I got a phone call last week from the national Republican Committee. They wanted me to rejoin the RNC and pay my “renewal dues” (I.e. fundraising). The woman hesitatingly launched into her spiel, invoking the names of Josh Hawley, Rand Paul and Ted Cruz (not Mitch McConnell). From her tone, I could tell she’d been having a rough time with previous calls. I was polite, but firm in expressing my irritation and frustration with the RNC. Something to the effect that they had so many chances and did nothing. And they didn’t stand by Trump when he needed them the most (but he sure helped them!). And I asked to be taken off their call list.

Kind of sad, since I’ve been a lifelong Republican. But now I’m just tired of their lies and being used by their national organization as just a dollar or vote source.
