> if they would have simply shut the fuck up about trump the last 4 years, he wouldn't have nearly the power he does now. all true. the 250mil was the whole deal. the fec rules dealing with all that money, and the cash that was in the pipeline, is the only story that mattered, but not in the way you think.  win or lose any money you don't spend for the campaign, and they have spent much more than is publicly recorded, the candidate gets to pocket when it's all over.  the bernie sanders gambit.
