    You're crazy if you think it's these guys cutting deals with the big P directly. It's more like the NRA, the Heritage Foundation, the Carlyle Group, some Koch org, or other billionaires.

    The politicians are just the mouth pieces and button pushers.

    That 14 republicans went to see Putin is the exception, not the rule. Normally they don't expose that relationship and keep it going via middlemen.
