And you believe him because...?
- sangnoir 3y agoI believe him because 1. He directed the donations and 2. He has been unable to stop himself from talking/confessing from the very beginning. If his intentions was to shepherd favorable laws, why wouldn't he have donated to Republicans? If you disagree with the feds and don't think that influencing lawmakers was his motive, then I'd appreciate your take on what his motivation could have been. Why wouldn't you believe he is a shallow, privileged, self-important person who cares a lot about how he is perceived, and whose thinking turns out not be all that sophisticated? There is less to him than meets the eye, to quote Tallulah Bankhead.
