“Are you a proud American Citizen or does ICE need to come and track you down?” the email said.
Donald Trump’s administration has been using federal officers to go after undocumented immigrants, but now his political action committee is threatening to sic the agents on his own donors.
Earlier this week, Trump’s Never Surrender PAC sent out a fundraising email that had this provocative subject line: “Are you an illegal alien?”
“Your file says you’re a top MAGA patriot… But my records to my survey STILL say: RESPONSE PENDING. Don’t tell me, you’re an Illegal Alien?!? That cannot be true!” the message said, before adding, “This is your FINAL MOMENT to Prove me wrong … please. Are you a proud American Citizen or does ICE need to come and track you down?”
It’s always funny to me that these emails are always written from a first person pov… I guess they know their audience, and these idiots think there’s a real person on the other end talking to them
There is…
Boomer trump voters are actually reading them, and some staffer at least reads what chagpt spits out.
People always think Republicans are bad at messaging for some reason, but they’ve been exploiting psychology for decades.
This shit works on trump voters, but its not going to work on everyone.
Like, there’s actual physical differences in the brains between left and right political voters. It’s why neoliberals trying to use Republican strategy never works well. If it worked on Dem voters we wouldn’t be Dem voters.
At election time I get emails from democrat candidates in my spam folder. They’re also first-person.
I’m aware that some politicians with a D by their name think and act like Republicans and assume everyone else does as well.
That was the whole neoliberalism thing in the 80s when “moderate” Republicans took over the Dem party
That “experiment” ended last year and we’ll get a fair primary again btw. There’s still some shitty neoliberals in office, but we’ve never had a better opportunity to replace them then these next two primaries
Doubtful. They’re addicted to money.
The neoliberals are, but they lost control of the party a year ago…
Who told you that, an ivy league suit?
It’s all by design…they know that anyone who is dumb enough to believe that Trump wrote the email himself is also dumb enough to believe its content and donate.
I mean, they’ve already believed everything else they hear from their dear leader, so is this email actually surprising? It’s nothing in the face of nearly a decade’s worth of bullshit they’ve been happily scarfing down and voting in approval of.
