For sale: The US Government to anyone with enough money...
That's basically what we're seeing. The minute tRump got the nomination, his campaign was infested not with just the Russians but also a ton of foreign money.
Russian oligarchs were handed out tickets to the inauguration and went to the parties to rub elbows with repubs and other wealthy grifters.
Payment for access became the name of the game. Want a policy changed? Open up the checkbook.
It was a literal spending spree and whoever had the deepest pockets got their wishes granted.
In exchange, the tRump criminal empire took in every dime and used their newfound power to further enrich themselves no matter the legality of it.
They've played this game for 30 years and when tRump stole the WH, it went brazenly international at an unprecedented level.
It's all being displayed before our eyes as prosecutors and investigators unearth all the criminal activity. Every new scandal is a nail in the coffin.
There is no escaping what is headed to the tRump criminal empire, the people in it and even tRump himself. Whether his time in that office ends in impeachment, resignation or in 2020, all that he values will be lost to him.
Even if he never sees a day in prison, he will lose his influence, his power and his money. If he's lucky, one of his kids might call him from prison on Father's day.
