the RNC is doing a little phone soliciting this labor day night

sounded like a white guy (no surprise there)

asked to speak to my deceased mother (who has been gone nearly ten years and was a lifelong democrat. i'm guessing he got the name and number from some other call list. let's see... she was a member of aarp, the humane society, and, oh yes, she used to donate money to this scamy police fundraiser shit.)

when i asked who was calling, he assumed i was her and launched into his deal:

"do you think the country is headed in the right direction and will you support pResident trump in his reelection campaign?"




this is how desperate the rnc is? cranking up their phone room and calling people at nine o'clock at night on LABOR DAY?

they know they're fucked.

good!

Begging me to aid Orange Julius and the Republicans against liberals and “the corrupt left-Wing media”. I kept replying “Nyet” and the stupid-&@$$ program treated my answers as affirmatives.

In solidarity with the Russian people and their suffering during World War II (Even if I’m not fond of the guys in the Kremlin) I’m going to skip the German references.

Also asked to speak to family member deceased over nine years.

I didn't listen to the spiel; just said "you have the wrong number" and " don't call back again".
Sunday evening of Labor Day weekend...
