Nehlen barred from WI GOP Convention in April.
Oh brother!
Eliminate pensions, reduce benefits and pay them $1 per year. That’s a start.
Just donated, from Arizona.
The guy is smart, asking for as little as $10.
That I can handle, as I am spreading donations around (Kelli Ward, etc.)
The counter-argument to that is that they would be more susceptible to bribery.
I just got an email FUNDRAISER for Great America PAC.
As far as I know, Trump has disavowed this and all pacs...he won’t get the $$$ out of this, a small amount may go for ‘ads’ as they claim and WHO gave them my name and personal email account...The Trump organization doesn’t have it....is this just another RNC SCAM??
At the bottom it evens says “NOT authorized by an candidate or candidate committee.

IMO, this is just another scam using Trump and in the end hurts his campaign. These are lobbyists...the very people we need to be rid of! Ed Rollins...don’t trust him! Frankly, I don’t want them doing advertising...which might do more harm than good.
Is anyone else getting these solicitations?

Friend,
Ed Rollins, Ronald Reagan’s victorious 1984 re-election campaign manager, couldn’t be more right.
Donald J. Trump has run an unprecedented campaign of truly historic proportions, self-funding his Republican Presidential Primary effort and generating massive support among a record-setting, highly-motivated, truly grassroots voting public ready for real change.
Now, after his dominating win in Indiana and the exit of his final GOP challengers — he’s our presumptive nominee...
...And he’s heading into an historic showdown with Hillary Clinton and her billion-dollar buzz saw Clinton Democrat political machine.
Friend, Donald Trump needs the help of every American patriot tired of Washington, DC establishment elites running our country into the ground — and he needs it now.
That’s why I stepped up to help lead Great America PAC — and why I’m directly appealing to you today.
We’ve already run over $1 million in television ads to defend Mr. Trump and united more than a million new supporters behind his campaign, but I’m telling you right now, we’re taking this to a whole new level.
As the Wall Street Journal just made clear, Great America PAC is now the number one PAC supporting the election of Donald Trump as our next President of the United States! Ed Rollins — Mr. Trump calls him “tremendous”— is on board, Dr. Ben Carson just hosted our inaugural national conference call, and we’re building out the plan to hire dozens of new staffers, and dynamic new additions to our finance committee.
But we’re going to need the support of energized, wide-awake patriots who know just how difficult it will be to defeat the shameless Hillary Clinton and her globalist Big Government special interest limousine liberal donor class with literally billions of your stolen tax dollars to burn to elect her.
Now is the time, Friend!
Please step forward today and extend your difference-making financial support to this great American movement to make our beloved country truly great again — make a generous contribution of $25, $50, $75, or even $100 or more to Great America PAC today!
Sincerely,
Eric Beach
National Co-Chair, Great America PAC
AuntB, I’m looking for something Trump said in connection with Ryan, most likely on FR. That he was donating the maximum to Ryan’s challenger, and some other things. Sound familiar? I can’t find it, dang it!
I don’t remember reading that. Maybe he said it at a campaign rally?
I haven’t listened to any rallies latey, I read the words. Maybe I’ll have to do a (dreaded) vanity to find it.
Maybe, but isn’t what they are doing bribery? And for decades at a time. The upshot of cutting pay and benefits is to weed out the dynastic members and replace them with people who don’t need bribes.
I’d also want term limits.
“Maybe, but isn’t what they are doing bribery?”
Yes.
“The upshot of cutting pay and benefits is to weed out the dynastic members and replace them with people who don’t need bribes.”
Who can work for nothing? FDR had his dollar-a-year men, and that’s why they joked that OSS stood for “Oh, so social.” Is public office to be limited to the wealthy?
“I’d also want term limits.”
We need to term-limit the unelected staff. Even if the rep or senator changes, the staff remains to poison the well.
Great post, AuntB!
“Once a despicable scoundrel like Ryan is elected to office, it takes huge amounts of money and effort to get him out.
What could be done to deter scumbags from standing for public office?”
Expose and rid ourselves of the lobbyists & their ‘non profits’ who recruit and control them. That is Trump’s biggest message. The lobbyist write the laws and control our candidates.
There is momentum (thanks to Trump) to "throw the bums out!" The time is right. You're going down, Paul Ryano!
“You’re going down, Paul Ryano!”
I hope he does hard time, but it would still be better to stop electing immoral filth.
