General Discussion

They do know that. Politicans are under a lot of pressure to raise money especially if they aren't the types to receive cash from nefarious special interest groups. Funding is a daily concern until the system changes. Of course it is impossible for most people to donate as much as needed.

Some points:

I donate occasionly to prefered local reps but never via cell phone. Any political or social issue text i receive gets blocked and reported as spam. Never give your number to a candidate or cause. I can't always tell who is sending the request. I've been getting 5 a day asking to donate money to buy sign making smaterials for the No Kings Protest. Sure. Wasn't born yesterday.

Email solicitations go into a spam filter where i can view and delete them emass. I usually isn't worth unsubscribing since that just encorages them.

Don't blame the candidate due to the system. We will need a super majority to change the system and the billionaire class doesn't want it to change.
