Crooked TrumpsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #politics7 years ago

The Tea Partiers and GOP love to tell the story of how crooked Hillary is. Mostly based on their own attempts to discredit her. Meanwhile Trump seems to be getting a free pass somehow, despite his own massive legal troubles and corruption.

Trump was found guilty of violating tax laws by contributing to Bondi’s campaign, a donation that was paid out of donor money contributed to the “charitable” Trump Foundation. In return for Trump’s illegal donations, Bondi immediately dropped a lawsuit that was brought against Trump’s scam business, Trump University. - http://bipartisanreport.com/2016/10/06/breaking-wapost-uncovers-trump-bribes-to-multiple-attorney-generals-fbi-contacted/

This is important. One of Trump's big claims is that he's an outsider, who has come to fix the corruption in politics. That, like most of what he says, is an outright lie. He is unequivocally the other side of the corruption in politics. The argument against many politicians is that they, essentially if not literally, take bribes from the rich to pass policies favorable to the wealth. Trump is the wealthy, he is the person making those bribes. He's not separate from the corrupt system, he's very much part of the corruption.

In Trump's own words:

As a businessman and a very substantial donor to very important people, when you give, they do whatever the hell you want them to do. As a businessman, I need that.

There are two sides to every coin, and while the GOP is brandishing one side to convince you they are hiding their own corruption on the other side.

Sort:  

If god had meant for us to vote in this election
he would have provided candidates.
one is evil and nasty
the other is nasty and evil.
basically the same.

If you really feel that way, there's always Johnson.

That said, I think 90% of what's wrong with Clinton is the 8 year long campaign the GOP has waged against Hillary. They've literally done everything they can to discredit her, and it's worked very well.

no clinton discredited her self she is the devil incarnate

The HildeBeast is evil
The cheetoo is a con man
Feel the johnson?
yeah...riiight...

She committed election fraud nobody voted for that dumb bitch or else how is she losing to such an idiot as trump.
