This part here struck me funny .
"party affiliation really didn't matter to him at all. Whoever was in a position to do favors for him and his businesses, he funneled money to them"
Isn't this what Trump has done throughout the years?

Thanks.

There is a difference between Trump and Hughes funneling money, though. Hughes would bribe politicians unabashedly. In his later years, he would even tell people that there no man that he couldn't buy. Trump, as far as I know, doesn't have a reputation for bribing politicians. No doubt he has made political contributions to politicians from both parties. But there is no reason to believe that he has tried to bribe any.
