    We need money out of politics, but it’s not going to happen because moderates Dems and Republicans both take advantage of it.

    We won’t be able to fix it till progressives are the majority, and we’re having difficulty because dirty money goes into primaries too where it’s even more impactful.

    If you bring in lots of money (shady was doesn’t matter) you get leadership positions.

    That’s why Jaime Harrison is is running the DNC despite not knowing how to win an election.

    The system is built around money, not votes.
