I don’t know which type of corruption I prefer to be honest, Democratic corruption where Nancy Pelosi has $240m net worth on a salary of $233k or Donald Trump MAGA GOP corruption whose son in law received $2bn from Saudi for reasons unknown.

It seems not much changes but the names and the bank account balances.




Maybe I can help you:

  You don´t have to whitewash one bad with some other bad.

The USA has lots of problems. Nancy would at least still respect the constitution and adheres to the democratic process. That still leaves you with a weak system, but you should prefer that over a group of people that won't respect the boundaries of the system.


That $240m is the combined net worth of her and her husband.

It's not all that much considering that he founded and has run a successful real estate and venture capital investment firm for over 40 years, and considering that they are both in their 80s which means they have had up to 60 years of investments.
