On June 16, 2015, Trump announced he was running for the highest office. As first detailed in The Hollywood Reporter, the campaign hired actors to cheer him on. That drew public attention, although it was later overshadowed by his harsh pronouncement of Mexicans as "rapists." At the time, Trump's then campaign manager Corey Lewandowski denied paying anyone to attend the event and said that he had never heard of Extra Mile or Gotham Government Relations, the two companies that THR reported were involved in putting out a casting call for people to attend the event.

BIGUN 1,488 #4 January 20, 2017 Quote Two top Democratic strategists have exited the presidential campaign after explosive undercover videos showed them discussing voter fraud and their roles in planting paid agitators at campaign events for Republican candidate Donald Trump. Robert Creamer, founder of Democracy Advocates and the husband of Rep. Janice D. Schakowsky, Illinois Democrat, stepped down from the campaign Tuesday, a day after Scott Foval was fired from his post as national field director of Americans United for Change. Mr. Trump, who has long complained of a “rigged” election system, said at a Tuesday rally in Colorado that the video released by the conservative group Project Veritas Action confirmed his suspicions of Democrat-sponsored political chicanery. “The protesters are paid a lot of money by the [Democratic National Committee], and they kept saying, ‘I wonder why those people are here, because they never seem to have much on their mind other than stand up and protest,’” Mr. Trump told a crowd in Colorado Springs. “And yesterday it came out, but it was barely covered by the media. But it’s all over the internet. They were busted.” SOURCE: http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/18/undercover-video-shows-democrats-saying-they-hire-/ I think that we can spend the next four years playing the kid's game of, "He did it; no, she did it...." When they both need a spanking. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #5 January 20, 2017 I think if you want to get into the dirty tricks section of the campaign, yeah, a bit by each. However, that's far, far different than lying to the Federal Election Committee and getting away with it now that the person who did it is now in office, I think you should understand that's a far different situation. It speaks heavily toward coercion and corruption.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
