.

People literally standing there with blank expressions on their faces, looking bored, then someone walks in, whispers to them, the bored person walks away and the new person with a huge smile on their face takes their place.

...a few moments of confusion, and then once she settled in and knew she was on camera, BLAM...a Crest Toothpaste-worthy smile for no reason at all, not in reaction to anything that was said, simply the realization that the camera was there and she was "on."

It just couldn’t be worth it to show even fake support for this vile cretin.

captured two Craigslist ads asking for Trumpy rally workers. They were getting paid around 30-40 bucks an hour to either be enthusiastic supporters or "supervisors".

Two come up, tell one or two others they can take a break, you are being relieved. Always remember the Idiot is a con man and a grifter. Throw in narcissist and you have a malignant, malevolent creature. No way he would speak to an empty room. They are either paid or bussed in. Sadly, some are true believers.

For 30-40 bucks an hour, Trumpy's paid minions need to put on a good show.

It's all about the Potemkin Presidency.

Exactly.

His numbers but not confirmed. Pan the audience and the stadium so we can see the empty seats.

The crowd numbers in Texas when he goes down there for Cruz will be interesting.
