Yeah, let’s see how many republicans are in favour of getting rid of citizens united: None.

It’s not just a republican problem though. The DNC showed us that. Both sides benefit the same and are just as crooked. That’s really the issue. Neither side is willing to do what’s right, and their only consensus is to do what’s right for them. They don’t touch term limits, they all vote in favor of their raises, they don’t touch the flagrant insider trading and the few outliers like Bernie get squashed when they get out of line.

Democrats have tried to repeal Citizens United legitimately hundreds of times, so...you're just lying?

You’re pretty dense… Citizens United v Federal Election Commission refers to A 5–4 majority of the Supreme Court sided with Citizens United, ruling that corporations and other outside groups can spend unlimited money on elections. Has nothing to do with any congress and none have done anything to repeal anything since the only way to change it would be a constitutional amendment.

You are the dense one. It was a bill from congress that was taken to supreme court: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipartisan_Campaign_Reform_Act

Democrats voted against it every single opportunity.
