I thought he would get a vacation at club fed and a cushy job upon retirement. Or at least rat out all the other scumbags. It does not take a lifetime in politics to gain the wisdom to realize that.
1) if he was this cocky about it, it happened all the time. 2) Its not as if this idiot invented it.
3) He just is not as good at it as all the other predators and parasites who practice it 24/7 in the political/criminal/oligarchy that passes for goverment in the USA
I think you make some safe assumptions there. You’re probably right. If a guy is this stupid though, I don’t think you look the other way. He essentially begged for it. In hindsight I’ll bet he can’t believe he was that stupid.
