Scam Alert: Donald Trump’s Website Won’t Let You Cancel Recurring Donations

Just like his Trump University, his investments in Atlantic City, his acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention, and basically his entire presidential campaign, it turns out that Donald Trump’s campaign website looks like just another scam.

On Wednesday, CNN reporter Jeremy Diamond sent out this tweet noting that a supporter of Trump had emailed him to say that he couldn’t cancel his recurring contribution on Trump’s official campaign site.

On Thursday, Mic confirmed that, no, there is no button to undo your recurring payment to the Trump campaign. You can’t delete the recurring payment. You can’t even delete your credit card information (you can update it, but it has to be with a different valid card number). So you just keep paying Trump’s campaign, we suppose, until the end of time.

That damn Trump!... Why, next thing you know, he'll be gleefully enjoying the spectacle of allowing his soldiers and diplomats to be butchered and dragged through the streets of Benghazi

nobody cares about such a trivial little glitch that will soon be fixed.

They should just give Don the title and save the hassle of the rest of the election process. It is like a person saying they like their arm being broken rather than getting it patched up so it works as good as new. The longer something goes on the more comfortable people get with it, right or wrong is not important to that part of the programming, acceptance is the issue at that stage. A lie needs the people to be led along each step of the way. True facts involves a headline and the rest is figured out "in house" and the conclusions should all be the same.
