And here folks is why the GOP crime syndicate is pushing so hard for this guy. We are already more of a plutocracy and this will be the final nail in the coffin...
Quote:
The Supreme Court nominee opposes even the most basic campaign finance limits.
By the timeDonald Trump runs for re-election in 2020, he might be able to accept unlimited campaign contributions to support his bid, thanks to his nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the United States Supreme Court. Documents released ahead of Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearings this week that date from his time in George W. Bush’s White House reveal that the judge just might be ready to strike down what’s left of federal law limiting contributions to candidates, as a First Amendment violation. There are two cases heading to the Supreme Court that would allow him to do just that.
Leftists are still crying that they have lost a generational opportunity to change the makeup of the Supreme Ct. The elections of 2014 & 2016 cost them dearly in this.
That must sting. Make them cry.
So all they have left now is the politics of personal destruction. This instead of trying to figure out why America won't vote for them anymore.
So money has nothing to do with elections? Do you seriously believe that??
The same Republicans that want to "unshackle" campaign funds, will scream bloody murder if rich Democrats buy those elections.
That is a FACT.
The same Republicans that screamed about capitalism, suddenly think successful tech companies should be government controlled, because they are not bowing down to Trump.
The same Republicans that said gambling is a sin, are on bended knee to Sheldon Adelson.
The same Republicans that loved gerrymandering, will scream in pain if districts are drawn differently in 2020.
So get these Republicans on record because sooner or later, the tables always turn, a few rich Democrats could be unleashed as well and Republicans will suddenly wail that this is "not what our founders intended!"
So finances have nothing to do with elections? Do you seriously believe that?
Far less than the candidate. Why didn't Hillary win? She spent far more than Trump. This is simply an excuse for not running a decent candidate. Run a decent candidate and they will beat Trump even if he spends 80 Trillion dollars.
