  So the RNC are allowed to fundraise and hold concerts and ad campaigns but the DNC are not?

    No? It’s hypocritical for Dems to demand voters give them money while telling people they want money out of politics. Personally I’d make it so politicians are paid the minimum wage of the state they represent and aren’t allowed to take bribes, donations, gifts from corporations or CEOs, and election funds are a pooled resource where everyone running for any party, big or small, has access to the same amount. Anyone found getting extra funds is immediately kicked out and banned from holding any level of government office, including even being a town mayor.

      Well I have some great news because the DNC also want to reform election finances to remove private funding. You should vote for the DNC.

      No? If we take them at their word, they want it so they can propagandize enough to be put in a position to ban it, pulling the ladder up from behind them
