Unskippable ad I keep getting threatening texts

I get these ALL the time. I’ve never donated to these “people.” Never supported them. Never voted for them. Nor has my wife. I received four of these today. All threats. Always a telling me it’s my last chance. These are some of the less malicious-sounding ones.

I’m not even sure they’re legitimately from those parties, though I wouldn’t put it past them.

So… report as spam. Report as spam. Report as spam.

It isn’t like it’s painful. Just pretty irritating.

I've occasionally received texts like this from the Trump campaign, and it's an interesting look into the psychology of the average Republican.

I mean they need the fear of eternal damnation just to make "moral" decisions. Kinda tells you all you need to know about a person if they need religion to direct their morality.
