Wow, you think the "Citizens United" ruling is actually pertaining to a group of citizens banding together to work on problems??

It's nothing but a reversal of voting laws that were put in place in order for large corporations not to be able to buy politicians and influence elections... talk about clueless... the 1st amendment was for individual rights, not a large corporation or a wealthy billionaire being able to pump money into buying elections and spreading lies.. but hey, you're a Trump sycophant so not surprising you repeat the orwellian bullshit... It should be name the "Citizens get fucked again and again because they keep voting for republicons ruling

Your logic is flawed. A corporation is owned by all its investors, not by the CEO. Since it's impossible to get all the investors to agree on which party to donate to then it shouldn't be called free speech. Once we get rid of that nonsense the rest of the case falls apart. SCOTUS simply ignores common sense so it can keep its party in power.
