I have identified an issue that will make it harder to raise money for this campaign. There are no doubt many millions of avid supporters of President Trump who would not make a donation to this campaign ... because they think such campaign will embarrass our president. Of course, President Trump is on record as saying he thinks the vaccines "saved millions of lives."

These clot pictures don't exactly jibe with a life-saving miracle vaccine.

So you'd really have to just market your fund-raising campaign to people who care more about stopping the shots and saving lives than they do about "not embarrassing President Trump." In other words, millions of MAGA supporters probably won't contribute (even though they also think the shots are very dangerous and need to be stopped as quickly as possible).

As Laura Kasner and Tom Haviland recently reported, Tucker Carlson knows all about these white fibrous clots. Tom even gave Tucker several vials of actual clots.

Still, there is no indication Tucker is going to cover this topic on any future podcasts. The reason is probably the same - he thinks this issue would embarrass his friend President Trump.

I actually wonder if President Trump knows about these things. Surely he does. What does he think about them and what's causing them? Someone needs to ask him.

The move from the Idea Phase to the Execution Phase would require a team of grassroots volunteers with expertise in specific areas. For example, it seems a legal non-profit would need to quickly be created as well as creating the best-possible fund-raising website.

Substack’s “contrarian” readers no doubt include many people who could provide pro-bono creative work to create a series of different billboards as well as people with expertise in placing outdoor advertising, website domains, etc.

Furthermore, hundreds if not thousands of “freedom-supporting” or “contrarian” Substack newsletters already exist. If a large percentage of authors of these newsletters got behind this initiative, it might be far easier to recruit 100,000 to 200,000 donors (citizens willing to contribute $5 to $25 or more).

If only one percent of each author’s subscribers made a donation, the fund to rent thousands of billboards would, probably, be easily achievable. What I envision is some kind of one-day or one-week “Substack telethon” to support this effort.

The first step might be to develop a committee to meet via a Zoom call and brainstorm on how to make such a campaign possible.

Anyone interested in this concept/idea can contact me via the Reader Comments or via email at: wjricejunior@gmail.com

If this happens, Substack will have, perhaps, changed the world for the better.
