In my first academic article, I noted that the Citizens United case seemed to have taken on the perceived sins of a whole line of campaign finance jurisprudence — and more broadly, democratic discontent.  That is, it sometimes seemed like “Citizens United” had just become a way to signal “bad stuff.”

In that vein, I give you TNR’s “How Citizens United Greased Trump’s Payoffs to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.”

Seems as good a time as any to offer the reminder that links aren’t endorsements.
