If you are a supporter of President Trump and Republicans, you have likely been getting multiple text messages every day asking for money from the NRCC.
Conservative blogger Kurt Schlichter reached out to them on Twitter to criticize the tone of the messages that have been coming through lately, asking them to “stop.”
Hey @NRCC – WTF is wrong with you?

The response from the NRCC was that the text raised “$198,021 toward electing conservatives to Congress. But we’ll certainly pass your complaints on to our manager, Karen.”
Tucker Carlson saw the tweet and asked if “Anyone know why the NRCC is using ethnic slurs?” Many believe the term to be a slur against white women and Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot had recently used it against White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany.

Pro-Trump Twitter user Chief “Groyper” Carlson believes they used the slur “Because the NRCC are filled with Con Inc swamp creatures who are America Last.”

NRCC Deputy Communications Director Bob Salera responded to another tweet by Schlicter that accused him of “crying on Twitter” and saying that he could put his energy to “help get some conservatives elected.”
Hey Kurt – our digital fundraising operation has broken every fundraising record this cycle. Maybe instead of crying about tone on Twitter you could help get some conservatives elected? https://t.co/hzfNnx6muR

Schlicter then provided a list of candidates who are running for Congress that he encouraged people to donate to directly, Sean Parnell, Jim Bognet, and Mike Garcia.
