I didn’t realize he’s using the same people now as in TX. My sister donated tons of money to him when running in TX and she doesn’t live there. She thought he’d be great in the Senate. It’s interesting what happens to people when they cross that line from the Real World to D.C.
Now my sister is for Trump.
He describes how the guy (or gal) from back home gets elected to US Congress by saying, "When I get to Washington, I am going to fight for you, I am not going become part of the corrupt bunch there, I will not take bribes, I will not deal with lobbyists, and I will resign after one term..." etc.
Then the man and his wife get to Washington. They look around. The Italian marble floors, the gold-plated wall paper, the cocktail parties with the rich and famous, the media fawning on them, lobbyists buying them anything they want...
And they look at each other and say, "Honey, we've made it! We've finally made it! I will make sure I do whatever I have to do to guarantee we never leave!"
