    Corruption in Washington


    If it seems like the government doesn't care what you think, that's probably because they don't.

    Money is power, not votes.

    Trump has no donors and if he wins it puts congress and the senate on notice.

    And he, too will have a pen and a phone.

    Not sure how that is going to work out.

    That and he brags about the fact that he spent his career feeding into the corruption. Literally *brags* about it.

    Perhaps I'm wrong, but I also doubt the Founding Fathers intended a Congressional seat to be a career. That's a BIG part of the problem too. They shouldn't be able to stay on Capitol Hill for 30, 40, 50 years or more.

    I prefer someone like Trump who is honest about the sleaze and corruption...

    as opposed to politicians who generally tell you what you want to hear and then turn around and fuck you in the ass.

    Being honest about it is a good thing. Being proud of it... not so much. He has a team of people right now as you are reading this whose job is to buy politicians, so he's clearly not interested in ending corruption. Sure, he's *personally* immune to corruption, but he's not going to lift one finger to fight corruption anywhere else in Washington.
