If one of the first laws you try to pass is to legalize bribes lower than $50k to save your party leader and his cronies, it means that you deceived your voters.

Bribing was never on the table to be decriminalized, just negligence while serving in a public office.

You can easily masquerade a bribe as negligence.

Whoops, I just found $50k on my public office. I'll just take it out of negligence.

"legalize bribes lower than $50k" If you had bothered reading OUG13/2017 you would have found out that a case regarding a lower than 50k becomes a civil case and the damaged is recovered by the state. Honestly read the ordinance and stop making propaganda for PNL/USR or whatever party you want.

Which sets 50 corrupt politicians free to deal with it in a civil court. Yeah right.
