This is such obviously corrupt behavior. I still have no idea why anyone is still playing along with it. The world needs to be unified in its rejection of everything Trump represents.

Because the USA is the most powerful country, both militarily and economically?

And politicians have become spineless yes men.

It's the same reason most of the political class give in to corruption. Money. He's just doing what oligarchs do domestically on an international scale.

Money is also why most people refuse to strike, or do anything that might rock the boat. We're all so pampered we have abandoned all the morals and ethics we virtue signal for selfish, temporary comfort.
