You seem to believe that if he had real convictions on these matters, he could do nothing. I may have been spoiled having seen real men make stands that would hurt them more than a billionaire who decided to forgo some business.
I just don’t think the “john” has any less moral responsibility than the prostitute, so the buyer of a politician isn’t any less repulsive than the politician who can be bought.
“so the buyer of a politician isn’t any less repulsive than the politician who can be bought.”
You are absolutely correct. Funny how they totally want to ignore this. The Donald is just as corrupt as the politicians the tRumpsters claim to hate.
Differences of opinion make horse races. I don’t agree with you but I don’t want to make my comments an attack. I ran my own business and I was lucky enough to be able to stand on principle, lose money to do the right thing. But while on the microcosm I was upright and went the extra mile without monetary reimbursement my choices had consequences. They were the right choices for me but because of them I never became a big operation and I was not able to have any effect on the corrupt system that was shortchanging patients and damaging healthcare. If I had instead been a player I could have amassed the political and monetary capital to have a chance to challenge the system.
I made my choices, Trump made his. In the end his choice may result in him being able to do much more to restore America than I was able to do although I did the most moral thing as I went along.
The world is not black & white.
