Donald Trump Campaign Accused of Spamming People With Unsolicited Emails

Former President Donald Trump's campaign has been accused of spamming people with unsolicited campaign emails through third parties ahead of the 2024 election, including individuals from foreign countries who cannot vote.

Some people told Newsweek about receiving "annoying" emails advancing the presumptive Republican nominee's campaign, with one claiming they had been unable to unsubscribe from them.

There was no suggestion that the email activity is a breach of electoral rules. Email lists are often sold or rented to federal candidate campaigns and PACs for solicitation purposes. However, one company sending the emails may be breaching its terms of service by allegedly not allowing a user to unsubscribe. The email activity sheds light on how Trump's team is aiming to reach potential voters.

In response to Newsweek's request for comment, a Trump spokesperson requested screenshots or email addresses of people complaining about receiving unsolicited emails to check if the complainants previously signed up to receive correspondence manually. Newsweek did not comply with the request.

Former President Trump in a new interview with Time magazine did not shut down the potential for political violence after November’s election if he doesn’t win, saying “it depends” on the fairness of the vote.

Trump spoke at length with Time magazine about his plans for a second term should he win November’s election. Asked if he was worried about the prospect of political violence in connection with the November election, Trump said he did not think there would be any.

“I think we’re gonna have a big victory. And I think there will be no violence,” Trump said.

But in a follow-up interview conducted several days later, the outlet asked Trump what would happen if he did not win November’s election, and the former president was less committal.

“Well, I do think we’re gonna win. We’re way ahead. I don’t think they’ll be able to do the things that they did the last time, which were horrible. Absolutely horrible,” Trump said, an allusion to his repeated claims of widespread fraud in the 2020 election that have been debunked or thrown out by the courts.

“But I don’t think we’re going to have that. I think we’re going to win,” Trump continued. “And if we don’t win, you know, it depends. It always depends on the fairness of an election. I don’t believe they’ll be able to do the things that they did the last time. I don’t think they’ll be able to get away with it. And if that’s the case, we’re gonna win in record-setting fashion.”

What emerged in two interviews with Trump, and conversations with more than a dozen of his closest advisers and confidants, were the outlines of an imperial presidency that would reshape America and its role in the world. To carry out a deportation operation designed to remove more than 11 million people from the country, Trump told me, he would be willing to build migrant detention camps and deploy the U.S. military, both at the border and inland. He would let red states monitor women’s pregnancies and prosecute those who violate abortion bans. He would, at his personal discretion, withhold funds appropriated by Congress, according to top advisers. He would be willing to fire a U.S. Attorney who doesn’t carry out his order to prosecute someone, breaking with a tradition of independent law enforcement that dates from America’s founding. He is weighing pardons for every one of his supporters accused of attacking the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, more than 800 of whom have pleaded guilty or been convicted by a jury. He might not come to the aid of an attacked ally in Europe or Asia if he felt that country wasn’t paying enough for its own defense. He would gut the U.S. civil service, deploy the National Guard to American cities as he sees fit, close the White House pandemic-preparedness office, and staff his Administration with acolytes who back his false assertion that the 2020 election was stolen.

Trump compares Biden administration to the ‘Gestapo’ during donor retreat

Jack Birle, Washington Examiner

Former President Donald Trump took his war of words against his election opponent, President Joe Biden, to a new level on Saturday, reportedly comparing his opponent's administration to the "Gestapo."

Trump made the comparison between the Biden administration and the secret police in Nazi Germany during a private donor event at Mar-a-Lago on Saturday, according to multiple reports citing audio from the event.

“These people are running a Gestapo administration,” Trump said, according to NBC News. “And it’s the only thing they have. And it’s the only way they’re going to win in their opinion.”

The former president has been fiery in his criticism of the Biden administration, as he faces four separate criminal cases — two of them in federal court. The White House has maintained that it was not involved in any of the indictments, despite Trump's accusations.

“Once I got indicted, I said, well, now the gloves have to come off,” Trump said, per the outlet, also adding that Biden is "the worst president in the history of our country."

"He’s grossly incompetent. He’s crooked as hell. He’s the Manchurian candidate, he accepts massive amounts of money from China, from Russia, from Ukraine and many other countries. He’s a crook," Trump added.

Biden campaign spokesperson James Singer slammed Trump's "insulting comments," in a statement on Sunday.

“Trump is once again making despicable and insulting comments about the Holocaust, while in the same breath attacking law enforcement, celebrating political violence, and threatening our democracy," Singer said.

Clyburn hits out at Trump over Gestapo comment: ‘Incredible but not surprising’
Democrat says country is going off track after Trump compares Biden administration to Germany’s fascist secret police

The senior congressional Democrat James Clyburn has responded to remarks made by Donald Trump at a private event on Saturday in which he compared the Biden administration with the Gestapo secret police in fascist Germany, saying it was “incredible, but it’s not surprising”.

The 83-year-old South Carolina Democrat added that Trump “is given to hyperbole on every subject that he ever approaches … The country got off track after that 1876 election and we are approaching the same kinds of elements today.”

The 1876 election between Republican Ohio governor Rutherford Hayes and Democrat Samuel Tilden was one of the most disputed ever, with widespread allegations of electoral fraud, violence and voter disenfranchisement.

Clyburn accused Trump of having an “understanding of this country that I thought we left behind more than 100 years ago. But as I watch things happen in the country today, I’ve been harkening back for some time now, to the 1876 presidential election, and how this country got off track after the civil war.”

He added: “The words are different. But the meanings are the same.”

The MN GOP just announced today that Donald Trump’s campaign believes that MN is in play and he will now be the keynote speaker at their Lincoln Day dinner on May 17. But that also happens to be the same night as Barron’s graduation.

Former President Donald Trump will keynote the Republican Party of Minnesota’s annual Lincoln Reagan Dinner on May 17 at St. Paul’s RiverCentre.

State GOP Chairman David Hann says there are indications from the Trump campaign that they consider Minnesota a battleground state. He states the polling is “very, very close, within the margin of error.”

Trump has vowed to win Minnesota this fall. In March he said “I thought we won it last time, I’ll be honest, and I think we did win it.”

Democratic Party Chairman Ken Martin says Minnesota voters have repeatedly rejected Trump and his efforts to ban abortion, take away their health insurance, and attack democracy.
