I suppose if a fire breathing dragon used hair dye, it would run too. So I see where you’re coming from.
And if Trump had his way there'd be some incest happening as well.

What is next for Trump? More investigations of wrong doing. More charges filed. More court cases.
Shake downs and bribe solicitation for starters.

Unfortunately, our laws seem to be very tolerant of this kind of wink-wink quid pro quo. By another name, campaign contributions from wealthy donors would be called bribery. Trump just has a habit of saying the quiet part out loud. His family always bought favors from politicians to help them with their real estate dealings. Campaign contributions were the primary conduit for the bribes, and they generally got what they asked for from New York City politicians--both Democrats and Republicans. Trump has explained in the past that he never just gave money to politicians. He always knew what he expected as a return on his investment.

It seems that the most corrupt have gotten accustomed to privilege and immunity to the point that they don't bother hiding crimes anymore.

Not even offering the
Francis Bacon defense: sure I took bribes but I didn't let them influence me.Here is a politician who called campaign contributions "bribery": Kyrsten Sinema. That was when she was starting out in politics, however. Late in her career, she solicited big-donor campaign contributions with an eagerness that would have seemed intolerably corrupt to her earlier self.

As it turns out, tolerably corrupt.
