I just told you, he never remarks or updates publically on Trump’s character.
This means one of two things: (a) he’s on board with it, or (b) he’s not, but runs interference for it anyways.
It is not enough to support Trump unconditionally (which a lot of Trump supporters do *) to be a shill, you also need a megaphone. Supporting Trump unconditionally, but without a megaphone, merely makes one an idiot.
(*) Incidentally, I think something like 70% of polled Trump supporters said they think Trump should continue to lead even if we find out Russia helped get him elected.
The issue here isn’t that he’s a Trump supporter, the issue is he does not update on some aspects of Trump. Not updating + megaphone = the essence of shilldom, and the antithesis of rationality.

edit: In case still not clear, here is another shill: http://thememoryhole2.org/blog/scaramucci-tweets
Safe to ignore the commentary, just look at stuff he actually said.
edit: re: “no obvious payoff in sight for shilling”, he’s now gone. Food for thought for other shills.
