Not only did Donald Trump spend his campaign telling bold faced lies, but he was apparently preparing not just for lobbying influence, but lobbying influence by foreign governments.

The article linked below discusses how former US Senator Bob Dole was hired by the Taiwanese government to influence our government. This is a really big deal given that Trump took a call from the Taiwanese President and had upset China in the process.

Instead of “draining the swamp,” as Trump promised during his campaign, he is going the opposite direction by employing industry and political insiders and allowing unprecedented levels of outside influence.
