It's not organized crime. That's a Republican thing.

When he ran for his first term, President Obama received a record amount of donations from Wall Street. Did he refuse to regulate Wall Street? No he did not. His reelection campaign didn't receive so many donations from Wall Street. That's the way it goes. Thugs with baseball bats are not coming around to break anyone's knees because somebody made donations to a campaign and was disappointed.
