Agree - the method of soliciting funds needs to be tweaked.
BUT… funding is critical to victory.
And the annoyance is a tiny sacrifice compared to the Maoist political and cultural revolution, that will rampage through our country without restraint or conscience, if the Maoist ticket takes office.

So, my unsolicited advice is to ignore the small irritant and give til it hurts, to save our nation. No matter how much the solicitations and giving pain us now, it is much less pain than confiscation of property, persecutorial imprisonment, beatings, bullets and bayonets.
It's hard to disagree with that, and yet -- it seems to me that in this day and age, and given our technological achievements, the annoyance factor could easily be minimized. For example, it could be built into their mailing program system to pause pursuing, say, for a couple of weeks, those who have recently given.
Ah, well, I'm exempt from that. I never have started texting -- most of it is compulsive busyness -- and I absolutely refuse to give out my phone numbers. In fact, on one occasion when I was going to make a small donation the system would not process it without the phone number, so I abandoned my effort. Serves 'em right.
Although -- come to think of it -- I COULD just give them a made-up number. They wouldn't know.

Or even a pause for just a couple days would be appreciated! Though I have to say, I wonder if some of the texted money requests are fraudulent.
I don't reply to any texts. I only give direct to a candidate through the candidate's own website's link to winred.
