Well, "The Donald" has made it official. A couple of days ago, Donald Trump announced that he is a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination. He made the announcement before a sizable and seemingly enthusiastic crowd. But it was an illusion, paid for by Trump himself.
It turns out that many of those in the crowd were actors -- paid $50 each for their appearance at the announcement. Trump, evidently afraid of a poor turnout for his big moment, hired Extra Mile Casting to make sure the crowd was sizable -- and last week, the casting firm sent out a call to its list of "extras".
Frankly, I doubt Trump is the only Republican using paid actors to beef up their crowds.

Here is my friend Brian McLaughlin's reaction to Trump's big announcement:
Ah, The Donald! Wonderful fellow he is. Claims that he will be able to save the country if we let him lead us by electing him to The Presidency of The United States of America. He says that he will be the utmost best “jobs president” our country has ever seen by bringing business' home from China and Japan along with many other nations to create jobs here at home. Of course this is while he has his own clothing line being manufactured in China and Bangladesh.
Mr. Trump of course must be the perfect man to lead our economy as well. He does seem to have a knack at creating companies which of course will create more jobs. Four of those times, The Donald has been able to declare bankruptcy and escape with little to no negative effect on his personal bank account. The man seems to be extremely good at running a duck and run game plan when that strategy is needed.
Speaking of that personal bank account though, he was not so successful at guarding it from Ivana and Marla. Two wives that learned all about the best of Mr. Trump, and of course the worst as well. He's on his third wife now and one can only wonder when she will be given the royal treatment that the other two have received. Being cheated on with other women while married has spoke volumes about his loyalty and character.
I absolutely love his position on immigration. He just recently in his announcement told the nation that immigration is ruining our country and is the death knell (my words) of the middle class. Seems that his grandparent immigrated and that his mother was from Scotland. That old saying, it takes one to know one, I guess he's got a right to talk about immigration as he truly is a product of it. By the way, has anybody seen his long form birth certificate? They say it was Queens, New York but I don't know it could have actually been Queensland, Australia. This is something that really needs to be looked into if he is going to be considered for the presidency.
Yes, the man knows how to make money while driving a business into the ground. He knows the reason for our floundering economy while doing business overseas. He knows all about women, their needs and place in society as his multiple marriages can attest to. Oh and one other thing, he knows how to switch political parties when the wind changes direction.
Just one more loon not worth voting for.
