not sure where you are getting that I am "unaware" of the corruption, just not sure where you are all getting "oh, the 'degree and magnitude' of corruption is now 'much worse' than it was before" when in fact this isn't something you can back up reasonably so it is just shooting the breeze without anything to back it up with. they are all the same mate, all the same ;)

As far as I can tell, the only way you can assert that trump is precisely no amount more corrupt than any other politician in history is if you're completely unaware of what he's been up to the last 10 years.

That, or you truly deeply believe all acts of corruption are perfectly equivalent regardless of their circumstances.

You insist neither is the case, but i see no other way to reach your conclusions

I can, in fact, back up the assertion that the corruption is much worse now. It's not even difficult. What is the point of lying about something like that?
