Citizens united is horrible, but what I think they are talking about is a little different and also bad. Arguably addressed directly in the constitution but the SC doesn’t care. This isn’t lobbying, these are emoluments from foreign governments as far as I can tell.
You can’t say lesser evilism got us here when we chose the greater evil in the election before last. If we kept voting lesser evil maybe, but we don’t consistently. Not nearly enough to make the greater evil not think they stand a chance without lessening themselves.
