Helping the Republican party by voicing highly legitimate concerns about the flow of money to a past President's direct personal coffers and charitable foundations, whose wife is now running for the office of the Presidency and getting a lot of campaign money from some of the same people who provided that money? The loony book doesn't matter - some of this is just everyday business for her campaign, and the campaigns of may other major politicians.
If that's helping the Republican party, then I guess we can't speak about the corrupting influence of big money in politics anymore. Which means that there's no point supporting one party vs. another, since none of it will matter if big money is able to legally bribe our elected officials.
