Political fundraising is preying on the elderly and wiping out their savings

I wonder how much land in the San Fernando Valley they own.

In September, I gave money to Harris, my US senator up for reelection, my US Congressional representative, my state representative, and Allred in Texas, Kunce in Missouri and Brown in Ohio.

Since then, I've been inundated with texts and emails to give more, more, more money from all of these clowns. I get at least 100 per day. Why aren't you responding? This is the 11th time we've contacted you. You will rot in hell unless you give more money.

It's completely obnoxious and totally out of hand.

FUCK YOU, assholes. If you spent as much time campaigning as you do begging for money, you wouldn't be behind in the polls.

I donated to Biden's campaign in 2020. Ever since, during election cycles, I am slammed with political texts, most of them asking for money. One day last week, I received six texts for candidates less than two hours. At which point I replied STOP to every political text message I've received in the past month. And now my phone is much quieter.

I’ve been inundated with texts too after having already donated. I’ve been blocking the numbers for the past month as the requests to stop didn’t always work. If I want to donate, I know where to find the right organization online.

Never give politicians money. It just encourages them.
