How many of you MAGAts have contributed to Peter Navarro's defense fund?
So he doesn't have to honor a congressional subpeona.
I don't give money to politicians. Period.
only sheeple give money to TV preachers and politicians
Agree on TV preachers.
Disagree on politicians. You need to support good candidates that reflect your values.
I sent money to Cheney
I can support a good candidate by giving them my vote.
I have a cousin who simultaneously uses the word "Republicans" in third person while getting irate when the GOP loses an election or when his GOP representatives fail to vote for or stop some legislation he doesn't like. Won't donate any money or go get involved in the local party. Just self-entitlement - as though he's owed a solution he wants by a party and politicians he refuses to support with anything other than a vote. Will call me in a panic that Beto might win. But actually send $100 bucks to help Abbot win? Why, only chumps do that.
If you aren't donating, you aren't really participating in elections. Phil Gramm had a great little riff on that one and he's right. It doesn't matter how good your platform is, if nobody knows about it. It doesn't matter how good your candidate might be, if nobody knows his/her name. My cousin knows he can't sell if he doesn't advertise and call on customers and direct mail and conventions and.......all of which costs money. But political campaigns? Why they're supposed to just spring organically from the ground and bear fruit without a drop of rain. And when such doesn't happen...."there go those Republicans again, letting me down."
A candidate is worth your vote, but you don't donate $20 to him/her?
You're not exactly putting much value into your vote.
