I’m not giving to them, but I get between three and eight political text messages from phone numbers not previously blocked, each day, with most being the House, Senate, or RNC committees.
They don’t respect my “STOPs” and they just text on a different phone number, when blocked. With emails, I always remove my name, but they make a new list and put my name on that one, making me remove my name, again.
There is no end to the incessant requests from the GOP.
They are a scourge!
Same thing is happening to me and I am not even registered as a Republican anymore after 2021. Pretty ticked off.

I also get many of these messages. The formula is their providing a content messages from this or that Republican incumbant or candidate for office. Often the message claims it wants your views and to check a box, or a yes/no choice. They then display donation amount boxes to check. If one does not donate, the software does not let you continue and does not accept your opinion checking. The botton of each messsage explained that the messages are being sent by WINRED on behalf of Republican incumbants and candidates. Their choice of doing it this way is a big annoyance. The more one gives, the more solicitation messages one receives to the point that one gets annoyed with all the incumbants and candidates and one erases them all and declares them “junk.” The kicker is the system asks you if you want to block the phone number. If one says “yes,” they block it, but just send you messages from a different phone number. The fund-raising machine tries very hard, but winds up turning off the recipients. They make clear they couldn’t care less for our opinion.
Their request our us to “give them our opinion” is bait to get to the donations page. How stupid do they think people are? It works a few times and then one justs erases the incominig messages without reading them at all. This WINRED deal is taking up a lot of their resources to deluge potential donors. Even Trump’s organization is using them. Perhaps the Democrats are doing the same thing. I don’t know.
