Outsider candidates in both parties have bemoaned what they believe is a crooked campaign system, from the outsets of their campaigns. On the Democratic side, socialist Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders has been a staunch opponent of big money in politics. Sanders often boasts to supporters that he is the only candidate without a Super PAC — a claim that the Washington Post has found to be misleading at best. However, Sanders’ campaign has mostly thrived on numerous smaller, individual donations.
Donald Trump takes a similar approach to big money and Super PACs as Sanders, but also has a unique perspective — he used to be one of those big donors buying influence.

Watch ONE AMERICA NEWS (OANN) they are the only ones who are reporting on it. But they aren’t like the Fox News or mainstream media where they have their own political agendas. They commericals are about actual history. Now they do have shows that talk about different issues but they let you know about them. But for real news and what is happening in the world watch them.
You show us the money trail, and maybe then we’ll talk, but Trump didn’t pay a damn thing to Carson. (But Cruz did pay Fiorina.)
