    “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

          https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/03/us/politics/trump-donations.html

          ... Facing a cash crunch and getting badly outspent by the Democrats, the [Trump] campaign had begun last September to set up recurring donations by default for online donors, for every week until the election.
          .
          Contributors had to wade through a fine-print disclaimer and manually uncheck a box to opt out.
          .
          As the election neared, the Trump team made that disclaimer increasingly opaque, [...]. It introduced a second prechecked box, known internally as a “money bomb,” that doubled a person’s contribution. Eventually its solicitations featured lines of text in bold and capital letters that overwhelmed the opt-out language.
          .
          The tactic ensnared scores of unsuspecting Trump loyalists — retirees, military veterans, nurses and even experienced political operatives. Soon, banks and credit card companies were inundated with fraud complaints from the president’s own supporters about donations they had not intended to make, sometimes for thousands of dollars.
          ...

                        You seem to think that that question is somehow important when it comes to the question of grifting. Why is that?

                        Do you harbor hope that some other misconducts of the TLP guys can somehow absolve Trump and the NRCC’s questionable fund raising practices? Or you just throwing things at the wall desperate to distract attention away from Trump and the NRCC’s fund raising practices? Note that so far you have written nothing to defend Trump and the NRCC’s fundraising practices.

                          No, I'm showing how absolutely morally bereft the dickheads at the Lincoln Project are...Hence the title of the thread. I think the Trump Campaign's transgressions pale in comparison to how evil the Lincolnista were. And are.

                            https://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-save-america-pac-surprise-birthday-donations-election-maga-2021-6

                            Save America, the political action committee (PAC) created by Donald Trump, is urging donors to "surprise" the former president with extra money on his birthday.

                            When supporters donate via Save America's site, the website automatically ticks a box saying they would like to donate the same amount on Trump's birthday, which is June 14.

                            For example, if a supporter donates $250, the website automatically opts them in to donating an additional $250 on June 14.

                                  Donald Trump filed lawsuits against Facebook, Twitter, and Google on Wednesday, accusing the companies of violating his and other conservatives’ First Amendment rights. But winning these lawsuits seems to be beside the point for Trump.

                                  Legal experts say these are frivolous cases likely to be thrown out of court, but Trump is already using them as a way to fundraise from supporters.

                                  So, it’s just another ploy to get Trump supporters to cough up more money for Trump.

                                      “Trump PAC has not used any of the $75M its raised this year to help fund election audits”

                                      The PAC was formed after the 2020 election to help fund the Trump team's efforts to challenge results.

                                      Yet people familiar with the PAC’s finances told the news outlet that the committee has held onto much of the money, while a portion has been used to pay for some of Trump’s expenses, including travel and legal costs, as well as staff pay.

                                        Over 1000 people signed up, most accounts have only the 100 coins offered as initial sign-up gift. Some conservative media personalities got around a thousand free coins ad incentives to help promote the new cryptocurrency. But …

                                        ”The data also reveals that the lion’s share of the cryptocurrency so far produced has been allocated to the self-described creator of magacoin, a pro-Trump consultant who owns an LLC associated with the cryptocurrency, and a Super Pac associated with the same consultant.”
