No, I am not, and you know it. I am saying that to act as though Trump never “dirtied his hands” in politics is a lie.
You are the one that implied Trump was buying politicians with his donations, not me. I do not think Trump was dirtying his hands in politics as much as he was just trying to keep people off his back. He donated $25K to both sides in the VA governor’s race in 2009 because he was building a golf course there. Do I think he agreed with both sides equally? No. I think he just wanted them both not to screw up his golf course. All of these businessmen have seen how government at all levels destroys industries and businesses it takes an interest in. I think that many businessmen feel they have to pay the equivalent of protection money to keep government from getting too interested in them.
