Grifters gonna grift Florida Republican dupes seniors with Trump-, DeSantis-themed emails Erick Aguilar is not Donald Trump or Ron DeSantis. He just wants you to think he is. In his pursuit of Florida’s 4th Congressional District, Aguilar has used WinRed, a popular platform Republicans employ to process campaign contributions, to send a flurry of fundraising emails. But the solicitations did not mention Aguilar’s campaign or his leading competitor in the Aug. 23 primary, state Sen. Aaron Bean, who has the support of much of the state’s GOP establishment. Instead, the messages were written in a way that suggested donations would actually go toward more prominent GOP politicians, including the former president, the governor or Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan. “Governor DeSantis is always fighting back against Corrupt Left,” read one email that came under a logo using DeSantis’ name. “No matter how bad this country is the Fake News media and Biden Admin are OBSESSED with that [sic] Florida is doing.”
A fool and his money are soon parted. Any person, elderly or otherwise, who cannot read and figure out who he or she is donating to but donates anyway, deserves to be duped.
The use of "the corrupt left" and "the fake new media" hardly encourages discussion and compromise. Both sides are guilty of it to one extent or another.
