Yeah. I’m sure people will argue that we have to beat Trump so it’s ok…
But that ignores Dems doing this shit just made republicans start doing it too. It’s been 8 years, it shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone.
Like, there’s no reason only Dems can pull this to get around donations limits, if they wanted to stop trump more than anything, we’d have closed this loophole by now so trump couldn’t do it too.
Unfortunately a shit ton of people have zero idea despite seeing headlines like this one all the time.
Hell. This is still a continuation of what Donna Brazil disclosed back in the day, the party made a big show of saying it was just DWS on her own and obviously the party didn’t support it…
But it’s still happening, and people are fucking psyched that 99.9% of Americans just got priced out of American politics. Even if we could afford the actual limit of 2.5k, it’s nothing compared to what the rich can give, so politicians will keep catering to the rich
well I think part of the problem is that the narrative is controlled. Even on lemmy, but that’s because having an unregulated political space gets messy and is a lot of work for the moderators…
Hopefully this community can turn into something positive and take away 0.00000000001% control of the narrative. Every little bit helps, lol
