Of course, teabaggers (

Trump’s campaign team created an online mechanism designed to automatically double a person’s donation and make that payment recurring.
Facing a cash crunch and getting badly outspent by the Democrats, the campaign had begun last September to set up recurring donations by default for online donors, for every week until the election.
Contributors had to wade through a fine-print disclaimer and manually uncheck a box to opt out. As the election neared, the Trump team made that disclaimer increasingly opaque, an investigation by The New York Times showed.
It introduced a second prechecked box, known internally as a “money bomb,” that doubled a person’s contribution. Eventually its solicitations featured lines of text in bold and capital letters that overwhelmed the opt-out language.
On August 20, 2020, Steve Bannon, 67, and three others were charged with conspiracy to commit money laundering and wire fraud. Federal prosecutors of the US Attorney’s Office of New York allege that Bannon and two other defendants used funds received from the 'We Build the Wall' fundraising campaign, in a way that seemed inconsistent with how they were marketed for use to the public.
Bannon is accused of taking at least $1 million and prosecutors also say the fundraising campaign “funneled hundreds of thousands of dollars” to Brian Kolfage, the founder of the campaign and one of the other people named in the indictment. The indictment accuses Bannon and Kolfage of taking at least a combined $1.35 million of the $25 million raised to crowdfund the border wall and accuses Timothy Shea and Andrew Badolato of helping to cover up the scheme.
Then, teabaggers STILL defend and support a lying, retard.

"In June of 1775, the Continental Congress created a unified Army out of the Revolutionary Forces encamped around Boston and New York, and named after the great George Washington, commander in chief," Trump said during his address Thursday.
"Our Army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts, it took over the airports, it did everything it had to do, and at Fort McHenry, under the rocket's red glare it had nothing but victory."
Then, of course, NOTHING is EVER his fault.
"I do the speech very well, so I was able to do it without a teleprompter, but the teleprompter did go out," Trump said. "But despite the rain, that was just a fantastic evening."
