Trump Says Miriam Adelson Offered Him 'Another $250 Million' to Run for a Third Term

Is there anyone here that thinks we should still allow massive amounts of money in politics?
Citizens United must be revoked. Yesterday is fine by me. And this article proves it.

1. in that same moment trump bragged that she gave him 250 million and he moved the embassy

that alone is "quid pro quo" and contrary to both israeli and american interests.

what he did not say is that he gave the embassy in tel aviv to adelson.

2. "Citizens United must be revoked."

That would require a Constitutional amendment – and the fascist right knows that’s not going to happen.

3. In taking down

Citizens United, we must be certain to pull out the roots: Buckley v Valeo and FNB Boston v Belotti. But I believe all of that could be done through normal legislation, without resorting to amending the Constitution. Still, yes, I realize that is a very heavy lift.

Please check me on this, any Constitutional scholars out there.

5. He can't stay awake for the first year of his second term.

Nor do his ramblings make much sense after the sun goes down.
Mrs. Adledson sounds like she’s in the same boat with him.
