If you think AOC and Trump's level of corruption are even within one order of magnitude of each other then you need to seriously question how you evaluate the information you are receiving. Trump is orders of magnitude more self-serving, greedy, full of avarice, corrupt, and debased than any other politician in the U.S. right now. Trump's son-in-law made billions during Trump's Presidency. Trump forced the Secret Service to stay at his hotels while he traveled and charged exorbitant prices. The list of examples goes on. There is nothing remotely comparable about AOC and Trump when it comes to corruption.

  There are instances where both words apply to the same situation. You have a serious deficiency when it comes to applying judgements consistently.

    I'm sorry you feel that way and feel the need to punch down at someone that doesn't adhere to the same logic flow as you may. How do you feel about Hunter Biden's _laptop from hell_ which was touted by the media as Russian disinfo but in recent months the media has in fact confirmed it's not Russian disinfo. It contains by some counts over 1,000 crimes committed by Hunter, his father, his uncle and close confidants. https://bidenlaptopreport.marcopolousa.org/ https://bidenlaptopreport.marcopolousa.org/ I may not like the source or how facts are shown but it's very hard to look away from the train wreck.

      I try to be consistent in my application of judgments. If Hunter committed a crime then I hope the appropriate punishment is given to him. It seems obvious that he benefitted financially when his dad was Vice President. I don’t approve of that sort corruption. I don’t like it when Trump did it or when anyone else does it. I know nothing about Hinter’s laptop but I think it’s likely small potatoes so to speak and is used for political gain in the same way Benghazi was. I think it’s all political theater and merely used to induce outrage porn for the consumers of right wing media. All media use outrage porn to attract viewers and increase revenue. This is not unique to right wing media.
