> You can be damn sure the government has a list of possible email addresses

Hell, I've already gotten more email from the current administration than I ever got from Obama, Clinton & Sanders combined, and I'm a confirmed lefty.




... really? Can you expand on that? In my country, the government is not in the habit of sending out emails, largely so that they can tell people to disregard any email that claims to be from the government, as it's usually a scammer.


The United States government owns the .gov gtld so it's pretty easy to identify their emails.


Right, but what do they send you?


Here are the subject lines, with brief description.

Supreme Court News [Getting ready to nominate]

Supreme Court Update [Gorsuch chosen]

A Vote for America's Future [from VP Pence about his DeVos vote]

Major Economic Update [jobs bragging]

President Trump's Weekly Address [solicitin FB & Twitter follows, petition signing, watch his speech]


Not sure how I feel about that. It sounds fucked up, like propaganda, but it can be interpreted positively as well. They're keeping in touch with the electorate and keeping them informed. Dunno.
