Edited to say: I am not a Trump Supporter!!! I AM GETTING THIS SHIT EVERYDAY!! Edited again to say this is actually seriously stressing me out. I have received some Facebook ads like this too.
Radical Dems are continuing their IMPEACHMENT PLOT with baseless hearings! We need 243 patriots to defend Trump in the next 4 HOURS: [nrcc.news]

I was getting that garbage for a while, until I started posting comments demonstrating my loathing for 45 and his idiot supporters.
I pissed off a whole bunch of trumptards in the process.
Also reported the sites as engaging in spam and hate speech.
It's only been a couple of weeks, but it seems to have stopped.
So far.

Go, Democrats, GO!

Vote Republicans out of office!

I get a text like this every day! I have reported it as spam. I have gone into the link to try and unsubscribe. I mean, I am the last person in earth who would do anything to support this asshat. I am baffled.

They are desperate now. Just sending out emails to everyone, not just the usual morons. Have fun with them like I do and respond with witty remarks, and the facts of what trump is guilty of. I also fill out their forms with fake addresses and put a 0 in the column for how much I'm giving. I also report them as spam and that has slowed down their outreach. LOL

LOL! Very funny. I report at spam. I should try and text back just to see what happens!

@Gwendolyn2018 I like acting like I have a hearing problem.

Weird, I never get anything like this. Do you ever get information on locations of Republican events? Maybe we could cause a little mischief.

If you have ever registered for or voted republican, opened an account with certain banks, or taken out a loan, lived in a certain county, or even just frequent certain websites your name is probably in a number of databases that correlate data and have determined you to be a candidate for such targeted political ads.

It is your right to control this info, however doing so is difficult because it is distributed all over the place. Msg me if you want more info on how to do this.

Never voted for a Republican in my life. 😟

@GreatNani I voted republican back in early 80s in a local election when I was 18 or 19 but have been independent ever since.

But I started following my local republican reps on facebook and do sometimes take a look at what the other side is saying about stuff

But I fill out their polls with the opposite of what they want to hear

@Lucy_Fehr and I have followed some republicans because it is good to know what the other side thinks. This may be why they tracked me.

@GreatNani These data collection algorithms typically don't process hard data such as content and poll opinion because of how difficult that is and instead look at meta data such as who you have followed and how much interaction with them you have had.

If you want this kind of stuff to stop, you have to go to the root of the problem and remove it, but I feel like most people don't know their data Is being used or how valuable it is, and I especially don't think people understand what it means for democracy in general.

@Happy_Killbot I have no idea how to do that. I think it is scary and maybe be impossible to stop completely?

2

radical dems, yeah, they want you to think that NOT committing crimes and wanting the president also not to commit crimes is somehow radical.

where are you getting crap like that? very infrequently i get stuff like that by email and i reply, um, less than politely, shall we say?

g

Texted to me daily. I don't know how to stop it.

@GreatNani
Who is sending the texts?
I would think you could block them, if you can’t get them to stop sending those messages.

@Haemish1 the RNC. I can't block them because it is a different number every time they text. It is actually stressing me out.

@GreatNani Have you tried ignoring, deleting and moving right along?

@jlynn37 yes. I report as spam and delete. But it is actually really concerning that they are spamming people this way. I don't think they should be allowed to do that.

@GreatNani
File a complaint with your state attorney general and Secretary of State (if that’s who controls elections where you are). There are laws regarding this type of campaign behavior.

@Haemish1 that's a good idea. I live in DC. Have to figure that out.

@GreatNani
Good luck!

@GreatNani oops i didn't see the above comments; ag dot com scrolled right down to the end and i went back up. so i asked: who is doing this to you? there must be a way! if it's being texted, there should be a phone number you know from that. is it the same number every time? you could even call the police. it's harassment.

and some of what i asked got answered. i think @Haemish1 had an extremely useful answer.

d.c.! i used to work in d.c. and i graduated from the american university.

g

@genessa my daughter graduated from American. Small world.

@GreatNani teeny tiny 🙂)

do you live in town or in md or va? i lived in md and va but never in town, though i worked in town, including for the doj.

g

@genessa I live in DC now. We use to live in MD. I actually enjoy living in DC. Strange as that sounds.

@GreatNani it doesn't sound strange to me. i like living in certain cities and d.c. would've been an interesting place to live. i certainly saw enough of it to speculate that on an educated basis lol. are you old enough to remember the balloon man in georgetown? i think you might be too young by a decade but i will ask anyway!

g

@genessa No but I have only lived here a bit over 5 years. I grew up in NYC. So I am an urban girl for sure.

@GreatNani [washingtonpost.com] I couldn't find an audio of him but I found this article about him.

g

@genessa That was so interesting! I love stories like that!

@GreatNani i saw him sometimes in georgetown and heard his schtick on whfs. he had then most mellifluous voice!

Sounds like they are having a problem finding 243 tRump supporters. They better act quickly as that number is shrinking every minute. Scofflaws like this are not going to spoil our extreme schadenfreude.

1

I wonder if you might re-route it somehow, to one of those Nigerian scamsters?

Me too.

Good idea!!!

Maybe your internet service provider does not block your reported spam emails well enough.
I had problems with my previous ISP, and since switching ISP, I've had no repeat offender emails.

1

Does it say what will happen once they get the 243?

Money

@GreatNani figures

Defend a turncoat ? Why ?

1

BS. There is no defending a corrupt gangster.

She is not defending ANYONE .You must have bad reading comprehension

@godlessguy That’s what happens when you have TDS.LOL

@godlessguy thank you. Not

I started receiving emails from the teaparty. Near as I can figure, it had to do with my rantings against tRump on Facebook. I wrote the teaparty to cease and desist with their racist advertisements. It worked. I also started receiving snailmail from a ReThuglican Political Action Group. I also wrote them to cease and desist. Both stoppage requests worked.

What I can't figure out - is how I ever got them in the first place.

That's what I can't figure out. I mean, I truly am the last person ever to be a Trump supporter.

@GreatNani Get in line.

@OwlInASack And when oil companies are hit or their subsidy is taken away, prices will go up and people (mostly those with big SUV's and trucks) will scream like a stuck pig.

We all know that if we were talking about a Democrat pres. they would be there with their nooses. How can any half-way rational person believe someone who says he is innocent yet refuses to provide even the most basic evidence? To me, this is why a person should have to take a literacy test to vote.

People are nuts, uneducated and unable to think rationally.

Reply to the text that you are a ten year old girl and you can't vote yet... I did something similar and the texts stopped immediately...

Good idea!

Or, tell them you are an illegal alien and can't vote?

That would also work.... But it also might result in someone knocking on her door! 😋@PondartIncbendog

Tell them... they can Defend this...

Gotcha. I was surprised at first coming from you. Didn't fit at all

I should have made it clear. Explained before I pasted the text. It is just so horrifying I got discombobulated!

@GreatNani understand completely

@GreatNani Well, I hope you re-combobulated yourself by now.

@GreatNani Next time put quotation marks around the copied text

@PondartIncbendog LOL, well yes, I took Nyquil and slept for a solid 8 hours.

@PondartIncbendog, @Lucy_Fehr yes! Not sure why I didnt!

Irritating isn't it
