This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Bobbie Jo (a host of the 2016 Postmortem forum).
Just post this in a protected group where Sanders supporters are accused of being liars. This was in response to a call for Clinton donations.
" I'm maxed out too but
I'm getting donations from my republican neighbors (I am surrounded by them) by saying, "if Bernie gets in, you'll be paying 90% in taxes so make sure Clinton wins" hahahahahahaha"
And if this costs me a hide then this board is worthless. This may be the most unethical post I have ever seen, plus the poster came back on amnesty and carries 10 hides...

(93,532 posts)... the jury system here is broke and I'm glad they're going to fix it.

(8,976 posts)if the original poster supports what he did he should tell us under which neighbors name he is making donations...not that that would be a federal felony or anything....
