I highly recommend reading her book Hiding In Plain Sight.

While she is 100% right at the Trump family is corrupt, and has been clearly manipulating a lot of things for many years to their advantage, it ignores the fact that many of the rich and elite do the same thing, including the Democrats.

I mean is it REALLY corrupt when you exploit legal loopholes and hire high priced tax attorneys so that at the end of the year you only need to minimal income taxes when the system has been setup by the rich and elite to do exactly that?

Remember when the Panama Papers came out and we were all outraged for 2 weeks? Nobody cares, and people literally died working to expose that information.

What about the latest FinSec files showing the world how big banks openly launder money for drug cartels and other corrupt organizations and are happy to pay the minimal fines to continue doing so?

Perhaps we are so caught up in the 'us versus them' mentality that we cannot see that BOTH sides are corrupt as hell, and constantly going for the lessor of two evils is making it worse. Does anyone honestly think Biden won't just be pulled around like a puppet by people within the Democrats if he becomes President. I mean the guy is clearly being controlled and run in a very specific way during his campaign.

The only insane part here is that people like Lanny are still naïve enough to believe that electing Biden will change anything.

I remember the same thing being said when Kerry was running for President.
