We’ll give David Hogg credit for one thing: he realizes, even if most of his supporters do not, that the March For Our Lives is a special interest group, just like the NRA.
Except the March For Our Lives won’t be giving out any campaign contributions or endorsements, because the group believes you shouldn’t be running if you need money from special interest groups.
Dear Politicians,
Don't call us asking for endorsements. The only thing we endorse is common sense policies.
Don't call us asking for political donations. If you need money from special interest groups then you shouldn't be running.
Sincerely,
March For Our Lives— David Hogg (@davidhogg111) July 12, 2018
Instead… we'll just tell you which of the 2 candidates not to vote for, essentially giving an endorsement. https://t.co/Tt8BlTNHsw

Pretty much.
Who in their right mind is asking David Hogg for an endorsement? ?

Why would ANY politician be calling HIM and asking for an enforcement? He's fighting against our rights.

You’re already being played like a puppet dummy! They’ll get your money, and you’ll give it like a good little boy.

Not an unfair question:
Why does he have a problem with politicians asking for donations? They need money in order to campaign and reach people

Dylan, this is just another of Hogg's tweets meant to make him look deep and mature, as if he's "just fighting for the little guy" in his push to destroy the #2A and control a country.

According to NPR, the march on Washington itself cost $5 million, and the group still had “several million dollars” left over for “continued lobbying and other activism.” We’ll bet there are plenty of Democrats who would love some of that money in their campaign coffers, and we’re not sure what the nonprofit is going to do with its millions, aside from “voter education and ballot initiatives.”
How exactly will you win with these beliefs/attitudes?

I fear you may be making the same mistake Occupy Wall St made. They wouldn't pick a side thinking they were going to make their own way. They're all but irrelevant now. I don't want that to happen to you. Pick a side. Make a choice. That's what adults do every day. Step up.

We’re pretty sure the grown-up politicians and activists who comprise the March’s board have already picked a side, but we’ll see.
