>...political advertising...

This is a euphemism for quid pro quo bribery. The Europeans and other democracies recognize it as such.

It is clear that the Western Democracies have at least as much freedom of speech as the US. For example, they do not have leaders who get sport figures professionally banned for what is conspicuously an instance of unpaid political speech.
