Wow... no other politician in the history of politicians has there ever been
one "bribed" with FAVORS.
Learn the difference, mook.
I love how you loony liberals ALWAYS spin shit. Favors turn into "bribes" and
not knowing the EXACT numbers turns into "lies".
Trump's simply being a LOT more transparent than other politicians. How do you
suppose Congressmen go into Congress making a decent salary but not
exorbitant, but come out being millionaires?
Nancy Pelosi didn't get her stock tips from her husband, moron, or they'd have
been filthy rich as they are now, BEFORE she got into politics. She got them
from people and companies whom SHE granted "favors" and bribes to, who
profited from the bills and laws she helped pass.
Must be so nice, being so ignorant of the way things work in governments.
Congressmen helps get a bill or law passed and the companies that prosper from
that, always give something in return to said Congressmen.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has
been driven effectively insane due to their dislike of Donald Trump, to the
point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the
Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into three distinct phases or
stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The
president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm, as if 140 characters were
all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's
vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting solely of
hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from
reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk
opposition from liberals to anything and everything Trump does. If Trump
announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would
suggest he was up to something nefarious, according to the logic of TDS.
There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be
received positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early
2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a punch line for late-
night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first
coined by the late conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer back in 2003.
The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in
otherwise normal people in reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay -
the very existence of George W. Bush."
