Yeah...toddlers can't give money to political organizations on their own free will. The FEC is probably already working on case against him for this blatant violation.

But he honestly thinks that his legal right to gift money family members overrides campaign finance rules.

Is there a monetary requirement to be allowed to enter a debate?

I'm not saying it only matters if one party does this shit. I agree with you, it doesn't matter who does it, it's wrong.

But that doesn't change the fact that I would have put $100 on this dude being a Republican before I even clicked that link, and I would have won that bet. Politicians suck, but Republican politicians are a special breed of dogshit.

His willingness to skirt/break state laws on campaign finance tells what kind of Congressman he aspires to be.

As his gaurdian i can make these decisions on his behalf. So yeah i could donate to a campaign. Now in the campaign finance world yeah donating to my own campaign would probably be illegal (ianal). But for us regular folk. Probably legal.

I generally agree with you that money should neber dictate access to opportunity, but in terms of getting on a debate stage for a political campaign I agree with it being in place. They dont have to pay to get in, its about how much your campaign has raised and its usually a relatively low threshold. If they didnt then there could be 50 people on the stage cuz they filed a piece of paperwork

Typical conservative "alpha male" complaining about...somehow being completely at the mercy of liberal women. How can you wave around your AR saying, "I don't take shit from nobody!" while also crying because "I cheated and still lost to a girl"? You can't have it both ways. "I am an alpha victim bro" doesn't make any fucking sense.

It's actually worth playing this time! You have this guy - I'll let others give it a go - and then the other candidate, who took the overwhelming majority of their funding from one single crypto ghoul. Awesome electoral system we have! I love these meaningful choices, and am really sure my views will be well-represented!

And if you open it to the universe, forever, without naming a single name, what does them mean?

Madden is running in Vermont now. That sets the standard, which he failed. I vote in Vermont, not other states.
