The only time I've ever donated to a candidate was to Ted Cruz (before I stopped supporting him).
Now I'm receiving unsolicited emails like this one:
========================================================== [Redacted],
We’ve been with Mr. Trump since the beginning of this campaign. We have seen a lot of things. There have been personal attacks on Mr. Trump from all directions, the media has mischaracterized a lot of things he said, and there have been a lot of times when it would have been easier to give up.
We have seen even more great things. The crowds at rallies have been inspiring and the letters, emails, and tweets of support have been amazing.
While many candidates and campaigns claim to be part of a movement, there is no doubt that Mr. Trump has woken up America.
We are so close to making America great again, but we could use your help to push us over the top. Will you commit $50, $25 or even $5? Your support, whatever it is, will make a huge difference in this campaign.
MAKE AN IMMEDIATE CONTRIBUTION:
CONTRIBUTE $25 NOW >>>
CONTRIBUTE $45 NOW >>>
CONTRIBUTE $75 NOW >>>
CONTRIBUTE $100 NOW >>>
CONTRIBUTE $250 NOW >>>
CONTRIBUTE ANOTHER AMOUNT >>>
We appreciate all you do.
We would not have been able to get to this point without you.
Thank you,
Team Trump

Hot link in email goes to what looks like a copycat of the Trump site I saw at your link:

And here it is one more time Wayne - straight from the Boss’ mouth. Words for *you* to live by -

And just for fun, check out what happened to the guy to whom JimRob was posting.
He chose to ignore the “friendly” warnings -

Juan is a fool.
I think Juan just got pwned -- I get those emails all the time and they are from the RNC, not from DJT. THAT IS WHY I ONLY DONATE AT THE TRUMP WEBSITE. Never click on a link in an email to donate.
Starve those slithy toves at the RNC into submission!
Yes, I have never received an email request for donations from him so I am very suspicious of anything like that.
I only donate to him directly at his website and ignore anything else. Those emails remind me very much of the Ted Cruz emails I got constantly. (I never donated to Ted Cruz so I am guessing someone sold my email address to his campaign).
Wayne, why are you excerpting your own column?
Can’t you just post the entire article here?
Are you trying to get hits to your web page from us here?
Mail your donation directly to Trump at his office in NY. He will be happy to take it. You can also donate on his website. It goes to him not a super pac.
He funded his primary campaign. He asked us for nothing! Now it is time for all of us to fund his “general” campaign.
Everyone on his Twitter or Facebook lists and attended any of his free tickets rallies should send our $$$$ on to donaldjtrump.com ASAP!
iF “Crazy Bernie’s fans can fund him, NOW IS THE TIME FOR US TO COME TO HIS AID!
Wayne is a good guy with a lot to offer here at Free Republic.
I’ve worked with him before on the road and he has a lot of venues which he uses for the betterment of out Constitutional Republic.
Lets not chase him away as has been done with some other people that happen to have their information on a “blog”
Thanks
I don’t want to do that, I just want him to post the whole thing HE wrote.
That is REALLY not too much to ask from a “good guy with lots to offer Free Republic.”
I’m dismayed to see that after he’s been told the rules and knows what’s expected from him, he refuses to change.
It won’t end well for him.
This is why Humblegunner.
Wayne? Baby? How's it goin'?
I see you're real prolific with that blog thingy of yours.
Syncro is somebody I respect and like.
He says you're OK.
Let me ask you a question Wayne.
Did you ever look at that part of the thread
right below where your article is and the comments start?
It looks like this:
Free Republic is brought to you ad-free, without pop-ups or ad tracking cookies, thanks to donations made by our members who love and use it. Thank you very much for your loyal support!
That link at the end is to a page where loyal FReepers go to donate money that keeps this site running ad free.
You get the idea?
Then there's the stated policy from the Boss.
You can read it by clicking here.
We are not asking you not to post here.
We are asking you not to needlessly excerpt your original content.
That way you're part of our community - one of *US*.
It'll keep people from thinking that you're just some freeloader
trying to make out buck off of the site that *WE* pay for.
So how 'bout it Wayne?
Full content from now on - OK?
Thanks!
Sorry.
Should have pinged you to post #32.
He left off a couple of sentences, big deal.
There are exceptions to “post the whole thing” if you wrote it.
His site has less advertising then most “real” news sources posted here, why don’t you go after Bow Tie Boy and his Daily caller with popups and other invasive stuff on his worse-than-a-blog leftist propaganda URL.
BTW your “subtle” little threat “it won’t end well for him” isn’t in line with what Free Republic is all about.
If you don’t like blogs, don’t look at them and don’t click on them.
In order to direct Free Republic's traffic to his blog.
That's the objectionable deal.
Some folks don't care to provide a free advertising platform to bloggers.. or anybody else.
Hay no problem, keep harassing him and I imagine he will go where he is more welcome.
It’s attitudes like in your post that drive away people that have a lot to offer to FR.
Real cute and syrupy sweet digs disguised as “being nice”
It’s only the blog haters that try to force people to donate to FR. The policy has always been that you can enjoy and use FR without donating. With no stigma attached.
I guess if he doesn’t come back, I can post from his site.
Chase me away too if you want to.
No one has to click on the link.
People that are afraid that blogs will jump up and tweak their noses should not click on the links.
He has less advertising then ALL major news sources posted here, why not go after them with their popups and auto starts?
Well lets get rid of the copyright list and post complete articles from all news sources.
Some here years ago tried to get Ann Coulter's columns banned from FR.
Her stuff is excerpted too and will continue to be as she is a friend of FR.
Wayne would be too if he's not chased away,
Hard to say without specifics.
Probably because it isn't a case of the "author" hawking his own amateur stuff on Free Republic's dime.
I didn't even mention "noob" anywhere although I should have...
Bears repeating!
Donate ONLY at http://secure.donaldjtrump.com
I've donated twice DIRECTLY to Donald J. Trump and NEVER to RNC or NRSC!!
