I donated to the two Republican candidates in the 2021 Georgia Senatorial runoffs and must have made the mistake of giving one my cell phone number. Somehow that was given or sold to Trump’s PAC. And now I’m getting spammed by messages like those maybe once every couple of days. I used to get multiple messages a day until I started replying with obscenities and STOP messages.
These also started coming from Trump favored candidates and Trump’s kids and daughter in law.
I have two friends who are big Trump supporters and they’re getting hit worse than I am.
Vitaman’s post is a pretty good description of what the messages say. We’ve got 5X matching funds but only if you give in the next 5 minutes. What’s the matter, you haven’t sent us money, are you against us now? And yes Don Jr.’s the worst.
There was a big push on early last year in the messages to get people to start using Trump’s for-profit social media platform. I bet Trump’s PAC was paying for that, as the phone number that was sending out some of the messages asking for contributions was the same one that was promoting the new platform.
