As tempting as it’s been, I’ll remain an R. We can’t make changes from outside, we need to be inside the group to effect change. Having said that I won’t donate to the RNC although I’ll donate to individual candidates or for issues I support.
About three weeks ago someone from the RNC telephoned me to as for a donation. I usually just hang up on solicitations like this this time I talked to the guy calling. He started telling me how hard Paul Ryan has been working on issues we all care about. I interrupted him and said Paul Ryan lied to us voters. Then the caller kept trying to support Ryan and I kept saying “but he lied to us” or “he’s a liar”. I never cussed nor was I disrespectful. I just kept insisting that Ryan and the RNC are a bunch of liars who cannot be trusted to spend any donation effectively.
It was great fun for about five or ten minutes, until I got tired of the game and hung up on him. I don’t know if I ruined his day but I sure stimulated mine.
