80K? That’s, what, a party favor’s worth of bribes? Most members of this administration wouldn’t even get out of bed for such a paltry sum.
The fact that all of our freedoms and rights were for sale is bad enough, but if you see the absolute bottom prices that were paid, it’s a hundred times worse still.
Didn’t we recently find out from some leaks or disclosures that you can essentially buy some politicians for as low as $10K? I can’t remember the source right now
Yes, but you need access to get them for such a price. You can’t just walk in off the street with $10k and buy one afaik.
Of course not. There are rules. You have to be a white male, for example.
Or, a russian female. Also good.
