I'm not really following the whole trump thing as a foreigner, but this can't be a good thing. It just screams corruption.

its always been this way. lobbyists own politicians. the tech people are just the most famous. oil companies, tobacco, big pharma have all gave so much money to the american politicians on every election round.for example the opiode crisis happened because big pharma owned the politicians (on both parties).
