    I know it’s good in this instance that Biden is likely to win because he can out spend the orange one, but I still find it crazy that your politics is just about who has the deepest pockets. Spending limits are a thing for a reason.

      It’s not. In 2016 Bloomberg outspent the other candidates by orders of ten and still lost horribly. Bernie raised funds from his electoral base and came to be a close contender to Clinton. You just can’t fix shit personality with money.
