Trump's Campaign Keeps Sending Texts Begging for Money and Even His Own Supporters Are Lashing Out

Trump's Campaign Keeps Sending Texts Begging for Money and Even His Own Supporters Are Lashing Out

President Donald Trump's campaign has a massive war chest, raising millions a month. Notably, however, Democratic nominee Joe Biden has outraised Trump for two straight months. Nevertheless, the Trump campaign still enjoyed record fundraising hauls during that time as well.

Biden's increase in fundraising may be why the Trump campaign appears to be doubling down on text messages and emails to supporters, but the incessant messages are turning many of their recipients off.


Some of the messages are downright insulting, appearing to guilt voters who don't appreciate being treated as gullible.

Among those fed up with the messages is author and Trump supporter Kurt Schlichter.

Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale insisted that the screenshotted text wasn't from the Trump campaign, not acknowledging that the donation URL leads to WinRed, the preferred fundraising platform from the Trump campaign.

Parscale's defense aside, the President's own supporters are becoming weary of the repeated messages, many of which are phrased to guilt the reader into coughing up more dough.








Trump's detractors who signed up for texts when jokingly reserving tickets for Trump's rallies have noticed the excess as well.





People can't stop mocking the campaign's apparent desperation.



Last year, three Minnesotans sued the Trump campaign for violating their privacy with text messages advertising his rally.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
