Hollywood Reporter: Donald Trump Campaign Paid Actors $50 To Cheer On His Announcement

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) The Hollywood Reporter says Donald Trump’s campaign paid actors $50 to cheer at his presidential announcement press conference Tuesday.

The casting notice, obtained by the Reporter, asked actors to wear T-shirts and hold signs for a “big announcement.”

The pay was listed as $50 for fewer than three hours of work.

According to the email, Extra Mile Casting (in partnership with Gotham Government Relations and Communications, a New York-Based political consulting group that has worked with Trump in the past) was looking for actors “to help cheer him.”
