Trump told it like it is.

Who were the other people on the stage with him? Anyone who’s ever started and run a business, made any significant money without shaking down the taxpayers?

That’s who and what they are. He’s not kidding. You don’t give all of them money, they come after you. The big corporations are scrupulous about splitting donations - it’s protection money. And maybe one day you call and they answer and you get a bit of help.

Corrupt? Hell yeah. But he just told it like it is. NOT ONE of those other people - except maybe Ted Cruz or Rand Paul - would admit that.

Correct me if I’m wrong. The more a person prosper the more enemies you make. Also the more your business prosper the more you will be forced to donate to politicians (of any party) in order to keep any regulations at bay against one’s business.

Didn’t this happen with Bill Gates in the beginning? He prospered but didn’t donate in the beginning. That is when under the Clinton Administration they started to hound him with Anti-Trust laws against Microsoft. Once he started his donations and lobbyists. The government then gradually began to lay off.
