Kamala offered me $$$ to endorse her. That’s why you’re seeing all these endorsements. They’re paid ads. pic.twitter.com/niyPqTm0et

Social media influencers and celebrities get PAID to do what they do. It seems natural that a political campaign would pay just like any other customer a social media person has.
Harnessing paid social media influencers seems like a no brainer. Am I missing something?
They are legally obligated to disclose if they are being paid to promote a product.LOYAL AG said:JDL 96 said:

I'm probably ok with the payments but she said she's seen multiple influencers that aren't disclosing that it's a paid advertisement. Not sure the legality of whether or not they disclose but it's disingenuous not to do so. If I were following someone and they endorsed either candidate without telling me they were paid I'd assume they were and stop following them. Heck I recently stopped watching Zeihan's daily blurb on YouTube because it became apparent he was schilling for the left. His analysis of geopolitical events is pretty compelling but he showed me I can't trust him so i just stopped watching.

There have been at least a handful post on this board throughout this campaign cycle. Offered money to endorse and turned it down.

Having seen a little bit behind the scenes of social media strategy, undisclosed paid posts by people with large followings, and even medium followings, are really common.

What I want to know is, how many dead celebrities got paid to endorse her?

10M for Beyonce?? Wow! How much do you think she paid Taylor Swift? How about Lady Gaga? Or Harrison Ford? He's never made a political endorsement before, so it must have been a huge amount to get him to film a spot for her. And man, imagine how much she must be paying all those Republicans that used to work for trump!
If all these endorsements are so easy to buy, I wonder why trump didn't do it first? At least pay the people that used to work in his administration, right? Do you think trump just didn't have the money or does he not have smart advisors around him to tell him that endorsements can be purchased so easily?
Maybe you'll believe the WaPo when they tell you...agjacent said:

It is hard to track exactly how much campaigns and super PACs are spending on creators because they often distribute funds to large agencies that work with the creators, or they funnel payment through subcontracts that are not visible in federal election filings.
Since March 2023, according to a Washington Post analysis of public campaign expenditures, the Democratic National Committee and Harris campaign have paid nearly $4 million to Village Marketing Agency, which says it has also developed influencer marketing campaigns for Netflix, SoulCycle and Anheuser-Busch.
The Harris campaign also paid the social media firms Good Influence and People First Marketing more than $500,000 as of September. The creators interviewed by The Post said they had not received payments from the Harris campaign or Democratic National Committee, but some did receive payments from PACs and social welfare organizations affiliated with liberal causes. Some said they spent thousands of dollars of their own money to attend the convention because they saw it as an opportunity to expand their followings, make business connections and participate in a historic moment.
The Trump campaign has been leveraging an established ecosystem of conservative influencers such as Benny Johnson, Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro, who have long promoted Republican candidates and policies online. The Trump campaign does not directly pay influencers for content, said a person familiar with strategy, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to candidly discuss the campaign. It does provide access to rallies and gives creators swag-like hats.

Other than this lady, are there any other sources mentioning a "pay to endorse" transaction? I just haven't found it yet.
there's been a ton of them. i'll have to sift through likes or reposts on one of my X accounts over the past three months, but there are a lot. it's part of the strategy to fool the ignorant masses into voting ourselves into more of the destructive marxist regime.Gump 02 said:
