Illegal Ongoing Trump Campaign Contacts

In the past 36 hours, I have received both a text and phone call from the Trump Campaign. I have a cell phone and have been on the Do Not Call List for over 20 years, so my status is documented literally over decades. The call last night connected me directly to the audio for the Trump Rally then being held. These calls are illegal under US law. I confirmed that the numbers the contacts came from were in service by the campaign, and have filed formal complaints with the Federal Communications Commission this morning. Nothing will happen, of course, since Trump and his Cult believe they are above the law, but at least this illegality is on record.

Thanks for going on record, but keep in mind, Trumpists are just fine with, anything otherwise illegal is just fine if it's in service to Trump.

If Trump wins, even unenforced laws like this might be enforced only against his enemies, but more likely, they'll just be scrapped along with your report, unless it's to keep track of undesirables, aka, non Trumpists.

@MistyCee I considered not filing anything, because then there is a public record, but I think it is important to document wrongdoing even if nothing comes of it. And I'm sure I'm not the only one this has happened to or will happen to. If only 1% of those people file a complaint, or 0.1%, that could still be a sizeable number and something that will stick out to the FCC.

I don't expect anything to come of it, which has been my experience in the past, but that's in my view a poor excuse for excusing illegality on the part of the Trump Campaign.

@windinhishair I applaud you. But I just dumped the landline and kicked up the spam blocking on my cell.
