What's this?

Of course not. Corruption knows no ideology.

This is that part where I typically point out how the grand Trumpelton insurgency billed itself as different than the establishment it was hoping to break into. "Drain the swamp!" they cried. Oust the career politicians living fat and happy off the labor of Real Americans™! THIS TIME IT WILL BE DIFFERENT!

Only no. Not really. Just the same old tired Social Conservative tripe, overcooked and with a side of ketchup.
