    play dirty

    How?

    Like, walk me thru what happens if the DNC “bans” AIPAC, and AIPAC spends on/against someone in a Dem primary again.

    What do you think the consequences should be?

    How would we avoid AIPAC spending a trifling amount to trigger that consequence on candidates they’re opposed to?

    What happens when AIPAC springs up the next day with a new acronym?

    Take a second and think how the things you want accomplished can actually be accomplished. Then join with the DNC who’s been trying to come up with a way they can actually do anything as just a party to limit PACs.

      No, not DNC. Make a PAC, use shell companies or whatever to keep from being identified, and pretend you love Israel and support Zionism. Then turn around and fund anti-Israel candidates. Do the same thing for oil and gas, religion, vaccines, whatever. Just a giant “trust me bro” network they can’t call out because dark money. Just keep some convincing white guys and ai chat bots to field any concerns the donors have.
