It's slightly misquoted from a transcript of a speech to Goldman Sachs in 2013, released by wikileaks.
SECRETARY CLINTON: That’s a really interesting question. You know, I would like to see more successful business people run for office. I really would like to see that because I do think, you know, you don’t have to have 30 billion, but you have a certain level of freedom. And there’s that memorable phrase from a former member of the Senate: You can be maybe rented but never bought.
You know, I would like to see more successful business people run for office.
Trump is a successful businessman so while it isn't an exact quote, the spirit is the same.
I think I recall looking into this and discovering it’s not a real quote
Correct. Fake quote. Should be stickied as a shitpost
I could never find sauce for it - shitpost
