Aren't contribution limits a thing? Or are we done pretending that our politicians aren't bought and paid for?
nominally there a limits but the rich just donate however much they want to superpacs which are basically just front organizations for the politician.
I'm aware of all of the loopholes that exist now, but I didn't think the rich were just coming out and bragging about how they flaunt the very reasonable laws regarding contribution caps.
