Americans probably do not know that their country is
possibly the most corrupt in the world.
The average citizen has little comparison to make; but with the sheer
order of magnitude of money, complexity, sophistication mixed with technology
give our politicians much leverage in many dimensions. They are corrupt, the legality of which is
twisted in the complexity of the laws and rules (which they wrote). Donald Trump is many things, but he is not overtly
corrupt.
When Donald reminds us that the money forces cannot affect
him, he is ‘speaking truth to power. they're
going to say what others don't want us to hear’(from Geoff
Nunberg). and Donald is
speaking a truth that Americans want to hear, finally.
He reminds everyone how money has corrupted every single
politician. We need the reminder, and I
hope that as his lead in the polls dwindles his clear message does not.
