Guard Soldiers Deployed in Trump's LA Crackdown Aren't Getting Paid Yet
This is not satire :-)
The image I posted has NOTHING to do with the military.com article. The military.com article relates to national guard troops being dispatched to LA and not being paid. The image I posted is a call for actors to be paid stand ins/seat fillers at the trump parade.
After some digging, I actually found the craigs list posting exists: https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/tlg/d/washington-seat-fillers-needed-june/7857143452.html
However, no way to know if the CL posting leads to real jobs or if it's just a joke.
However, the fact that Trump never pays his debts is not satire. That is correct.
I know. It's just that unlike the satire post, which says they pay, the 'real' jobs don't get paid. Just wanted to joke around, but probably I'm mistaken or it was a dumb idea (sorry, if so).
My bad. I saw this image and assumed it was satire. I did find a real CL gig post, but have no way to determine if it's a real job posting or if it was put up as satire. The joke about Trump never paying his debts went over my head, and in that case it is not satire. I'm sorry I misunderstood.
No problem. Have a great time.
