But Trump was on a whole different level when it comes to corruption or nepotism.
Oh, I agree. I just, as always, like to point out to the resident puritans how their people are hardly paragons of virtue themselves.

I don't know how much I agree with that, in this context. Minimizing the grift of others by pointing out the extremities of Trump can just as easily be seen as minimizing their actions
