Some truth in the article. Yes, the turtle is a crony capitalist whore who will use any and all means to advance the agenda of his cronies. No, Ted Cruz has nothing to do with it.
Drop the kneejerk antagonism to conservatism and it would be a pretty good article.
Forget for a moment ideology. The only difference between democrats and republicans is when republicans steal, they siphon off funds from corporate profits. Democrats steal directly from the treasury.
Republicans believe the more people that work, the more money is made and their stealing isn’t a big issue because everyone gets theirs. Democrats leave a wake of destruction in their path without regard for anyone.
