He can sue, but he won't win in any sane court.
No sane court? So it has a real chance of being decided by The Supreme Court...
They'd never even hear it. To give this lawsuit any credibility, they'd have to effectively say that businesses spending/donating money is not free speech. Which would effectively be the opposite of Citizens United.
You think they give a shit about consistency?
All that matters is the sponsorship tier - will you be flying the judge out to a vacation? Buying their mother a house? The outcome is solely dependent on your investment in the court. Justice.
Maybe they’ll say billionaires can sue as long as it’s an official act.
