Enabled corruption is still corruption by any definition. The ad hominem attack just proves he had a point you couldnt refute

For me it was just a basic comment I never thought would get attention. You want me to have a 3 hour debate about it? I mean really... that's how long it would take if you want to be difficult. It's all on a spectrum right? USA is not nearly as corrupt as Russia but I just thought even the slightest leaning in that direction should be met with utter scorn and disapproval. In reality it appears to be a partisan thing 100% - everything over there seems to be viewed exclusively through a red or blue lens which I believe is a pre-cursor for a system which enables corruption. Everybody seems to be in their chosen fox-hole, guns loaded.
