The predatory behavior of both parties in regards to badgering massive campaign donations from elderly people and dementia patients

The dems have a paid machine doing this for decades, while perhaps there’s a case of a republican doing it.

BUt the fake news makes it look like they are the same. If you haven’t learned you can’t trust CNN since Trump was elected, it seems you can’t learn…

Just promise me if he starts attempting to help some Nigerian Prince launder money he stole from the government, you put a stop to it.

Or if he starts trying to send gift cards to some stranger to help bail your grandson out of jail, you at least get the grandson in question on the phone to convince your father it’s a scam.

Are we good?

no, I said what difference does it make if greedy, entitled children happen to think its bat ■■■■ crazy.

I said nothing about dementia, or a diagnosis of dementia.

If my Dad gets that bad, he’ll be in my house. For his safety, not his money.

You clearly said it didn’t matter if the parents had dementia, the kids should not worry about it.

It’s right here:

Plain as day.

And if he answers the phone while you are at work and sends some scammer $50K?

No problem, right? His money to give?

no, whats plain as day is I did not mention dementia, no matter how many times you want to say I did.

what I said was this

they “think” they have dementia and use it as an excuse. They think it because it benefits themselves. Your kids claiming you have dementia is not enough. Them disagreeing with how you squander your money is not enough. An actual diagnoses of dementia is a different matter entirely and if the kids aren’t willing to take their dementia addled parent(s) into their own home to care for them as they fade… ■■■■ them and ■■■■ what they think of how the money gets spent. They have no right to complain if they’re not willing to pay the freight. If they are unwilling to care for them, the only thing they’re complaining about is squandering an inheritance.

yeah, his money to give. I’m not entitled to ■■■■■ That said, if I’m caring for him in my home, I’d also be managing his finances for his benefit and happiness. If he wants to give money to the church, then I’ll give it to the church. If he wants to donate to Kamala Harris, I’ll do that. It’s his money. Would I speak to him about his finances? Yes I would, but I would not stop him from spending his own money as he sees fit.

You answer a question about whether your father had dementia by saying it didn’t matter. It’s his money.

It’s all there. Plain as day.

Let’s start over.

Should people let their family members with dementia give their money to political fund raisers? Yes or no.

depends. are they living with family members who care for them? If so, can they afford it?

if the family members are not willing to take them in and care for them, none of their damned business.

Afford what? To give money to a cause they can’t possibly understand?

That would be Democrats. :woman_shrugging:

lol… now you determine what other people understand? no

Dude, you are arguing to argue.

Your dad should do whatever he wants with his money.

If - god forbid - he gets dementia, IMO you should take steps to make sure he doesn’t give money to causes he doesn’t understand.

YMMV. Hooray for preying on dementia folks?

Have you ever had a family namer with dementia?

We’re dealing with universal laws of physics here.

nope. Grandmother got a little forgetful, thats about it

Awesome. It’s awful.

So you don’t know what you are talking about, calling kids keeping their dementia ridden folks from giving money away to scammers.

Also, not all kids are money-crazed vultures looking to scam their own parents.

Why are you commenting on greedy predatory children of wealthy parents. Is there something in the OP or the OP article about that? Or are we just taking dumps on the floor.
