Usually you wait until the current administration is given credit for best/worst anything. However the Mick Mulvaney thing just put me over the top with this Trump regime. MM gives so little a fuck and Trump has set such a tone he admitted in public in a crowded room where he new press was there, he engages in pay to play. He admitted he doesn't talk to people who haven't donated. IMO the Trump administration is the most corrupt in modern history by a landslide. I'm basing that answer on what we know to date. If you disagree select the more corrupt administration and state why. A tribal box check is just being lazy. I'll define modern history as back to JFK

At first I was going to pick Nixon's administration, but most of its problems stemmed from a small group. With Trump, you can assume that virtually everyone in his cabinet is either corrupt or was chosen to fit a corrupt agenda (sometimes both).

You know people are delusional when they vote the least corrupt admin by any measure in modern history as the most.

Propaganda works. This totally supports my pont in the other thread. Never in my life have I witnessed such a concentrated effort of batshit paranoid delusional hysteria as there was over Obama. And I'm 50.

Nixon was corrupt about some things and hired some corrupt people. Trump is corrupt by nature in everything and has a policy of hiring the incompetent and corrupt.

IMO there's no comparison.

Exactly, there's a difference between an administration in which corruption is present (Nixon), corruption is prevalent (Reagan), and corruption is a requirement (Trump).

For the most part, the corrupt scoundrels that Nixon surrounded himself were, at the very least, qualified for their jobs and highly competent (though dangerously so) people. Trump can't even manage that, so it only makes things worse. I don't know of Nixon willingly obtaining stolen intelligence from foreign agencies to help dismantle a central US institution like free and fair elections, so regardless of everything else, that alone probably puts Trump on top, I think.

It's the combination of corrupt + incompetent under the campaigning promise of hiring "THE BEST PEOPLE" that puts this administration into uncharted levels of shithole administrations.

After your post in the world press freedom thread I'd cut back on using stupid.

How do you spell skew?

Comparing Trump at 16 months vs Obama at 52 months. Add to that source of poll?

Even if Trump were out polling Obama you guys have successfully managed to alter the standards set for the Negro. Congrats.

Tan suit, no flag pin, outrage!!
Opine about killing a citizen in the streets, beat up that black protestor, meh!

Meh, I mixed up those polls with approval polls. I would say voting for Trump was the far greater act of stupidity and way more consequential.

People make mistakes, but negroes? Tan jackets and flag pins? If you are going full race card you might see who you are attacking and what is really going on. K?
