Menendez is probably corrupt in his dealings with the doctor and influence peddling. However, this corruption pales in comparison to Senators and Reps that push through “sweet heart” legislation for Unions, and business and most importantly banking and trade associations all of which is quite legal and a moral cesspit of influence peddling. Why do big corporations and Wall Street fund leftist Democrats? The answer is simple, they are all for sale as are many Republicans but not all.
With rare exceptions Congress is for sale to the highest bidder. Most of the exceptions are those that are the Tea Party.
Big Business, Big Banks, Labor Unions. and organized left wing extremists act in a totally rational manner. Each have their own agenda and buy the legislation that benefits them.
As mentioned, most of Congress IS FOR SALE TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER.
Forgot to add this comment, Menedez is no fool. He sure as hell would not have went to bed with an underage hooker if he knew she was not of age. There are many young beautiful hookers that are 18 years old.
If he did, he did not know.
I am no fan of Menendez but just commenting as I see it. He is probably a pretty scummy individual.
