For those wondering why Trump rallies tend to devolve to pugilistic matches, where even belligerent 15-year-old protesting (or perhaps “provocative” is a better word) girls end up getting pepper sprayed much to the media’s fascination, the answer is Craig’s List ads such as the one below, in which allegedly “I’m feelin’ the Bern“-affiliated organizers provide paid positions for protesters at Trump rallies, and which provide not only shuttle buses, parking, and signs (as well as time cards) but also hand out $15/hour (as a “part-time employment”) for said protest activity “due to the economic inequality.”

So I am wondering if they have payroll taxes withheld? Or if they have to present any identification showing that they are legal citizens? I suppose at this point we can only stick a fork in it and ask “What difference does it make”?
Or we can stand up and fight. Because that is what real Americans do.
