Trump Built His Swamp In A Marsh Of Legalized Corruption

billmoyers.com

"Corruption is now almost completely legal, the illegal stuff almost never gets prosecuted — and that process of normalization has delivered predictable results. It has not merely given us Mar-A-Lago and Bedminster. It has created an entire kleptocracy defined by billionaires and corporations funneling cash to both parties’ lawmakers, super PACs and think tanks in exchange for propaganda, legislative proposals and laws.

Those laws have created the crushing inequality that enriches the donor class, while pulverizing everyone else. And now thanks to war-is-peace jurisprudence and bipartisan policy, the pervasive corruption is seen as just the mundane, tolerable, day-to-day process of government and elections, rather than being recognized for what it really is: an unacceptable crime spree that is destroying the country."
