This was the original comment I responded to.

As long as we allow the DNC to prioritize rewarding donor bundlers with leadership positions, it'll never change.

My question was how do we win elections without donors?

I don't see them arguing to remove all doners and thus win without them?

This is still feeling like a "more doners is more better" argument which they rejected with a "not this time" reply so no questions were avoided.

No wonder you were so quick to level accusations of strawmanning. It was a confession, it's always a confession.

Less donors means less chance of winning. Democrats just lost while spending the most. So take those odds of winning and reduce them.

Maybe you should stop bringing your feelings into it and look at it objectively. Citizens united was passed for a reason. It was part of a strategy to buy politicians. How do we win elections to change things without donation?

It’s always a confession? I’ve never spoken to you before. This seems like an emotional knee jerk response.
