Do you know how magic works?

Do you know how magic works? It's very simple: the magician distracts you with one part of the show while the "trick" is being performed on another part of the show. You don't see it happening because you weren't watching the trick, but the show.

This just happened to the American people. We were all focused on #DonaldTrump saying something stupid (again) that no one was watching when the Trump administration rolled back dark money protections.

The good new is, this isn't codified in law, so it can be overturned with the next administration, but the bad new is, now any foreign interest in the world can plug as much pitch-black money into our elections as they want. It means, Trump's sugardaddy, Vlad Putin, doesn't have to be so discreet anymore.
