    I think *a lot* of Trump's behavior is driven by the fact that he views both politics & law as a cynical racket, & so do many of his supporters.https://twitter.com/OneFineJay/status/1179055408742313984 …

    That and he knows politics is full of moral compromises and he's not about to act like some kind of paladin, and that maybe people who treat the office as such have deluded themselves all along

        After seeing the cynical racket run on us since the Clinton years through Bush and Obama, the fact that it's so transparent now is, refreshingly annoying and annoyingly refreshing. This is the sausage factory, now with look-in floor to ceiling glass walls.

        This is maybe the best description of current politics I have ever seen.

        All politicians are corrupt. Being from New York you should understand that.

        Oops, “criminal” apparently autocorrected to “cynical.” I’d delete and start again if I was you.

        This is trying to put on some sort on a lens of justifiability when looking at a totally corrupt, unethical, ignorant, self-serving narcissist who cares about absolutely nothing except his own ego and power.

        God no. They all know, and profit from, that racket. Trump is just the only one unwilling to pretend it isn't for the cameras, and they hate him for exposing them for the frauds they are.

        As do most of his detractors. They have come to learn, & rely on the fact, that the mainstream media has no desire to investigate Democrat misfeasance. In the future, we will have politicians such as Clinton & Biden enriching their families due to their official positions.
