On the other hand, do we want a system where only rich men can run for President?

Not always, but at least people like Trump can not be bought and be at the command and control of lobbyists and rich donors.

All other 15 candidates are not independently rich like Trump, but since they depend on their rich donor sugar daddy's to stay in the campaign, they ARE ALSO RUN BY THE VERY RICH.

I agree, it’s a conundrum. But as I stated before, I think the answer is reducing the costs for running for the office.

Are you unaware of the limits on donations Democrats have pushed and pushed (which amount to limits on speech) for decades using the exact same reasoning you presented.

Trump s, unfortunately, furthering the Democrat narrative with these comments.

“since they depend on their rich donor sugar daddy’s to stay in the campaign, they ARE ALSO RUN BY THE VERY RICH.”

What’s wrong with the very rich? Trump is very rich.
