I have come to the conclusion that just about everyone at the top is bloody corrupt. The Epstein files show us that this is true. Today, virtuous behaviour is very thin on the ground.
I was raised on the notion—the naïve notion as it has turned out—that one went into politics ‘to give something back’ AFTER one had become successful. Being in politics was viewed as a service to the nation. That sounds so quaint these days. These days, people go into politics TO BECOME RICH, by fair means or foul!
As for politics in America, we all know it is rotten and corrupt at its core. Particularly in Trump’s administration/regime. — © Mark Alexander
