Entirely believable.
If democracy was easy, everybody would do it. I hope this inspires people to work harder, join, contribute, talk to their neighbors, build community. We have to get money out of politics. The only way to do that is to get rid of everybody who takes money.
Ironically, many Members would love that. They suck off the donor class and do their bidding in self-defense: it is the only way to be in office and maybe do a fraction of good. If we eliminated the bribery they would be freed to do more good things. Many of them started out just like us. They were not born bad people, they were corrupted by a corrupt system. We may need to burn them out -- Chuck Schumer is not our friend, and I can't imagine ANY Republican is anything more than either a cynical power grabber or worse a true believer psychopath. But the first step is criminalizing all bribery.
