I have been asked for $953 by politicians or PAC's

$47 by Obama and Harris. Who both noted that I have never given a penny to her campaign.

The rest was Trumpy bear or Trumpy bear aligned groups. Who also noted that I have given nothing.

I voted 2 weeks ago, folks. The insanity must end.

Yes I agree . I'm getting phone calls emails reg mail and the ads on Facebook tv radio and Twitter are tiring here. All eyes are on Penn. I can't imagine what it's like there right now.

I would be ok getting non-poticial junk mail. Right now it's like 5 or 6 mailers a day. Plus calls. Texts. Ads online galore.

Couple people have stopped by and knocked on the front door.

Apparently that gear was only made for small wrists relating to the "swiss" watches aka Chinese knockoffs, AND unmanly foot sizes under size 10 on the gold sneakers. I wore a 10 in 8th grade lol

Anyway - politicians are always going to have a hand out asking for money - or pulling it directly out of your pocket once they're elected. It's sickening, and I'll be looking forward to no more election ads clogging up the airways - and my mailbox.

The world's attention is on one state.
That being Penn of course

Then you must be TWICE as angered and sickened by the Dems as you are at the Republicans. They're the ones who are pulling the BIG BUCKS out of everyone's pockets so they can outspend the GOP in clogging up the airwaves and your mailbox.

(Ever wonder why you don't hear Dems whining about the Citizens United decision anymore?)

P.S. In 2016, Hillary lost despite outspending Trump by 2:1 and being endorsed by 98% of major newspapers in this country.

Do you even know how this works?
I have been thankful for the spam protection on my texts and phone calls. It has been non stop.

I am all for an energized base getting the word out to the people, but this is insane.
