People were *offered* millions of dollars, but the joke will be on them when they fail to pay. I hope these people like their clown makeup.

Anyway, I guess there won’t be a second debate, because it’s “too late”.

Yeah it's wild to me that people are accepting that offer when it's open knowledge that Trump still has unpaid bills from the 2020 campaign. Not gonna feel bad at all for them when they start whining about it after the election is over and they embarrassed themselves for nothing

Not familiar with the American paid campaign system at all, but how do we know they didn't get paid upfront? afaik influencers who regularly get sponsored receive at least a partial payment first and the rest right after their post/endorsement. I'm not sure why they would sign a contract without any upfront deposit 🤔

I saw the Faze guys (or what's left of them) posted up with Trump too.
Isn't their company failing? All one influencers experiencing a flop era are jumping on the Trump Train for a quick buck.

yep, faze put themselves on nasdaq completely overestimating their worth and then went public with a SPAC merger, but both 2022 and 2023 they were reporting losses in the millions (53mil loss in 2022 alone). esports execs are a special brand of idiots consistently overestimating the worth/potential of the scenes and then having it all blow up in their face spectacularly time and time again. and good riddance tbh greedy ass people, just sucks for the pro players who are sold empty promises. faze has been staying afloat and getting some semblance of revenue through brand deals/sponsorships and merch only. their content and esports teams barely makes any worthwhile revenue. for 2023 they were losing $224,000 PER MONTH on valorant esports alone lol.

The GOP has no money, it's all going to Trump's legal fees. Which is good because that means less for Republican downballot races

Meanwhile, Trump can't pay locations properly. SO...

[britneyjeanspea]

My hometown is trumpville and has a lawsuit against him because he still hasn’t paid hundreds of thousands for the rally there in 2016

[surfermedley]

I believe it 100% and I don’t think it’s the Republican Party paying or even Trump

[djbbgoose]

who then?

[ahegao]

russia, perhaps

[ionadelfina]

Heritage foundation maybe? But are they meaningfully separate from the GOP?
