Damn.. I didn't sign up for the "Yang Gang" e-mail list, so I didn't know how I ended up on their e-mail roster.. but anyone else on their email roster can attest to this; in the last 72 hours, he started sending massive amounts of e-mails requesting donations, talking about how they were going to win, and needed the support of the #yangang.
I wonder how much money he raised in those 72 hours, only to announce he was dropping out (with a nice portion of his demographic being young). He had to have known prior to 72 hours that he planned on dropping out, being a "numbers and math guy".. This seems like an exit scam to me.

The whole campaign fundraiser thing in the US just looks like a scam to me.
I remember seeing an AMA on reddit about people who investigated it, and campaign funding was spent in not so campaign stuff.
