Vast amount, sure. But that wasn't the premise of the statement responded to.
I've literally had to stop people from donating to TLP. They didn't know who they were and aren't the kind of people who are going to google it and read their "About Us" page to find out.
They simply like the ads and that's enough for them to want to help. That's a problem.
That article has 3 people in it. If you want, I can go find a few trans PoCs who support Trump, but that is a meaningless find since the data shows they're outliers.
I'm sorry your friends are dumb, but I stand by my point. Dem voters donate through ActBlue in the VAST majority of donations, and I don't think any of those funds have been sent to TLP (I don't know this for sure though).
It's wild to me that we've had so much hemming and hawwing over Bernie or Busters but these neocon rejects are treated like Cersei Lannister. They're all just whining Republicans who got pushed out and they wanna make mean ads over it. If you can show me that registered Democrats are donating large sums of money to these people, I'm all ears. Until then, I'm personally not going to be shaking in my shoes in fear of the awesome cunning of George Conway and Rick Wilson.
Could have but I also think this coming from Republicans makes it land a lot harder for the right wingers they're targeting. If it was the Dems it would just be more fake news and so on.
Yeah I'm surprised that so many people are in such a bubble on this. I'm from Mississippi. Talked to a shitload of conservatives most of my life. Any argument I make will always be followed up by "well of course a
democrat would say that." If I fed the same exact words through Charlie Baker, suburban "independent" people love it.
Part of partisanship being so strong these days is that non-partisans (mostly apolitical people) assume all partisans are lying to back their team. They don't want to hear a Dem talk about a republican "because obviously he's not their guy so they'll talk bad about him." It's fucking stupid and scream-inducing but that's who those people are
