This is a bribe.
This is what the US has come to. A billionaire just openly and brazenly paid the President of the United States a bribe.
Is anyone going to do anything about it?
No. Because it has deniability.
It used to be public people worried about the appearance of impropriety because just looking bad was bad. Now if someone can’t prove the worst, you are presumed innocent. IMO because a bunch of morons thought the legal precept of “presumption of innocence” was a good argument for the rest of us not assuming the worst.
Partisanship in a corrupt system requires at least some willful blindness.
Reportedly Trump directly solicited this bribe as a precondition to “come inside the tent”.
Bribes, grifts $25M.
