Since I can remember (going back to FDR), the terms graft/theft/cheating/lying/racism/pedophilia/hatred/Marxist have always been synonymous with the title Democrat... It has been, and always will be, the principal requirement for being a Democrat...

Lefty will support corruption in his own party. That is why it is so common on the Democrat side.

It was going on long before FDR. Boss Tweed controlled New York around Civil War era and Tammany Hall goes back to post revolutionary New York.

She is a DEMOCRAT, and is there a reason that she always has that scarf wrapped around her head?

Who contributed to the Charity, and what conflicts of interests or bribery does that indicate.

Congress needs to close the loopholes on payments to family members and to charitable foundations. Or prosecute under existing laws.

I know, it drives you crazy!

In some cases its all you know and its what your teachers teach. Those are uninformed and indoctrinated.

If you are born in a place that relies on Machine Politics —like Phil. PA—to keep things running you learn to vote D. and not to upset the system or your trash does not get picked up or the hole in front of your restaurant does not get filed for 3 years. If you are smart you try to be on a first name basis and get along with your precinct committeeman, go use his local election recommendations, and kick a few dollars to the Alderman’s Christmas fund for the poor and hope it gets to them. You know that even if you don’t vote for them the Machine backed candidate will probably win. Vote however you want on state and federal elections.

On the other hand, once you see machine politics in action and move to the suburbs or another state and keep voting D. then you ARE stupid.

You can't treat a charity as your own personal slush-fund?

Try telling that to the Clintons.

Typical moozlum loser and criminal. Typical DIM politician. Both groups are malignancies upon civil society and the rule of law. Pathetic.

Reducing gun violence has been her top issue as a lawmaker.

Sounds like lining her pockets has been her top issue as a lawmaker.

Very enterprising, a real go-getter. An incredibly fast learner. Well, maybe not quite fast enough.
