They used a number of GOP tropes and language to try to get me to donate money (I listened instead of hanging up out of amusement, it was really obvious). I have no doubt they would have re-directed me to a phony donation site. Obviously not dumb enough to do that, but I wonder how many they fooled.

Yes, resorting to virtually stright up theft- utter desperation.
