It’s easy to understand the MAGA people’s belief that the election was stolen. I would propose that many elections have been stolen recently, but not by the Democrats. It was the Supreme Court that stole it from the citizenry with the ruling of ‘Citizens United’. They’ve turned us into a Dollar-acracy. Now that the lawyers have had time to parse it out, they are busy setting up PAC’s that don’t have to reveal their donors. Who are these donors? Who wants the US to be divided and full of hate for each other? Russia and China both come to mind. Russia is the one country in the world that stands to gain from global warming. Saudi Arabia is benefiting now from global warming and will continue too as long as we continue to need their oil. Both political parties are benefiting because it’s easier to get one big PAC donation than spending hours on the phone raising funds. Both parties don’t see any problem with backing candidates that take money from people with single issues from any state in the union.
The Supreme Court has made it impossible to “follow the money” which is the standard way to illuminate corruption. In order to drain the swamp of liquidity, it will be necessary to pass a Constitutional Amendment. I would suggest something like: “Notwithstanding the first amendment, all efforts to influence elections for office shall be limited to those able to vote in said election”.
