HBO Axios Interviews Trump

When Shelby first won office as a Democrat, he had a modest net worth. He flipped parties, and lo and behold, he's now a multi-millionaire. Shelby stayed popular because of the financial "perks" he got for the state, but somehow he got rich doing it.

Shelby didn't get rich because he switched parties, nor did he switch parties to get rich. He switched parties to protect his seat because he knew how "red" Alabama was becoming. There are plenty of "well off" democrats in congress.

This is correct. He also delayed his switch in order to protect some of his staff members, which I respected...

Did I say no Dems exploit being in the Senate for personal gain? I don't think so.

Keeping up with current events is almost like being addicted to bad news that makes you mad. I'm so starved for good news I just keep watching.

I would recommend things like UpliftingNews & HumansBeingBros on reddit if you happen to use it. It’s nice to see some of the good stories amid all the crazy.

I'm glad to see someone in the media has finally grown a pair and challenged trump in real time on his lies and stupidity. Unfortunately the trumpies will either ignore it or just write it off again as the media being unfair to him, boo hoo.
