That was your point, I think?

That and the fact that one of your main complaints is that the Republican party is funneled money for propaganda and fox news is the major corporation along with these other local news conglomerates that feed so much money and news to brain washed people. . So the question is why is the DNC so bad at saving money despite raising almost double the money as the RNC and blowing through almost a billion in campaign finances and whom is donating double the amount of the RNC is the RNC are the elites?

They are now having to send multi-billionaires like Tom Steyer and Bloomberg to fundraising events and dumping money to remove themselves from debt. This is despite having more money financed to their campaign in mid terms. This is despite having more money financed for the 2016 election.

Elections are expensive? I don't know what to tell you. I really don't care about the DNC's finances, tbh. They had to spend a lot more money to get air time than Trump did because he just ran his mouth and the news stations covered it for free. How they market themselves doesn't really have a bearing on how they'll spend for social programs.

Dawg if they raised 700 million and only have 12 million in outstanding debt they're doing pretty fucking good. Debt isn't always structured in a way you can or should pay off immediately. This isn't Baconators.

I don't trust anyone who didn't like Pokemon. 1997-1999 were peak years to be a nerd. Pokemon, Dragon Ball Z, EverQuest, AOL chat rooms, Digimon battles in the cafeteria -- middle school was pretty good.

Sports were always just as important. Between school, baseball, football, soccer, MTG games with friends and gaming...didn't really have time for Pokémon. Plus when Pokémon really started to get popular I was like in 5th-6th grade, my younger brother and all his friends were into 4 years younger. Kind of kills the vibe when you are getting starting to get into girls in middle school and getting your first porno mags. I assume our experiences were a lot different though lol.

It is when you have to recruit Bloomberg and Steyer to join the campaign to try to throw campaign finances at it to offset any on the line voters. They know they aren't going to win. Bloomberg is so anti republican he put the $100 million himself on mid terms and now wants to join the race just to try to pull any voters from Trump and get any excess finances they can from people that aren't any other democratic supporter but like Bloomberg. Bad part is he is probably only pulling inner party for votes for the most part and blowing his own money to help raise money for the DNC.

It also boils down to which branch the money goes to. The senate funding is terrible and they don't get 700 million in fundraising like that. You gotta start your campaign somewhere. Hard to run a campaign and raise money when you owe money and can't get publicity. If you notice recently the voice for ads on social media platforms are getting louder. Why? Because they suck and can be wrong but also because DNC doesn't have money. The RNC does.

Debt is useful and the blue team has more money than the red team, according to your post.

e: it's possible they decided the Senate is a lost cause lol

I doubt our lives/experiences were drastically different. I played Baseball (til 2001), played M:TG in class (because who pays attention in Spanish Class?), EverQuest in 1999 -> 2004, girlfriends essentially back to back until I married my wife. Wasn't single for longer than 2 months at any point from 1998 onward.

I don't think anyone recruited Bloomberg - he's self righteous - basically a democratic, civil, version of Trump.

Debt isn't when you are managing campaign finances. That kills elections. Ask any of the people that are about to be cut from the upcoming debates. Blue side does because they aren't blowing money and overall raised less. If I was looking for someone to manage my money and run the countries finances, I would look to someone who needed to spend less and end with more return.

The argument that Obama blew the money doesn't pass the smell test because the money was raised with Hillary. Hillary raised $700 million while Trump , $400 million, did more with less. I know that was a common phrase here but it happened. The left cries for money out of politics but they are entrenched in money and terrible at utilizing it.

How much did Bernie raise and how did he raise it? That's the sort of campaign finances people want. Overall nobody gives a shit about Hillary. They just knew she would be better than Trump. Same with Biden, sadly. Hopefully he bows out but he'll likely be pushed through. And he'll still be better for this country than Trump.
