Researchers' findings that the majority of Republican candidates' fundraising emails went to a spam folder in the Gmail accounts owned by Google, while Democrat candidates' emails were delivered, were "horrifying to see," Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel told Newsmax Wednesday, following a filing to the Federal Election Commission about the issue.
"These researchers in North Carolina, nonpartisan researchers, said that with the Republican Party and campaign emails 70% of them, went to spam," McDaniel said on Newsmax's "Wake Up America." "For Democrats, less than 10% went to spam, so we've done some number calculation over since 2019 that would cost Republican candidates in the over $2 billion in donations, not to mention all the get-out-the-vote and other things that are important with these emails."

GQP spams more. It's that simple. Also those that receive the emails dont know to configure their email clients/settings. You know, the old folks.
Who the F whats political email anyway?



perhaps the GQP can get their new love interest, Musk, to buy g00gle and spam all librulezzzz!

Oh, yes, this 85-year-old barely knows how to click on my g-mail, let alone "configure" any settings.

Young people today have no idea of how important the post office was or how dominant print newspapers were or how amazed we were by VCRs or how we had to look for a public telephone to use.

More evidence of Big Tech election interference.

Back in the day democrat operatives used to steal yard signs, now they misplace emails. *oops*

So much for their phony claims for upholding "Democracy".... The two faces of Democrats.

Could it be because they pulled this?

No, it's evidence that the GOP's fundraising emails are spam.

Google's algorithms for detecting spam depend largely on the behavior of the users. The GOP's emails are more obnoxious, so more people mark them as spam.

So the solution, I assume, is for Elon Musk to buy Google so he can prevent users from sending RNC fundraising emails to the spam folder. Or, since that’s probably a little too complex, to end the spam folder altogether.

Pretty much. All this means is that people are putting these emails in the spam folder en masse and googles software is being trained by that.

This is likely true of almost all political newsletters.

Why is no one looking into how Elon Musk was able to transition from sleeping at the YMCA to becoming the world’s richest man in twenty years?

Bezos, Gates. Zuckerberg and the guys at Google, PayPal and others had an idea or a product/service.



There is a story that is being missed.


Oh, and there is something wrong with Scaramucci ‘s story as well…..:unsure:

That’s a bi-partisan exercise around here.

I guess building a reusable rocket, going back into space, creating the first commercially viable battery farm, and transforming the auto industry don‘t count.

Oh, and Musk made his first fortune off of PayPal.

Certainly was/is a meteoric rise, wouldn’t you agree?

Attacking social media has been a popular theme for the reactionary trump right wing.

They always respond to the instructions they receive from the noise machine.

Trump told them not to trust media other than the media he endorsed and appeared on.

He told them to abandon FB and other platforms and rush to dodgy sites like 8chan, Parlar and Telegram, where the bigotry fear and hate go unchecked aznd unquestioned.

And this is NewsMax, an organization that never had a shred of credibility to begin with.

So, it’s not surprising that the GOP would float a new attack on a major platform through a joke right wing site.

The dot com bubble created a lot of suddenly new rich people (setting aside all the losers from that time).

Am I the only one who is noticing that Republicans are for some reason completely technologically retarded? The GOP always seems like they're still mystified that the clock is blinking on their VCR. I'm sure they'll just blame that on some left wing conspiracy.
