PSA: Don't donate to the Democratic Party

I donated a little over $100 to ActBlue in 2016 meant for Bernie. it was in small inrecmental amounts over the course of the year, but they had incentive for pledging a certain amount, like $15 for bumper stickers. I donated at least that amount on 4 different occasions, but never received any bumper stickers. Fast forward to when the DNC nominated another, I forgot about the bumper stickers but was able to get a portion of my donations back through paypal reversal complaining that I was never sent what was advertised. Due to the cut-off point of refunds (90 days I think), I was only able to get maybe $75 of my donations back. Some weeks later, the 4 sets of bumper stickers did finally arrive, when they were completely useless.

Long story short: I got Berned for all the wrong reasons, and I can't really afford to donate this time around. Sucks, but I still hope for the best.
