Have you stopped the “crony capitalism” and moved onto something else now? Now that you’ve brought up political money and public and private interests, I’m starting to think you don’t like his politics and that’s about it. I can think of any other business who doesn’t spend millions for politics and “commingle public and private interests” (whatever that actually means). | |||||||||||||||||

> Now that you’ve brought up political money and public and private interests "Crony capitalism, sometimes also called simply cronyism, is a pejorative term used in political discourse to describe a situation in which businesses profit from a close relationship with state power, [...] In other words, it is used to describe a situation where businesses thrive not as a result of free enterprise, but rather collusion between a business class and the political class." > I can think of any other business who doesn’t spend millions for politics and “commingle public and private interests” So if cronyism is prevalent in US to some degree then a person who does that best shouldn't be criticisized? | |||||||||||||||||
