On several of the games I’ve downloaded from Google Play, I get periodic ads from his Orangetude’s reelection committee asking for donations or responses to “Official Survey” questions about his stoopit wall.

It’s like a virus…

It’s been sent to one of my email addresses that receives nothing but spam. According to the title it’s an offer for something. I don’t care to investigate.

That’s nothing new. Spammers use Obama and Mrs. Obama’s names, Vice President Biden, etc. They use Mueller’s name as well.
