Is there anyone in the GOP who advocates to remove money from elections?

Vox? :rofl2:

No bill. Same empty promises that progressives have made for over 100 years.

They just pay lip service to the rhetoric when they lose elections. :palml: The Hillbag's loos was proof you can't just buy the presidency.

the only Constitutional way to take money out of politics is 100% funded public financing..anything less is inhibiting political speech

Switch to public funding and magically it will cost 10X more to get elected.

This is why I laugh at the Dims... "we love diversity! blah blah blah we hate rich people! blah blah blah we hate white people! blah blah blah we hate old people! blah blah blah we hate men blah blah blah"

Yet, who are their frontrunners for President?!?!

Biden: RICH, WHITE, OLD, MAN.
Sanders: RICH, WHITE, OLD, MAN.
Warren: RICH, WHITE, OLD, woman.
Buttgig: comfortable, WHITE, younger, MAN(??) Does that count??

And looky at who just entered the race...
Bloomberg: RICH, WHITE, OLD, MAN.

Notice a pattern here??
 
The truth used to matter to everyone. Honesty used to be something we respected.

We used to expect and demand honesty from our elected leaders.

We used to expect honesty and the truth from our media.

Fairness and equality used to matter to people.

But these attributes of honesty, fairness, equality, truthfulness, respect for others, has all been replaced with winning at any cost.

Lying, bullying, covering up, winning at any cost, showing disrespect for others, showing disrespect for the law, showing disrespect for the Constitution, showing disrespect for Congress, showing disrespect for the courts, showing disrespect for our Justice department, showing disrespect for people of color, showing disrespect towards our allies, showing favoritism to our adversaries, disrespect towards our military and it's leaders, showing disrespect towards ecology, showing disrespect for our intelligence community, showing disrespect for the media, showing disrespect for our past presidents, showing disrespect for the oath of office of the president, showing disrespect for Democracy, presidential self-interests, vindictiveness, racism, sexism, nepotism, White Nationalism, plutocracy, autocracy, are the new attributes of our nation's current leader, leader of the Democratic world, and leader of the Republican Party- Donald Trump!

If these are not impeachable offenses- THEY DAMN WELL SHOULD BE!

But for sure- they should not be the attributes of our president or any presidential candidate ever again.

And for those who intend to vote for these things- I certainly question your ulterior motives and self-interests.

If Doomberg uses his candidacy just to circumvent donation limits to buy mega $$$'s worth of negative Trump ads, will you be singing the same song?

If we ever made a major change like no private money, the loser would blame the change in rules
 
GOP campaigns took $7.35 million from oligarch linked to Russia

Trump and the political action committees for Mitch McConnell, Marco Rubio, Scott Walker, Lindsey Graham, John Kasich and John McCain accepted $7.35 million in contributions from a Ukrainian-born oligarch who is the business partner of two of Russian president Vladimir Putin's favorite oligarchs and a Russian government bank.

And this is the problem with the corrupt GOP. Not only do they abhor publicly funded elections, they allow foreign money to dirty and steal American elections.

im not GOP but yes I think publicly funding all elections would be an ideal to strive towards.

I also believe that the house of represenatives should not have elections at all, and instead resort to sortition. with a single term.

I disagree. Elections are a States Rights issue and as such, by having the funded at the Federal level takes it out of the states and centralizes elections.

Money is not the issue here; it is education of the people who vote for idiots. Idiots who think that the Government is there to give them handouts and redistribute wealth. The other issue now is the PHONY media who are no longer feigning journalism, but now all in promoting an ideology.
