We’ve been going back and forth about whether HRC, Trump, Biden or so many others have committed crimes. While an important discussion it pales by comparison to the fundamental corruption in the political arena. This corruption isn’t confined to a party but is spread across the entire spectrum. Basically if you manage to get elected to office you’re a millionaire many times over. There people aren’t representing us they’re pulling up to the feeding trough. I don’t know how to stop it but we’re in serious trouble. This article is but an example. https://www.businessinsider.com/barack-obama-michelle-obama-net-worth-2018-7
Corruption isn’t limited to presidents and their families. It’s broad and deep.

While you are absolutely correct about the sorry state of those LEADING OUR COUNTRY, one needs not look past these Congressional impeachment hearings. Both Dems and GOP come across as robotic morons, as if they were programmed, in every hearing. And that is not even addressing Trump, and his band of amigos.
It’s also this acceptance that leads to Schiff and Nader. I doubt Trump is pure as the wind driven snow, but Trump really didn’t have any monetary reason to gain by becoming POTUS. That sets him apart from the very reason you cite for much of the corruption. Becoming a millionaire when you are already a billionaire makes no sense at all. In contrast, all of the people in politics like Obama, Biden, and... yes, Mc Cain, Bush, Romney et al, who’ve been pretty much nothing but politicians are a completely different story from Trump. Obama would not be buying an 11 million house on an island without becoming president. IMO, you really have to consider this when judging the actions of Trump vs those of Shift for brains. I’m more inclined to believe Trump that he held back on funds for corruption in general,
Because he does things differently does not make it illegal or immoral for that matter. He is not a politician and exactly what we have been dying for
