S_204,

Politics are for sale. How does America get money out of its politics? That’s the question here and has been for decades now.

And this isn’t anything new either, it’s been going on for decades

yeather,

Yeah? That’s how politics work these days. It happens both directions every election.

jeffw,

I’m certainly not denying Dems have pushed MAGA candidates (although for slightly different reasons, typically they are easier to beat in a general, not because Dems want them in office). However, the magnitude of the cross-party spending for a house primary here is significant.

Lemminary,

Don’t bother with that user. I have them blocked because they can’t come up with a comment that’s not hateful.

jeffw,

Thanks for the heads up. The initial comment seemed innocent enough but I’ll avoid engaging.

yeather,

That guy is just mad and petty, the comment I originally made was genuine since attempting to influence the other party is a part of politics and this didn’t seem news worthy.
