National Republican Senatorial Committee funds declined to just $28.4 million by the end of June. (Photo: Manuel Augusto Moreno via Getty Images) Anumber of Republican strategists and consultants are growing increasingly dismayed about millions of dollars vanishing at the National Republican Senatorial Committee — just when the funds are needed most, The Washington Post reported Friday.

Cash at the national campaign fund is dwindling as candidates head into the final stretch of Senate races across the U.S.

I’ve been continuously “Winred”ing since April/May 2020 directly to President Trump’s “Save America” with an automatic bank account debit...

Never had a problem...

When, initially, the GOP leaches (which includes RNC, Trump children, lots of Senate candidates, and a few governors) tried to get a place at the spigot, I spamm-registered them or wrote fire-storm letters directly to the leeches...

Just like Tucker said this week, Mitch is really not interested in taking back the Senate. It would be way more work for him to have to display leadership (he has very little leadership ability). Much easier to be the minority party leader. He only supports candidates friendly to Mitch.

Lots of misinformation out there on winred, hard to determine the truth. Actblue is a non profit so more reporting there.

Nearest I can determine they do pass on all contributions to the candidates quickly. Winred charges a fee to recipients of 3-5 percent depending on the size of contributions. Some one pays the fees for the credit cards also which are 3-5 percent.

Winred does still collect a fee on refunded collections, thus their aggressiveness. But this aggressiveness does appear to give a net benefit to the recipient, else they would not do it.

My analysis is winred does a reasonable job for candidates, still better morally than non profit ACTBlue operation system.

Folks, lets face it, it costs money to get donations. I suspect winred is lower cost than others.

Trump still believes in it and the only way to contribute to Trump. , but I still trust Trump , he helped set this up.

I Give Trump $100 per month via winred. Once you get past the perceived aggressiveness, it works. Nothing is perfect.

Regular month contributions are important for organizations, even Free Republic.

I’m not sure... there’s something you aren’t supposed to smell but I can’t remember what. Come to think of it, I think memory loss is also a warning sign.

So much to keep up with.

after The New York Times reported online donations to WinRed dropped 12% from the first to the second quarter of 2022, while donations to ActBlue jumped 21% for that same period.”


That should encourage us to give more to Trump, not less.

As a many decades GOP contributor I learned before the age of twenty NEVER give to the GOP if you can give directly to solid candidates. Why would I have contributed to the party when I could simply contribute to guys like Reagan, Helms, Laxalt, Bob Smith, Jeremiah Denton, etc. You fill in the germane names is 2022 but the operating guidance remains the same.

“I never donate to groups, anymore. I donate directly to individuals through their websites.”

I learned this from Sarah Palin. I hate McCain (I hope you are burning in hell asshole) and she said it herself, send it “my PAC”. She knew she was being used.

Could it possibly be the fact that there have been so many challenged primaries? Where candidates who really had no chance, like Cheney or Greitens, sucked up money that was better spent on people like Schmitt or Masters?

As an alternative, there are the Senate Conservatives Fund and the House Conservatives Fun. These are not perfect, but beats putting money in Mitch McConnell’s piggy bank.

Democrats have always called the Republican party the party of the rich. So why is it that Democrat TV ads seem to outnumber Republican TV ads by (depending on the year and the race) about 5 to 1 to 10 to 1? Your infrastructure dollars at work?

I have blocked all WinRed text messages starting this past week. It is/was a very unethical method of extracting money from my checking account. The only donations I willingly, originally chose to make were for President Trump, Herschel Walker and whoever can DEFEAT that oily snake, that bald phony, sporting his military uniform and his brain-damaged wife—“Senator” Mark Kelly.

Through Win Red, all kinds of money have been extracted from my checking account—including “donations” for GOP candidates I have never even heard of. It’s impossible to call someone at WinRed to stop these unintended “donations.” We had to stop the theft through my bank, there was no other way to stop WinRed. In the meantime, I continue to get new WinRed text messages, begging for donations, I am now responding to every text message with “stop.” Someday I expect the text messages will stop.

My problem with the NRSC and the GOP is they use Donald Trump’s name to solicit funds. I stopped giving to them because of that.

Also they are paying all of trumps legal bills. That’s got to be pretty expensive.
