I mean, he's correct in that both political parties have been bought and paid for by large corporations for a long time. This shouldn't be news, it should be plainly obvious by now.

One party is openly hostile towards the average citizen. The other puts on a friendly mask for the public but is also hostile towards the average citizen. None of them actually give a fuck about the average person. Trump is exceptionally arrogant and aggressive with his goals, but I promise he is far from the first person to have such goals or to exploit the government system for personal gain. He is the first to be so obvious about it, but it has been happening for decades, hidden under the guise of 'security' and other buzz words.
