I’ve just read yet another article on how the Harris campaign is literally begging for money, For example: “With Trump nominating MAGA loyalists right and left, there is nothing more important than making sure we can fight back and hold him accountable” or “you haven’t donated to the Harris Fight Fund program yet “ or “even a quick donation of $50 is enough to help us in this fight” or “Please don’t click away”.
I’d be much more likely to donate if the email or text said “we still have bills to pay and would like your help” instead of continuing this or that or the other. There really *isn’t* much we can do at this point in terms of the Mango Messiah because he quite firmly won the election (and the fact that he won the popular vote, too, makes me gag).
Speaking of bills to pay, it bugs the sh*t out of me to find out that she had to PAY celebrities to come to her rallies because they wouldn’t support her without the money. That’s just pitiful. She is a multiracial female candidate, but they had to pay ridiculous amounts of money for celebrities to show up on the stage for her. I was really disillusioned when I found that out. The race was tight versus DonOld who had and has a gigantic MAGA pool of donors to pull from, but the celebrities couldn’t be bothered to come to join her without getting ridiculous amounts of cold, hard cash. That’s just … I actually can’t find a description at the moment. I was completely and totally disgusted when I found this out.
This article from CNN shows that there is a lot of waffling around about what she’s going to do next – run for governor of California? Wait and run for President again? (I wish she would because we now know what went wrong and the Orangutan is going to fu*k up the state of this country so badly that it’s going to take a LOT of work to get it back to any sort of stability.)
But she needs to decide NOW so the country can see how she can bounce back and keep fighting the good fight. She has more or less disappeared from sight and that’s not good. Time to get over the hurt feelings and/or outrage and/or frustration and come back better!!!!!!!!!
Rant over. Hope y’all enjoyed all the topic changes.
I haven’t found any evidence about Kamala paying celebs to come out for her; can you give me some sources please Susan?
And methinks the fundraising must continue, to fuel the campaigns for the ’26 mid-terms. We all bemoan the awful fact of Trumpler’s re-election; but resistance to his regime is vital and will cost money.
I also have not heard of any of the celebrities being paid to support Kamala & certainly none of the supporters were paid.
On the other hand, the only one who had to pay for supporters to even come to his ralleys was DON THE CON. There were many & numerous admissions of that fact by the supporters themselves. They were paid to come to ralleys & required to stay at least an hour before leaving, which is why we saw so many of them leaving an hour into the ralleys.
DON THE CON surrounded himself with billionaires like Musk, etc. (not to mention the support he has always gotten from his comrade, Vlad Putin. It is my firm belief that these billionaires like Musk, who was supposedly running the canvassing campaign… had those canvassers offer money to financially destitute voters for their votes. There is no other explanation for DON THE CON’S surprise win over Kamala, when her campaign was so strong while his was a pitiful spectacle at the end.
Sharpton $500K for interview; Beyounce $165K. A group of pastors has insisted MSNBC suspend him but he keeps showing up on Morning Joe and DeadlineWhiteHouse.
Sources please. That’s the basic tenet of journalism and of informed comment. If your source is Fux News/OAN/Newsmax don’t bother.
Exactly!
I don’t believe either Rev Al Sharpton or Beyonce had to be paid anything to support Kamala’s campaign. They were both 100% behind her run for President.
You should try getting your information from a reliable source, rather than a right-wing Propaganda, Lies & Bullshit network or site.
PS. I really dislike the shit photo you ran of Kamala. Surely a better pic would have been more appropriate.
I guess that depends on the author’s agenda.
I agree…. they should have used a better & more beautiful picture of Kamala.
A quickie online browse found this: “Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign clarified that they did not pay celebrities for endorsements, despite organising numerous concerts featuring prominent artists. Campaign officials said that while thy covered performance-related expenses as per FEC regulations, no fees were paid to celebrities for their support. Oprah Winfrey, who hosted a virtual town hall for Harris, also denied receiving personal payment.”
Very seldom is there a campaign, especially a national one, which isn’t left with bills to pay Anyone with an interest in politics should be aware of that. As a result, it is often necessary to continue to fundraise for a while after the election – win or lose.
Apparently Adam Frisch ran one in Colorado – he discontinued my monthly donation before I even got around to contacting the campaign to ask how the bills were going. I was totally gobsmacked. I’ve never seen anything like that happening, and I’m 79.
Kamala’s campaign raised a lot of money in a very short time. They also spent a lot of money, because they only had a very short time. I’m sure they have unpaid bills.
Speaking of UNPAID BILLS. DON THE CON still has outstanding bills from his 2016 campaign, racked up more in 2020 that are still unpaid. I heard stories during this past campaign that a number of cities where DON THE CON still owed money from previous events were unwilling to allow him to ralley in their city unless he paid outstanding bills.
DON THE CON is a deadbeat & just like his last regime, the next 4 years will consist of another CRIME SPREE as he & his billionaire cabinet drain the coffers dry, rob Social Security, Medicare & every other government fund meant to help ordinary Americans.
