The Trump campaign is telling down-ballot candidates who use his name, image and likeness in fundraising appeals to pony up at least 5% of the proceeds to the Big Guy.

“Beginning tomorrow, we ask that all candidates and committees who choose to use President Trump’s name, image, and likeness split a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC. This includes but is not limited to sending to the house file, prospecting vendors, and advertising...”

Better pony up more than that 5% though, because the Big Guy will be watching you and a bigger contribution “will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump’s campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”

Has everyone is the republican party become a complete moron?

Oh wait.

The priest will report to the Cardinal, the Cardinal to the Bishop, the Bishop to the Pope. Your tithe is required to be 5%, a number which may be increased in the future.

Hey, it worked for religion, and this is most assuredly a cult, so why not?

- claims trump endorses them (but not on record @ballotpedia)
- claims the rival is a RINO and\or a democrat plant
- claims the rival did not vote for trump
- has every commercial with them gladhanding with trump
- posts rivals with biden deepfakes

It's a cult. Like the Bagwan of a few decades ago, or even the Mormons or Scientology. Pay-up. The more you pay, the better your chances of achieving [insert BS promise here].

Before it was just wildly ignorant politics. But now it's crossed into cult territory.
