The landmark 2010 Supreme Court decision in Citizens United v. FEC was seen favorably by the GOP’s base when it happened, but as the race for the Republican presidential nomination heats up, the superPAC donors who once benefited from the potentially unlimited amounts of cash raised by independent groups have become skeptical.
According to The Hill, Republican frontrunner Donald Trump is running a relatively cheap campaign, leaving those who donated millions to campaigns for Jeb Bush, John Kasich, Scott Walker, and Rick Perry confused and angry.
Certainly, this election cycle has changed the way voters and politicians look at campaign donations and spending. Trump is mostly funding his own campaign, and has disavowed nine superPACs while calling on his Republican challengers to do the same. On the Democratic side, Bernie Sanders is refusing corporate funding, and has only accepted donations from private individuals. Sanders broke records last month when it was reported that he has received contributions from two million individual donors. The majority of Sanders’s contributions have been under $30.

They say that the truth is the consultants essentially used the Romney campaign as a money making scheme, forcing employees to spin false data as truth in order to paint a rosy picture of a successful campaign as a form of job security.
Zac Moffatt, Digital Director for the Romney campaign, was specifically named as having “built a nest egg for himself and co-founder of Targeted Victory, Mike Beach,” and that they “didn’t get social” media and ignored objections from other consultants and staffers in the campaign.

If Trump is not controlled opposition then by the election he will have either:
A) Been "found" with child porn
B) Died in a Jet/Car "accident"
C) Died of a "heart Attack"
D) Committed "suicide"
Same thing with sanders.

And if any of that happened, no one would believe the OS.
The world could finally rise up in revolt.
It'll be the French Revolution on a massive level.
