Russia illegally spent something like $100,000 on political ads. Thats basically nothing compared to aggregate political spending. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

It is mind blowing to me that this fact is not widely understood. A mountain was made out of a molehill. $4B was spent in 2016. $12B in 2024. Yet $100,000 somehow is believed to have made any difference whatsoever. Literally 0.0025% of the total in 2016. *Source: https://www.emarketer.com/content/political-ad-spend-nearly-... | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
