guys, I posted the wrong pic. I meant to click on this one, which I thought was a clever parody of the known craigslist rally ads of the past.

(62,444 posts)It would be much more interesting for someone to respond to the ad and document receiving the $100, but there's a reason why that NEVER happens with these "here's a craigslist ad paying people to show up" thing that gets re-posted over and over like Groundhog Day.
They did pay actors for the initial campaign announcement in NY, but that wasn't done through Craigslist.
Or is the idea here that we're supposed to believe everything on Twitter, just because it is anti-Trump.

(642 posts)it really shouldn't matter what side it is coming from. There is too much BS being put forth these days.
Surely, there is a enough factual information to damn the orange dotard and his deplorable minions that we don't have to make things up or propagate the latest ridiculous fact-free meme.
...We need to stop pinning our hopes on bullshit stories like this and acknowledge the fact that 63,000,000 people actually voted for this lunatic and a whole lot of them are probably going to do it again.
Let's focus instead on selecting the candidate on our side who stands the best possible chance of un-seating this maniac...

(16,858 posts)The map included there is downtown Nashville. The twitter link leads to an obvious trolling post asking for people to show up in Orlando in "full Nazi regalia"

(16,858 posts)I see where it says University of Tennessee but that map is Nashville. 31 cuts right through the middle of the city and it shows the bicentennial

Edit to add...you can also see 1st Tn park which is near the mall

They truly are psychological drug addicts....... ........
Why else would one man drive all the way from Phoenix and then stand in line in the heat and rain all day?......
This is not normal.
