How are campaigns matching 500% donations? (And Trump campaign emails)

He wants YOU to receive an Official Donald J. Trump Fine Point Marker - an exact replica of the pen he used to sign these critical Executive Orders. It should come as no surprise, but YOU are one of them, Jamie.

Congratulations, Jamie. You’re an Executive Order.

 Worse than that, he’s a Presidential Memoranda.


This is from Mike Lindell - the My Pillow guy.  Subject line: Everybody Loves President Trump

This parts feels like North Korea style propaganda:

I always say that EVERYONE loves President Trump, some just don’t know it yet. YOUR love for our President and our Nation is evident; in fact, it’s one of the reasons I’m reaching out to you now.

Since you’ve been such an important part of our movement, President Trump asked me to give you an exclusive opportunity to activate your Official 2020 Trump Platinum Membership.

This group is reserved for ONLY the President’s BEST supporters, which is why he specifically requested for YOU to join.

Pitch from the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (linked to from a YouTube ad featuring Stacey Abrams):

“Your immediate grassroots support has never been more critical: Please, donate NOW -- before this TRIPLE MATCH opportunity expires -- to flip the Senate and end McConnell’s majority once and for all!”


Hannity and Junior are cashing on book sales from Trump campaign donations. 


Here's the latest messaging - should get some left wing mob shirts?:

With your help, we’ll send a POWERFUL message to the Left-wing MOB that:

America will NEVER be a Corrupt Nation.

America will NEVER be a Violent Nation.

America will NEVER be a Socialist Nation.

We are arguably already checking the first two boxes. 


Still getting the emails - this one stood out a bit.  I had no idea that's what the Nobel Peace prize looked like.


Haven't shared any Trump emails in awhile - I hardly check them anymore.  It feels like half of them are Fox personalities pushing their latest books.

Here's a poll you can take:

I love how when it comes to ratings his performance - options are: Incredible, Great or Good.  

Here's his latest t-shirt:


The Trump campaign is still going full force!

It’s almost Christmas and President Trump wants to do something special for his top supporters, like YOU!

For a short time, when you make a contribution of $45, we’ll send you one of our ICONIC 2020 Trump Christmas Ornaments FOR FREE.

This offer is available to you for ONE HOUR. After that, you may never get another chance to receive a FREE 2020 Trump Christmas Ornament.


The Trump campaign is such a cash cow for the Trump family.  I feel bad that people are handing money over to them.

The campaign emails show the stark contrast between the 2.  Biden did have a little fundraiser with an inauguration sticker.  Money goes to ActBlue,  This is virtually the only tangible thing a donation would get from the Biden emails in the past month.

Meanwhile, Trump is trying to sell you everything he can.

- Holiday Ornaments (min don. $45)

- 2021 Calendars (min don. $30)

- Hat and shirts of course - for $30 you can get a "Count all legal votes" T

- "We can say Merry Christmas again" bumper stickers (min don. $30)

- Your donation will put you a list that will wish Trump and family a Merry Christmas (their goal is to have 1 million people do this)

After signing it - $100 is the recommended amount for them to have the resources to protect the election results.  And we "Can't allow the Left Wing mob to undermine our election".

He IS merely cashing in at this point.  Is there any law that will prevent him from conning his followers?  Or do they deserve to lose their money to Donny?


For $35 on Black Friday you got a FREE gift.  I guess it's a mystery.


Also, since the election - I received 452 Trump related emails.

 Speaking for myself, I like the idea of him having a day of reckoning when Vlad's bill comes due.

 If it continues like this, he will have raised Vlad's $400million before Christmas.

 Hmm, I guess because it feels criminal.  Trump may as well ask people to give him money to buy a unicorn.  So,  the question is - Do Trumpers deserve to lose their money from the Liar in Chief?

I'd prefer that people stop getting suckered out of their cash.


From Don Jr:

My father and our wonderful First Lady have done so much for this great Nation, and to thank them, we want to surprise them with a MASSIVE Christmas Card from the American People.

Our goal is to reach 1 MILLION signatures from Patriots all around the Country, and I know they’ll be excited to see the names of their BEST supporters, like YOU.

If you sign the card RIGHT NOW, you can even leave a personal note for them to read. HURRY - don’t wait.

--------------------------------------------------------

1) Donny and Mel will NOT be excited to see your name.

2) You are NOT their BEST supporter, you are a sucker (Patriot=sucker in their minds).

3) They will NEVER read your personal note, don't get excited at the idea that they will. 

Their logo should be Make Donny Richer Again.

Hmm, interesting take:

The big con involves creating a fake business such as a race horse betting parlor and convincing the victim that there’s a way to cheat the betting parlor.

So, the con with Trump is in having his followers believe that their donation will help to keep him in power.

