West Virginia Governor Jim Justice, now running for the Senate, is a nine-figure deadbeat.
“ Jim Justice, the businessman-turned-politician governor of West Virginia, has been pursued in court for years by banks, governments, business partners and former employees for millions of dollars in unmet obligations.

The son of a coal magnate, Mr. Justice took over the family business in 1993 and expanded its interests beyond coal, with acquisitions in agriculture and high-end hospitality. Like many sprawling enterprises, the Justice companies have taken on prodigious debts. But they have also taken on a reputation for not paying them — and that may be catching up to them.

A bank in neighboring Virginia that has served the Justice family for decades has begun the process of collecting on more than $300 million in defaulted loans. Some of the family business’s prized assets, chief among them the 246-year-old Greenbrier resort, are in the bank’s sights, and collections on the governor’s personal bank accounts and even his house are now a possibility. Efforts have already been underway in Virginia to seize properties belonging to Mr. Justice’s son, James C. Justice III, the president of the family companies.”

He's continually stiffed small businesses, driving one excavator company owner into bankruptcy. He's defaulted on loans to a small bank in southern VA. He's late on loans to JP Morgan and the former Credit Suisse.

It's absurd that this guy has been Governor for two terms in WV. He's spent his entire lifetime screwing over WV workers and small biz owners. He's an absurd, thieving clown masquerading as a "business man."

With all these bullet points on his resume, he should be on the short list for Trump's VP.

Is that every one of the GOP hopefuls for U.S. Senate in Michigan? I expected better from some of these guys.

This isn't corruption per se, but when Citizens United was struck down by the courts because limiting money is "limiting speech," it paved the way for a corrupt court and a corrupt system that created the oligarch class in the US:

Which basically means it take a Liliputon effort to stand up to this big money in politics. And if you think ANY of these billionaires care about the working class, working conditions, education , health care etc, you can forget it. They got theirs and are now trying to use the government tp insulate themselves permanently from the ills if the planet.
