Some Attendees At Donald Trump's Autoworkers Speech Were Total Frauds: Report
The crowd included people exposed by a local newspaper for carrying misleading signs.
Some attendees at Donald Trump’s speech about the autoworkers’ strike Wednesday apparently were shills carrying signs falsely identifying them as union members, the Detroit News reported.
One person held a sign that said “union members for Trump,” but admitted to the newspaper she was not a union member. Another carried a placard with the words “auto workers for Trump” and confessed he was not an auto worker when the outlet requested an interview. Neither identified themselves.

The affiliations of the guests receiving his message came into question. The business, Drake Enterprises in suburban Detroit, employs about 150 people who are not represented by the UAW, the newspaper noted. And there were an estimated 400 to 500 in attendance.
You're viewing a single thread.
About 500 people were in attendance for around 2 hours. Trump reportedly pays $9 an hour for people to attend his rallies, that means he (or, more accurately, his campaign) could pay $9,000 to fill that room and make it look like UAW members support Trump. Very low price for a campaign to cover.
You know those actors that go to Trump rally’s really underestimate the value they are providing to Trump. Perhaps if they organized and bargained collectively they could get higher wages and or benefits.

Pretty sure he went to one of the few non union plants to do this too...
If he'd have tried it in a union shop, they'd likely have shown up to yell shit at him.
No, these are those crisis actors that republicans are always complaining about. Everyone on the left was like, “what the fuck are you talking about,” because they came up with the idea.
They've always been doing this shit and they just think everyone else is, too. That's how we got W. See: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooks_Brothers_riot
500 paid employees. Just 1 fraud though.
They'd better demand to be paid in advance...
