Just received a call from the RNC asking for Money for Donald Trump
Self | 6 June, 2016 | Marktwain

Posted on 06/06/2016 7:32:32 PM PDT by marktwain

A few minutes ago, I received a call from the Republican National Committee. I had stopped sending them money a while back, disgusted by their willingness to go along with the Obama agenda.

The lady on the phone claimed to be a 76-year-old grandmother, and that the RNC needed the money to support Donald Trump and combat "crooked Hillary".

It was a great pitch. I found my resolve slipping. I told her that she was a great salesperson, but that I would have to think it over with my friends at freerepublic.

So, what is the best way to support the Republican presumptive nominee. The lady from the RNC said Rence Priebus is completely on board with Donald Trump.

Are they a good vehicle for supporting Trump?

What are the advantages of giving money to the RNC?

What are the disadvantages of giving money to the RNC?

What are other vehicles for support of the Republican nominee?

That’s why I’m saying donating time would be better choice if you don’t want to donate money.

I have noticed recently their tactic is to talk fast and ignore any attempt to ask them a question. Probably tired of getting an earful on each phone call. I tried several times to politely decline a donation but since they won’t stop talking, I just lay the receiver on the table and walk away. Later when I am near the phone I hang it up. The last one my wife asked me why the phone was off the hook. After I explained what I was doing, she picked it up and hung it up, then turned to me and told me the guy was still talking.

So in other words what a Trump said before was all BS?

Or is it that Trump is now beholden to his masters?

Which is it?

We are giving directly to Trump’s campaign. We told the RNC caller that when they go Bill Kristol and Paul Ryan under control to calls us.

“Which is it?”
I have no idea.

Just pointing out that a national election is more expensive than primaries. The “experts” have said Trump will need to raise funds for the national. They have been wrong so far on a lot of things Trump.

He always said he was self-funding the primaries and would make a decision later about accepting money for the general. He never outright stated he would totally self fund in the general. It would be his ideal, but that is a LOT of scratch!
