So, I guess the question is: Who is worse, the buyer or the one who is bought.

If you are politically correct, political incorrectness hurts.

If the truth disturbs you, truth hurts.

What Trump said here is both politically incorrect and truthful.

How does it feel?

Trump is making a factual statement about those who call him. It is a true statement. It is about the caller, not about Trump.

Trump is not unique. I used to hang around the office of the late Illinois millionaire Jack Roeser. It was known that he was anti-corruption and would neither buy nor sell politicians despite his intense involvement in politics.

Both Republicans and Democrats, establishment and anti-establishment would call him and kiss his rear anyway. I’d be there when they’d call him and hear the call. Then those same callers would appear in the media, talk radio, etc and deny that they called him.

I suspect it happens to almost all rich people.

So the dems Trump has been funneling money to have been doing Trumps bidding.

No wonder everything the dems touch is so screwed up.

If he gives the money for that reason, takes the call, asks for favors, etc,, it is at least half about him.

Yeah, kinda like a “John” looking down on a prostitute’s morals.

Right the one not loyal to their constituents but who were loyal to Trump are SO much more presidential (I'm still a Cruz guy who would not have a problem voting for Trump in the general)

Yes we are.

I can not support Cruz because he, as all other politicians, owe their donors something in exchange for their money, Cruz will have to pay back sooner or later. That’s the truth. You simply can’t hide from that fact. He brings None to little cross over voters.

I believe Trump will never run a second term. Perhaps, by then, Cruz would have a better chance.
