Hilarious. Trump campaign spent the day bragging about a union with 47K members endorsing him based on a DailyMail article, but DailyMail missed that the group is essentially a scam.
Here are some quotes from former board members for this group who only it’s essentially just a scam “to support Matt Coday’s bad habits”
Turned out they just had a mailing list with 47K people from other sources.
Their membership revenue was under 4K in 2021 and just above 50K in 2022. Which means they, at max, had less than 1K people paying their 60 USD annual dues.
Btw if you want to understand how this works, check out the time stamps in the first tweet.
The reporter behind the article, who clearly didn’t vet the group at all after being fed the story, tweets first link at 1:33. Every Trump account coincidentally tweets it within 15 min.

Press accused Romney of murdering a woman with cancer, hating the poor for tax analysis, hating women because he had a binder with resumes, wanting to steal from old people, being racist etc etc
These guys are just as disconnected form reality as the OnlyTrump defenders.
Are we really going to have to pull up receipts….
Remember when the press accused Romney of being racist because he referred to Obama as “angry”?
Remember when The Day Beasts Michael Tomasky referred to Romney as a “race-mongering pyromaniac” because he used the term “Obamacare” during a speech?
She’s endorsing Trump while lecturing about how the government (= the Trump admin) forced lockdowns on people and then inferring DeSantis went along with it when he did the exact opposite.
Alternate reality.
“Where were they when the pandemic was raging? When leaders were taking away people’s Constitutional rights”
Well let’s check where was the guy she’s endorsing:
Here is the video Trump’s own team was posting on here in mid-2020 to show where he was and how hard he fought these things she now claims are evidence of poor leadership while endorsing Trump…
One of my favorite quotes from Vivek Ramaswamy's book is below, but he would never repeat it now. That book was about truth-telling, but VivekGPT 2.0 is just an empty sales pitch without a working product.
I thought we were done with this, but it's clear that some people are determined to revive these false claims. The numbers were random extrapolations that the Trump team tried to use and GA investigators looked into every one of them.
Let's go through each of them one last time.
Claim 1: 2056 Felons Voted in Georgia in 2020.
Reality: GA investigators initially found 74 potential cases. After reviewing, they found 4 were actual cases where felons voted and charges were filed accordingly.
Claim 2: 66,248 people under 18 voted in GA in 2020.
Reality: 0 people under 18 voted in GA in 2020. There were 4 cases where people requested absentee ballots before they turned 18, but they turned 18 before Election Day.
How many Trump supporters are these people going to encourage to destroy their lives and end up at jail just because Trump couldn’t accept the results of the last election?
The influencers who talk like this aren’t the ones that end up in jail. It’s the people who believe them.
I saw people upset over the fake MI electors being charged yesterday because they were elderly. You’re right. The people that should be facing consequences are those that convinced those elderly people to engage in obviously illegal fraud bc Trump couldn’t accept his loss.
Trump and allies stole hundreds of millions of dollars from similar people for “Stop the Steal”, they had thousands ruin their lives on Jan 6th, and w other post-election actions. And now they continue to manipulate those people on behalf of this one politician. It’s sick.
One issue I have with some pro-DeSantis people, including people I generally like, is they spend way too much time engaging with people who clearly have an agenda and are acting in bad faith as if they will convince those people if they just point out the truth to them.
If someone has created an entire business model around lying to their audience, trying to engage with them honestly is pointless. Their entire value proposition assumes being dishonest. So you can either ignore or mock them, but trying to constantly correct them won't help.
The problem is the people you're dealing with are never going to run out of lies so you end up spending all of your time on defense & most ppl become too uninterested to figure out who is lying. It's intentional.
