Conflicts of interest are conflicts regardless of party. Why did GOP party bosses tolerate representatives investing in pharma for so long? Voters won't. Wait and see what happens in both parties' remaining primaries and in November. #divestorresign

The GOP would not be losing this seat if someone had primaried @RepChrisCollins as soon as it became public that he was investing in pharma. Instead corrupt party chairmen protect politicians with conflicts of interest, while sweeping their own scandals under the rug.
MAGA trolls and other paid trolls are already politicizing this issue. See below. No wonder voters are sick and tired of politics. Catch a politician with his or her hand in the million dollar cookie jar and they attack the messenger.
The latest strategy of MAGA trolls and other party hacks is to attack candidates challenging incumbents because they have private sector employment and other clients BEFORE they enter Congress. In other words they work for a living instead of stock jobbing in Congress.
