    Trump is just the symptom, he is not the disease.

    When he leaves office (by hook or by crook) the disease will remain; they have purchased replacements already.

        We had them. USA used to bust up companies and revoke business licenses with regularity

        Unfortunately, we also had “campaign donations” and then we had “corporations are people” and “money is free speech” and after 60 years here we are.

        Our political system can’t be fixed by laws at this point, those receiving all of those “donations” will not willingly legislate their wealth away. Look at them. Pelosi has never turned down a check in her life. McConnell got rich for over FORTY YEARS. and so on
