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

If you desire to send money to Donald Trump, send money to DONALD TRUMP, not the RNC.

I received an email from the RNC on behalf of the Trump campaign, today. In the fine print at the bottom of the page they claim that 80% of your donation will go directly to supporting Trump in the general election.

I’ve been too busy to roll up my sleeves and sort out what entity I’ll send my donations to, but I’m definitely going to begin putting my money where my mouth is. I just want to make sure the bulk of my donations go to getting Trump elected.

I believe the latest is:

Trump is outsourcing to the RNC for much of it. RNC is going to be responsible for much of the campaign functions and efforts, GOTV, etc.

So, yeah, giving to RNC is giving to Trump’s campaign.

We never give RNC a penny.

Look back on the last six months and tell me if you can find one good reason to trust them.

We donate to FR, 2A groups and directly to very rare candidates of our choosing.

Trump has a website. If you want to donate to him go there.

RNC donations are like paying taxes voluntarily to people who don’t represent you.

Give the money directly, this is complete RNC BS.

>>>Trump is self funding. That way he is not compromised.

That is no longer operative. There will be PAC(s); much will be outsourced to the RNC and funded outside Trump’s “self-funding.”

You think there’s still a difference between Trump and RNC?

Today I saw a yard surrounded by flags with a “Hillary for Prison” yard sign. I couldn’t believe it! Seeing each other supporting Trump is a great way to support Trump. It emboldens those who fear what others may think. We are NOT alone!

When they call me I always tell these pacs that my money will go directly to the candidate, and it does. I don’t trust those “second-hand” deals.

I got the same deal - told them that they still had a lot to prove and that i would donate directly to the Trump campaign, thankyouverymuchandgoodbye....

Copy and paste this:

https://www.donaldjtrump.com/

I donate monthly now and have never been bothered with a plea for more money or "emergency donations" as I was after donating to Cruz. All I get is a Thank You email with no strings attached.

Yeah, like the RNC is gonna use that money for Trump. These are the same people who demanded Trump swear an oath to not run as an independent and now publicly debate running an independent against Trump.

I’m finished with the RNC.

Nomorobo.com. Blocks telemarketing calls. Your phone rings once and caller gets sent to never land. Best thing we have ever done. When the phone rings my hubby and I look at each other and relief falls over us if we don’t get a second ring.

“RNC = Reince Preibus the two-faced hypocrite, Turtle Face the spineless, gutless eunuch, and Paul Ryan the two-faced schmuck!”

And let’s not leave out that worthless, POS “speaker” Ryan.
