How is it relevant that its a rap artist?

The darn rap artists are at it, again! Rap will destroy the country!!!!! ha ha ha What scares the stock market more than a bear market? Give up. Its rap music.

I guess saying the name of the person wouldn't be sensational enough.

You would expect Socialist Democrats to even acknowledge that? Maybe open an investigation at the time?

Well there's an indictment, so that's something.

It was one of the Fugees who were pretty famous a decade ago.

Another can of worms the Trumpettes probably don't want to open...

Presumably nothing given it they the indictment relates to obscuring the source of the money.

Still, the nature of US politics encourages an implicit cash-for-access bargain for almost all candidates regardless of party, especially since the SC to remove many of the limitations.

Obama's as pure as the driven snow. Didn't you know that?
There was a news broadcast during Obama's last term. A member of Congress was asked about possible impeachment proceedings against BHO. This guy must not have cared to be PC because he said, the only reason Barack Obama wasn't impeached already was because there would be a racism outcry.

SCOTUS ruled on the Citizens United case in 2010.
Why is this a problem?
I think it's gross, but is it illegal?
Was Putin's efforts in 2016 somehow worse?

The USA has clearly opened the election process to the highest bidder. This isn't new, but in the last few years it's become more unapologetically blatant. Why is this guy more of a problem than the Koch brothers? Because he's black? Because he doesn't have a phalanx of expensive lawyers? What?
Isn't this a free country where you can buy all the political leaders you can afford?