I was trying to figure out if Donny is a con artist or a scammer:

Scammer is a more general term for a criminal who attempts to cheat you out of your money in a remote manner- over the phone, through email, fake websites. They cast a wide net but convince a smaller number of victims.
Con artist or con man are much older terms. These criminals attempt to cheat you out of money or belongings directly in person for the most part. There is a story and the attempt to gain your trust or confidence (the “con” part of the term) as a part of the crime. They either evoke sympathy or greed in their victim with their story and performance.
These terms are not entirely mutually exclusive, there are some people who run a scam in person and there were con artists at earlier points in history who were running cons via phone but in general scammer is a more modern term for the less direct and personal approach to the same idea of a crime being committed through deception.

I think he's a little of both.

 The conman preceded the scammer. Trump has learned that he can use technology to con people. He don’t need to personally shake their nasty hands...



Today Trump tweeted "WE HAVE JUST BEGUN TO FIGHT!!!”

So, come on, Trumpkins, keep that money rolling. The fight has not ended, it just started.

To mtierney - This is YOUR opportunity. Hurry, hurry, don't waste time. Send him your monthly Soc Sec payments and add your note advising him so. He will be so very excited that he will personally respond to you. As an inducement, my Trump supporting neighbor will personally match your donations by 500%. 


This is your FINAL NOTICE.

So far, you've ignored EVERY email inviting you to join the Presidential Honor Roll. You’ve ignored Team Trump, Lara, Don Jr., AND the President of the United States.

We’ve done everything we can to get you to join this prestigious group,

and now we’re reaching out to let you know that this is your LAST CHANCE.

President Trump is holding your spot until 11:59 PM TONIGHT. After that, you will no longer be considered for a spot on the Presidential Honor Roll.


Also - I love this one - I can get a FREE Gift!  Just need to donate at least $15.  They are in overdrive with cashing in at this point.  I'd bet a million bucks that it's a bumper sticker.

CLAIM YOUR FREE CHRISTMAS GIFT!

We have an EXCLUSIVE offer just for YOU.

Christmas is right around the corner and President Trump wants to celebrate a few of his BEST supporters with an exclusive, one-time offer.

The President knows that YOU have been by his side since DAY ONE, so it should come as no surprise that YOUR NAME was on the list to receive a FREE CHRISTMAS GIFT!

This email is intended for Kevin. Please do not share this with anyone else.

Please contribute at least $15 IMMEDIATELY to claim your FREE CHRISTMAS GIFT from President Trump. >>


From last nig\

t - Trumpers are such thin-skinned snow flakes:

Wow.

First, Hillary called you DEPLORABLE.

Then, Joe Biden said we aren’t good people.

Next, Nancy called you a DOMESTIC ENEMY.


And NOW, Biden’s campaign manager says we’re “a bunch of f---ers.”

This is what the Left thinks of you. They HATE you and only want to BRING YOU DOWN. Unbelievable. We cannot allow these LOW-LIFE DEMOCRATS to run our Country.

We’re turning to the President’s strongest defenders, like Jamie from New Jersey, to step up and FIGHT BACK against the Radical Left. We must DEFEND the Election.


Amazingly - no Trump emails since 1/6 at 1:34pm.  Here's most of the content from that email:

TODAY will be a historic day in our Nation’s history. Congress will either certify, or object to, the Election results.

Every single Patriot from across the Country must step up RIGHT NOW if we’re going to successfully DEFEND the integrity of this Election. President Trump is calling on YOU to bolster our Official Defend America Fund.

President Trump needs his strongest supporters, like YOU, to fight back and DEFEND AMERICA. Can he count on your support?

Contribute $5 RIGHT NOW to the Official Defend America Fund and to increase your impact by 1000%.


Still no emails from Trump - even his people know not to continue the beg-a-thon.

Looking over the nearly 2,000 emails I got from the Trump campaign, the word "Covid" is mentioned in 8 of them.  The word "Sorry" is never used.  I had expected something like "We're sorry to hear of the rise is death s resulting from the pandemic- etc."

Overall, I would say every email contained at least 1 lie.

I wonder what happens to the suckers who opted to contribute monthly, do those ever stop - Trump certainly won't stop them.

-------------------

It may be because Donny can no longer collect money:

And his email providers cut him off, too.

eta:  They all decided to actually "stop the steal."


Looks like the GOP has taken over the Trump email list - they aren't as frequent.  Here's some of their content:

The Biden Administration is putting policies in place that are hurting the American People. Period.

In such a short amount of time, we’re already seeing plans that will bankrupt our country and stifle our economy.

  • Biden has taken away THOUSANDS of American jobs
  • We have rejoined the disastrous Paris Climate Agreement
  • Biden has STOPPED the Keystone Pipeline
  • Biden has HALTED the construction of the Southern Border Wall
  • Biden is FILLING THE SWAMP with corrupt cabinet members

---------------------------------------

Any know which cabinet members are corrupt - is it worth googling?


A number of his appointments have been confirmed by the Senate with support from Republicans. I will look for article on Politico which listed them.
