    Foreign manipulation? Fuck AIPAC. The D next to your name means Dickhead if you took AIPAC money. Its actual blood money at this point. You are being funded by a terrorist state.

      AIPAC is funded by conservatives.

      The Democratic party is just bribed Republicans pretending to be opposition.

    Ahh money. The only thing you need to win.

    Agreeing with the people that have the money is just the best way to get more.

    I mean, the average person has no idea who is running for house, especially in primaries; most have almost no name recognition (even incumbents, unless you’re AOC or MTG). That’s why money works so well, if at the very least it helps a random voter think “that name sounds familiar, let’s go with that.”

    Only solution I can think of is just removing money from campaigns and having people rely on endorsements, but that’s not happening anytime soon.
