That is another major problem we should take to account when talking with people.

Just looking at opensecrets we can see who is being being legally bried.

Bribery is an effort to buy power, while lobbying is just an effort to influence it; but admittedly, the distinction between the two can be opaque.

which has already put him on the wrong side of history on a number of issues.

I disagree with this, and I would go farther that he has shown great moral principles over his many decades of journalism.
