Corruption: Rotten to the core
The American political system, at least since the passage of Citizens United, has become one of the most corrupt political systems in the world. Money has always been the mothers milk of politics but it has now become the only nourishment for present politicians. They beg for money.
The trump told his voters he was going to "drain the swamp". Instead, he has moved the Okefenokee Swamp to Washington. They are up to their necks in slimy, mossy alligators. They all arrived with their pockets full of money, willing to buy any politician with his hand out.
But, it didn't stop at our water's edge. Money came in from all over the world. Russia, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, and other countries were more than willing to buy a share in the once great democracy called America. Donald Trump and the Republicans were more than willing to sell it to them. They did not come to Washington to serve the public good - they came to cushion their pockets with all the money they could stuff in them.
The apple may look red and delicious on the outside, but inside, it is rotten to the core.
