Wonder how many of those "actors" actually got paid? This is tRump we're talking about! 😲

@spjennifer Good point. Either none of them got paid, or they all did with money Trump stole from his "foundation" that New York State later shut down for fraud.

@windinhishair I suspect that since it was his campaign that supposedly paid for it that they probably did get paid, if it was him personally they would have been SOL.
