ALL politicians. Who spends millions of dollars to get a job that pays less than $200k a year? And they do it over and over for their entire lives, even into their 80s and 90s.
Amen. We need to eliminate all political fundraising, period. All candidates should have an equal platform. It shouldn't be about who can raise the most money for advertising and be beholden to return the favor to evil entities who sponsor them.
Absolutely. It's bullshit that it costs millions to run for office, and even more bullshit that the chances of winning (or the perception of this, backed by selection) raise in proportion to the amount of funds available.
I wonder how many millions those lifelong politicians will take with them to the burning pit after they die? After stealing from people I can’t imagine there’s be many zeroes in hell

Remember when Hillary stole all the White House silverware?! And the 'W's off all the keyboards?! Pepe-ridge Farms remembers...
Good Point!
the real nos may be different today.
That defies definition!
Well, its not as though their crimes, financial and otherwise, are going to be listed on their tax forms anyway
With 10 million I'd be comfy and wouldn't pork kids.
I'm interested in investigating the elected officials that became millionaires, not the billionaires that became elected officials.
