A lot of this article fails to add up by laudablepuss 07/29/2016, 3:42pm PDT
The guys in non-competitive or non-battleground states are afraid to complain to the DNC because the might not get any money. But, as the article says, historically they wouldn't get any money anyway (which was my thought while reading this). So what's the worry, exactly?

This supposedly benefits the Clinton campaign but clearly not directly right? The money is being transferred to the DNC.

I guess everything I thought I knew about banking is wrong because some guy (apparently a single individual in the Clinton campaign) can press a button and immediately transfer money out of FIFTY state campaign bank accounts without any consent from the owners.

This appears to directly break the rules (rules, not laws?) about what donations the DNC can accept. Any reason this isn't a bigger story or does nobody care about campaign financing anymore since the Supreme Court just shrugged it all off?

A+ though. Good job being idiots, guys. :(
