Holy Shit! Check out these insane fundraising emails and texts Trump is sending to his supporters...

President Donald Trump’s 2020 reelection campaign is coming under fire over campaign fundraising emails which some supporters are calling “gross” and “scary.”

Most of the emails — which typically claimed to be from the president himself or one of his children — attempted to shame Trump supporters for not donating enough money, and used manipulative language to guilt recipients into giving more, prompting social media users to make comparisons to “mob collections” and “slumlord” eviction notices.

At least, that's what some grifting campaign adviser is telling the Trump campaign. Might as well score some of that sweet campaign dough that they're pouring out like water.

My associates John "Deep Six" and Larry "the Backbreaker" stopped by my office and asked me if you'd donated more money to the President's re-election campaign yet. I checked the books, and to my surprise, you hadn't.

They told me that they'd be happy to come to your house and collect the donation and save you the effort. I told them no, I'm sure it was just an oversight, let me text you one last time.

So here we are. Won't you please respond to this text with your commitment for another $100? I'll tell John "Deep Six" and Larry "the Backbreaker" that you've come through for us and there's no need for any of us to suffer any inconvenience.

Making America Great Again,
Don Jr.

P.S. You have beautiful children.

The language used for the amount of $36 and change =

If you act now they will double the offer?



As if there is enough $ to save this pompous jackass from the grim reaper?

Is it run like a boiler room ? Like if Jr. sends it to you and that’s the one you finally donate to, since he broke you, then he gets the big cut etc. they seem so low who gives ? Milllions

Do they not suspect that this may not have been an actual supporter?


Oh, I and I took that survey in the last screenshot and faced questions like:

Who will you vote for - President Trump or Sleepy Joe Biden

and

Who will you vote for - President Trump or China Joe Biden (in the same survey, one question down)

and

Do you believe President Trump has created the BEST economy in the history of America?


Crazy shit.

one more chance. Then one more...

The other day a DUer posted one up-chain from these followups that had gone out to the unworthy. It had a more arrogantly authoritarian threat of exile from Trump's People.
