How does the American political system really work?
I can offer at least two answers to this most important question.
The first answer is to suggest that you read my “Short Guide To The American Political System” here.
A second answer is that you note a comment by Donald Trump in the hustings this week between 10 Republicans who want to take on the Democratic candidate – presumed to be Hillary Clinton – in the presidential election next year.
Now Trump has long courted the Clintons and donated to the former secretary of state’s Senate campaign fund – but he had a simple explanation:
“I was a businessman. I give to everybody. When they call, I give. When I need something from them two years later, three years later, I call them, they are there for me.”
