A professional right-wing troll is trying to lure people to join his protest against the Democratic National Committee in October and he’s promising $15 to attendees.
Jack Burkman, a lawyer and conservative commentator who has wrongly billed himself as “one of Washington's most prominent” lobbyists, posted a Craigslist ad this month that reads: “attend a 45 minute political rally, Oct 24, 11:30am make $15, and $20 if you bring a friend.”
A source who asked not to be named said they messaged the cell phone number connected to the ad and quickly determined that the person on the other end of the conversation was Burkman. The source sent The Daily Beast screenshots of their brief conversation. "we I meet rite near the capitol," [sic] Burkman texted. "I wil pay u that day wear anything u want 5 buck more for every friend u bring."
When the respondent asked "do I need any signs," Burkman replied, “yes pls make a sign to hold up that says shame on dnc."
The source noted that the experience of texting with Burkman was like texting with a “teenage girl.”
