In current law, though, it's entirely acceptable for organizations like Soros's to donate to political campaigns. If Soros starts sending DAs on free fishing trips on a private jet, then it becomes comparable.
You mean legal.
Especially when one can use the unambiguous and concise "legal" instead of the vague and plodding "In current law, though, it's entirely acceptable".
Edit: You focus on legality to the exclusion of all else, while I care more about ethics and undue influence. Yes, the two cases are not identical. That does not mean they're not at least equally problematic.
This is not to say Citizen's United shouldn't be repealed and campaign contributions much more tightly regulated. But it ain't the same.
