Donald Trump asked Big Oil CEOs to donate $1 billion to his campaign in exchange for deregulation and even lower taxes.

He's reportedly holding a fundraiser with Texas oil execs today.

Money in politics has always corrupted. But never has it been this brazen.

@rbreich He's fallen woefully short. Democrats are still raising bigger money. And from small donors...

@rbreich

When I heard this I imagined Trump promising to dynamite all the windmills.

@rbreich when you post things like this, I think some people would like a source. Date/time, press conference/rally/debate, or something that could point us in the direction of where the info is coming from.

I know I would like it if sources were included. Thanks!

@rbreich This seems... illegal?

@rbreich It has long been said the US has the best democracy money can buy

@rbreich
Well, he already bought a Supreme Court that says that bribery is just fine.
