FAKE?

This was taken from The Washington Post:
“Tracey from Florida”
You may have seen “Tracey from Florida,” a smiling blonde, or “AJ from Texas,” a sharply dressed gentleman, in videos from President Trump’s reelection campaign. They’re not real Trump supportersas the Associated Press reported. They’re models who were paid to film stock video footage.
“Though the 20-second videos include tiny disclaimers that say ‘actual testimonial, actor portrayal,’ they raise the question why a campaign that can fill arenas with supporters would have to buy stock footage of models,” the AP’s Bernard Condon reported. “It’s a practice that, under different circumstances, Trump himself would likely blast as ‘fake news.’
“Trump campaign officials declined repeated requests for comment on Tuesday. Political experts say that, while it’s not unusual for stock footage to find its way into ads, a presidential campaign should have been more careful.”

This is so expected from trump.  It is a classic example of how people who scream out against something (fake news) are often the ones who are practicing it. 
Sure, it has fine print explaining the testimonials, but how many people read those tiny disclaimers?  Out of the bazillion wonderful, beautiful trump supporters out there, certainly his campaign could have found two supporters willing to go on camera effusing their praise for the donald!
trump is a moron!

he's worse than a moron. I wish there was a "puke" emoji I could use for any and all pro-tRUMP postings, because just the thought of him makes me nauseous!
