New Yorker Magazine Just Called Donald Trump the Most Corrupt Candidate Ever, Here’s Why…

By Grant Stern Posted on July 7, 2016

Republicans have inevitably turned a blind eye to the most hideously corrupt Presidential candidate in the history of the United States: Donald J. Trump. New Yorker tore to shreds Trump’s weighty conflicts of interest running for President as a real estate developer and brand marketer, which has turned him into the kind of candidate who pitches one of his failed business ventures like “Trump Steaks” after winning a primary election. NY Mag recently published a brutal op-ed in which they slammed the candidate for openly running his campaign as a way to enrich himself:

Trump has not merely intermingled campaigning with his business interests; the two are one and the same. His entire political career seems to be an outgrowth of his efforts to build his personal brand, which Trump has endlessly used the campaign as a platform to promote. He has devoted speeches to attacking the judge in the fraud suit against his “university,” instructed surrogates to do the same, and promised to relaunch the enterprise if elected. He celebrated the Brexit vote, which drove down the value of the pound, as helpful for driving visitors to his Scottish golf course. This sort of behavior is not an appearance of a conflict of interest but the definition of one.

If Trump’s crooked business dealings just ended at shaking down regular Americans across the country in get-rich-quick schemes, it would be gross enough. But the presumptive Republican nominee for President took that a thousand steps further. Trump’s nightmarish casino swindling left longtime employees without healthcare since the fourth and final bankruptcy, leading to an ongoing worker’s strike at Trump’s Taj Mahal extending through the 4th of July, while Trump made millions off the hotel’s staff and creditors’ pain with the same self-dealing thievery his political campaign exhibits today.
