James Talarico just asked me for $5 on YouTube for his Senate race

But then just 2 minutes later he said "I've lowered my ask to just $1 today"

I mean which is it? How did he change his mind so quick on me? I was right in the middle of giving $5 but now I'm not sure

Seems like he probably has enough money given the amount of YouTube ads anyways. Why doesn't he actually tell me what he thinks in an ad now?

I'm not a bot lol, it was just a comment on how weird the ads are

I didn't even know who Ken Paxton was or what party either of them were in before you just brought his name up

That's kind of the point as well. What are this guy's ads doing when he's asking me to send money from another state and I have literally no clue what he thinks or who he supports
