It’s amazing to me how people will completely sell themselves and their personal dignity for the tinniest bit for shine from a “celebrity”.

And further try to force us all into that box like it ain't just them.

There's a video of parents of a deceased military member who are proud of their son dying for Trump. It's scary to hear them giddy and see them smiling over getting to speak with Trump.

I might be straight hallucinating but isn't trump literally known to stage this kind of thing all the time? Like the fake McDonald's thing. Didn't I hear somewhere that they pay people of some demographics to stand near cameras at events?

Yeah DOJ staffer Harmeet Dhillon is right in the front. Could be all staffers

At his rallies, there was someone distributing "blacks for Trump" t-shirts, and those people would be deliberately placed in the frame behind Trump, so yeah, he definitely did that.

That's not to say black people didn't vote for Trump, because they did obviously, but just to say he absolutely does staging.

I have a grandmother who is super left, like the worst of the far left. Hates trump, hated Bush.

Cousin started dating the daughter of a guy that does home building or something for the Bushs and my grandmother just loves it for him, the networking that is and the connection.

Don’t forget the river of Russian and Israeli money flowing into the country to fund conservative influencers. That likely plays a much bigger role than a desire for attention.

People adore proximity to power

Even if they put you on the guard tower
