* Note the “Official Team Trump” seal of approval for this 17th Congressional District Republican candidate…
From Trump’s campaign website…
President Donald J. Trump will grant the right to use his “Seal of Approval” to an exclusive group of candidates and committees that the President endorses or otherwise supports. The purpose of the Seal is to help President Trump’s donors distinguish between authorized uses of his name and likeness, and unauthorized uses including oftentimes outright scams. It is intended to protect the President’s donors and supporters from illegitimate organizations falsely claiming some affiliation with President Trump and his campaign.
However, Crowl isn’t on the approved list.
Crowl has loaned his campaign $57,530 since last October and raised a few grand otherwise. He faces retired Rockford Judge Joe McGraw for the right to take on freshman Democratic US Rep. Eric Sorensen.

Mike Bost isn’t on the approved list either. Wonder what he needs to do to level up?

Nothing like scamming a scammer.

Enquiring minds want to know.

And there is a Scott Crowl of Milan in the EWG database who received $518,821 from USDA between 1995 and 2021. Sounds like he is a small operation.

Scott Crowl of Milan, IL received $20,896 of loans from the paycheck protection program all of which were forgiven.

The Republican primary ads will be entertaining. Wish I could get a dollar for every farmer, AFSCAMMY and union boss.

For one thing, he’s not the President.
