Republicans, easily. This doesn't mean there's absolutely no corruption in the Democratic party, just that it doesn't compare to the sheer magnitude of GOP corruption.

This. Like, there are a whole bunch of sleazy consultants in Democratic circles, but Republicans are openly just taking public funds for themselves.

If you think both parties are the same, you're buying into Russian propaganda. That was specifically one of the things they sought to use as a wedge issue.

Have you ever even read Nune's memo? They literally paid Russians to write bullshit about a political candidate.

Oh and don't forget about the primaries. The DNC couldn't care less about your votes.

That's not even what the Nunes memo alleges

They both are corrupt and are actually very similar in terms of political idealogies. Back when Obama was in office, the democrats REALLY started to 'corrupt' themselves and it continues to this day.

Policy changes, giving the federal government more power (when they were in power), manipulating primaries, etc.

Yeah, I'd say this sums it up. Neither are saints in the slightest, but it's definitely not "same thing both sides"

*sound of a cash register*
BAH GAWD THAT's ANDREW CUOMO's MUSIC!

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/24/nyregion/cuomo-fund-raising-ethics-appointees.html

In late November, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo flew to Buffalo for a fund-raising trip, a quick two-stop jaunt that brought in more than $200,000 in donations for his re-election campaign.

The events, one at an Embassy Suites hotel and the other a more intimate gathering at a private residence, were hosted by two men familiar to Mr. Cuomo and to state government.

One host, Steven J. Weiss, had been appointed by Mr. Cuomo to the New York State Housing Finance Agency in 2011 and the state board of the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in 2016. Government records show that Mr. Weiss has donated $53,000 to the governors campaign since being picked for the housing agency.

The other, Kenneth A. Manning, had been named by Mr. Cuomo to the same cancer research institute board in 2015, as well as another public authority. Records show that Mr. Manning has donated $50,500 since his appointments.

That type of arrangement appointments go out, campaign cash comes back in has vexed government reformers in Albany for generations. Things were supposed to change in 2007, when Eliot L. Spitzer, then the newly elected governor, issued an executive order barring most appointees from donating to or soliciting donations for the governor who made the appointment. Mr. Cuomo renewed the order on his first day in office.

But a New York Times investigation found that the Cuomo administration has quietly reinterpreted the directive, enabling him to collect about $890,000 from two dozen of his appointees. Some gave within days of being appointed.

The governor also has accepted $1.3 million from the spouses, children and businesses of appointees, state records show.

In some cases, a husband and wife each won state appointments and then kept contributing. In others, the appointees stopped donating after receiving state posts, but their families continued writing checks. One appointee and his wife donated 11 times while he was serving. Another has given Mr. Cuomo, personally and through companies tied to him, more than $500,000.
