Billionaire who funded Clarence Thomas's vacations also gave thousands of dollars to Kyrsten Sinema

6. A Republican contributed the legal limit to Sinema and Manchin and the insinuation seems to be

it's somehow corrupting.

He can't just like Democrats who "buck their party," it has to be a conspiracy theory: because he's a billionaire that $5,000 or so has special corrupting powers and he can tell them what to do and they have to do it forever. It's not as if the Democrats he contributed to weren't "bucking their party" already and only started after receiving those magically corrupting "thousands of dollars." The idea that Joe Manchin, especially, has changed in any way because of campaign contributions is silly -- he's not secretly progressive and only being the way he is because he's bribed.
