Honestly I think he really believes just about everything that comes out of his mouth.

Who this guy?
I don't know what gif everyone else was watching but Don was clearly ready to pull out his yappa and let it sing sweet melodies. Thank goodness the secret service was around to calm him down. AMAZING

There is Howard Stern audio of him saying he once turned away from a bleeding man in disgust at Mar-a-Lago
“I was at Mar-a-Lago and we had this incredible ball, the Red Cross Ball, in Palm Beach, Florida. And we had the Marines. And the Marines were there, and it was terrible because all these rich people, they’re there to support the Marines, but they’re really there to get their picture in the Palm Beach Post… so you have all these really rich people, and a man, about 80 years old—very wealthy man, a lot of people didn’t like him—he fell off the stage,” said Trump.
Trump proceeds to explain that it was a $100,000-per-table fundraiser filled with deep-pocketed billionaires, and that the Marines were—for whatever reason—given tables in the very back of the ballroom (“the worst table in the whole place”). Oh, and that he was more preoccupied with his ballroom’s pristine marble floor than the octogenarian bleeding out on it.
“So what happens is, this guy falls off right on his face, hits his head, and I thought he died. And you know what I did? I said, ‘Oh my God, that’s disgusting,’ and I turned away,” said Trump. “I couldn’t, you know, he was right in front of me and I turned away. I didn’t want to touch him… he’s bleeding all over the place, I felt terrible. You know, beautiful marble floor, didn’t look like it. It changed color. Became very red. And you have this poor guy, 80 years old, laying on the floor unconscious, and all the rich people are turning away. ‘Oh my God! This is terrible! This is disgusting!’ and you know, they’re turning away. Nobody wants to help the guy. His wife is screaming—she’s sitting right next to him, and she’s screaming.”
Thank God for the Marines. “What happens is, these 10 Marines from the back of the room… they come running forward, they grab him, they put the blood all over the place—it’s all over their uniforms—they’re taking it, they’re swiping [it], they ran him out, they created a stretcher. They call it a human stretcher, where they put their arms out with, like, five guys on each side,” shared Trump.
“I was saying, ‘Get that blood cleaned up! It’s disgusting!’ The next day, I forgot to call [the man] to say he’s OK,” said Trump, adding of the blood, “It’s just not my thing.”

I know this is wishful thinking but let’s say we got rid of lobbying and placed some sort of cap on money in politics. Would there be any unexpected bad outcomes. Or would this be a key step towards having a democracy that actually serves the majority?

We would have a real democracy if we abolished Lobbying. We should take money out of the media and politics and this country would be immensely better.

It’s really embarrassing how dumb our president is. Trump makes George W Bush look like a Rhodes scholar.

Unless there’s a negative consequence I’m not accounting for, I think this whole Parkland thing should spur another discussion that uses the NRA as the poster child for why lobbying should be abolished. Imo it should become a major part of what we push for to make steps toward a more functional government. In a world where folks are getting richer at an alarming rate, and technology will be used as a means to exploit us if there’s no pushback, this is as important as civil rights and healthcare imo.
Take the money out and these greedy slimeballs we have in office will stick to the financial sectors they belong to, paving the road for real public servants.

Is it even feasible to remove lobbying from politics?
