It is almost as if “one strike you’re out” only applies to a subset of the population.

You see, that’s the fun thing about a Political Action Committee.

They are not directly working with the candidate, they are wholly independent. Meaning the candidate is not taking any money, regardless of the source.

And since companies are people, and money is speech, the PAC can get money from where they please, and do with it what they want.

They only need to make sure no evidence of direct cooperation between the PAC and the candidate can be found.

Although direct cooperation is not really needed, running ads for a candidate and trashing the other can be done perfectly fine completely independent. Plus it gives a candidate deniability.

Ik vrees dat een implosie nog erger is voor Nederland.

En wat ik wel hoop is dat, omdat er echt wel veel kaders al liggen er een hoop gepolderd moet worden met echte oplossingen. Iets roepen voor de bühne is een ding… maar nu moeten ze het laten zien.
