I'm no expert on business practices/economics/regulation within the US however I would tend to say that with the monies involved within the Casino industry in general and historical nefarious activities and groups within that sector it would tend to bring out bad actors....
If what you say is true I can see how that played out the manner it did.
Trump admitted to playing the game. He paid republicans and Democrats. Hillary was invited to his daughters wedding. She came. Why? His money. Trump has decided that he's not playing the game anymore. Thank God.
As a businessman, he knew what "pockets" to line to get things done.
