Not kidding actually. While the mere concept is disgusting there's just way too much money waiting on the ground for me to ignore the concept.
Many years ago I worked as a commissioned employee to a long since defunct fringe GOP enterprise. NONE of the money went to the party at all. Made a decent living for a couple years and even helped put my first wife through college.
Well that same kind of dough is just sitting there waiting to be picked up. I can see boiler rooms from sea to shining sea pitching "Stop Hillary" on the phone. Then giving half the money to the phone solicitor and the other half to the Sierra Club.
Just mention Hillary Clinton and these knuckle dragging cretins will open their wallets fast.
As described I admit the concept is probably a criminal scam, but a darn good idea. There might be a way to mildly buffer the enterprise to make it legal. Things like sending a pittance to the GOP while pocketing the difference.
Anyway back in the Late 1970's this is what i did. Oddly telephone solicitors are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Forget about what you've heard. We had grandmas, college students, hot chix with piercings and ordinary middle class types looking for night work.
I had a lot of freaky wing nut clients on my sucker list. It's not for the faint of heart. Sort of the desperate job you take after getting out of alcohol rehab. In my case I was just an out of work musician. My boss allowed me to drink beer on the job. I sold more that way. Paid well enough too. One guy I called would sit and rail against Blacks, Gays, Latinos, Chinese for twenty full minutes. Then he'd give me his credit card number and I'd make about a hundred bucks for the call. Not bad cake for 1980.
And it's just a waitin' to be pilfered right now. I say it's a great way to create JOBS, develop speaking and other work skills while keeping hard cash AWAY from the real GOP candidates.
Wish i was still doing it at times...
