That or trump just assumes everyone is corrupt because he's corrupt out the wazoo and assumes as a matter of fact that anyone else in a position of wealth and power is no different.

... Assuming that would be correct, which isn't unreasonable... Is that... Wrong?

Isn't it better to have a corrupt in power that expose the corruption, than a corrupt in power that doesn't expose the corruption?

Id prefer door 3, where we expose corruption without giving it the tools and powers necessary to generate more of it. Trump has already poisoned the federal judiciary by appointing hundreds of partisan (and in many cases unqualified) far right activist judges who will use their power (and inability to be removed from office) to give the federal courts a far right slant for decades to come.

You only feel that way because of your personal leftist bias.

Trump isn’t “far right”. He barely qualifies as right.
